Recombinant Goose Circoviruses Circulating in Domesticated and Wild Geese in Poland
Circoviruses are circular single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) viruses that infect a variety of animals, both domestic and wild. Circovirus infection in birds is associated with immunosuppression and this in turn predisposes the infected animals to secondary ...

The Evolutionary Dynamics of the Mitochondrial tRNA in the Cichlid Fish Family
The mitochondrial transfer RNA genes (tRNAs) attract more attention due to their highly dynamic and rapidly evolving nature. The current study aimed to detect and evaluate the dynamics, characteristic patterns, and variations of mitochondrial tRNAs.

Nature of the glassy phase of RNA secondary structure
We characterize the low temperature phase of a simple model for RNA secondary structures by determining the typical energy scale E(l) of excitations involving l bases. At zero temperature, we find a scaling law E(l) \sim l^\theta with \theta \approx 0.23,

Effect of oxidative treatment on the secondary structure of decoloured bloodmeal [PDF]
Bloodmeal can be decoloured using peracetic acid resulting in a material with a pale-yellow colour which only needs sodium dodecyl sulphate, water and triethylene glycol to extrude into a semi-transparent bioplastic.

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

A Simple Comparison between Specific Protein Secondary Structure Prediction Tools
A comparative evaluation of five widely used protein secondary structure prediction programs available in World Wide Web was carried out. Secondary structure data of ten proteins containing 190 secondary structure motifs were collected from Protein Data ...

Jackfruit leaf protein concentrate (LPC) was hydrolyzed by pepsin (H–Pep) and pancreatin (H–Pan) at different hydrolysis times (30–240 min). The effect of the enzyme type and hydrolysis time of the LPC on the amino acid composition, structure, and ...

Secondary Structure of Butyrylcholinesterase
Objective: Butyrylcholinesterase, a protein from the esterase family of enzymes, has been shown to modulate the expression of insulin resistance syndrome. In order to identify related proteins with more well established functions, the current in silico work was done to delineate the secondary structure of the enzyme and compare it with other proteins ...

Linkers of secondary structures in proteins [PDF]
AbstractLinkers that connect repeating secondary structures fall into conformational classes based on distance and main‐chain torsion clustering. A data set of 300 unique protein chains with low pairwise sequence identity was clustered into only a few groups representing the preferred motifs.

A stepwise emergence of evolution in the RNA world
How did biological evolution emerge from chemical reactions? This perspective proposes a gradual scenario of self‐organization among RNA molecules, where catalytic feedback on random mixtures plays the central role. Short oligomers cross‐ligate, and self‐assembly enables heritable variations. An event of template‐externalization marks the transition to
