resido: an R package for exploring amino acid residue composition of peptide and protein sequences

Frontiers in Horticulture
Amino acid composition may be used in synthetic biology for fine-tuning amino acid content of plants to improve human or animal diets. One barrier to plant-based diet adoption is insufficiency of key amino acids such as methionine and lysine.

The effect of storage on the amino acids composition in potato tubers

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2010
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of storage duration on amino acids content in potato tubers. Tubers of six cultivars were stored for 16 weeks. Crude protein was determined by the Kjeldahl method.

Sulfur-containing amino acids and their metabolites in atrial fibrosis

Frontiers in Pharmacology, 2022
Atrial fibrosis, a symbol of atrial structural remodelling, is a complex process involved in the occurrence and maintenance of atrial fibrillation (AF). Atrial fibrosis is regulated by multiple factors. Sulfur containing amino acids and their metabolites,

Local softness, softness dipole and polarizabilities of functional groups: application to the side chains of the twenty amino acids

, 2009
The values of molecular polarizabilities and softnesses of the twenty amino acids were computed ab initio (MP2). By using the iterative Hirshfeld scheme to partition the molecular electronic properties, we demonstrate that the values of the softness of ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Impact of methionine nutrition on the leaf proteome of Lupinus angustifolius L. and Vicia faba L. [PDF]

, 2011
Grain legumes possess a gernerally favourable seed protein amino acid composition but low contents of sulfur amino acids decrease their nutrient value. To enhance the methionie content of local grain legumes by plant breeding, phenotypical attributes for

Sulphur-isotope compositions of pig tissues from a controlled feeding study [PDF]

, 2017
Sulphur-isotope determinations are becoming increasingly useful for palaeodietary reconstruction, but knowledge of isotopic discrimination between diet and various tissues remains inadequate. In this study, we explore the sensitivity of δ34Stissue values

Advancing Electronic Application of Coordination Solids: Enhancing Electron Transport and Device Integration via Surface‐Mounted MOFs (SURMOFs)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The layer‐by‐layer (LbL) assembly of coordination solids, enabled by the surface‐mounted metal‐organic framework (SURMOF) platform, is on the cusp of generating the organic counterpart of the epitaxy of inorganics. The programmable and sequential SURMOF protocol, optimized by machine learning (ML), is suited for accessing high‐quality thin films of ...
