Rubredoxin Variant Folds without Iron [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Pyroccocus furiosus rubredoxin (PFRD), like most studied hyperthermophilic proteins, does not undergo reversible folding. The irreversibility of folding is thought to involve PFRD’s iron-binding site.

Enhancing subtilisin thermostability through a modified normalized B-factor analysis and loop-grafting strategy

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2019
Rational design–guided improvement of protein thermostability typically requires identification of residues or regions contributing to instability and introduction of mutations into these residues or regions. One popular method, B-FIT, utilizes B-factors

SCHEMA Recombination of a Fungal Cellulase Uncovers a Single Mutation That Contributes Markedly to Stability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
A quantitative linear model accurately (R^2 = 0.88) describes the thermostabilities of 54 characterized members of a family of fungal cellobiohydrolase class II (CBH II) cellulase chimeras made by SCHEMA recombination of three fungal enzymes ...

Two strategies to engineer flexible loops for improved enzyme thermostability

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Flexible sites are potential targets for engineering the stability of enzymes. Nevertheless, the success rate of the rigidifying flexible sites (RFS) strategy is still low due to a limited understanding of how to determine the best mutation candidates ...

Thermostability as a highly dependent prion strain feature

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2019
Prion diseases are caused by the conversion of physiological PrPC into the pathogenic misfolded protein PrPSc, conferring new properties to PrPSc that vary upon prion strains.

Optimizing enzyme thermostability by combining multiple mutations using protein language model

open access: yesmLife
Optimizing enzyme thermostability is essential for advancements in protein science and industrial applications. Currently, (semi‐)rational design and random mutagenesis methods can accurately identify single‐point mutations that enhance enzyme ...

Gas Atmosphere Formed in Casting by Full Mold Process

open access: yesArchives of Metallurgy and Materials, 2014
A test mold was designed to investigate the full mold process. Pressure changes in a gap developing between the pattern made of foamed polystyrene and the raising column of liquid alloy were determined. Studies were conducted pouring molds with cast iron

Bacteria and bacterial envelope components enhance mammalian reovirus thermostability

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2017
Enteric viruses encounter diverse environments as they migrate through the gastrointestinal tract to infect their hosts. The interaction of eukaryotic viruses with members of the host microbiota can greatly impact various aspects of virus biology ...
