An ensemble framework for identifying essential proteins
(2016-08-25)
Background: Many centrality measures have been proposed to mine and characterize the correlations between network topological properties and protein essentiality. However, most of them show limited prediction accuracy, and ...
Predicting Essential Genes and Proteins Based on Machine Learning and Network Topological Features: A Comprehensive Review
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2016-03-08)
Essential proteins/genes are indispensable to the survival or reproduction of an organism, and the deletion of such essential proteins will result in lethality or infertility. The identification of essential genes is very ...
Sunflower protein films incorporated with clove essential oil have potential application for the preservation of fish patties
(Elsevier, 2013-08)
The incorporation of sunflower protein films with clove essential oil and the application of the resulting materials on the preservation of sardine patties were studied. The addition of clove essential oil to formulations ...
On the dynamical incompleteness of the Protein Data Bank
(Oxford University Press, 2017-07)
Major scientific challenges that are beyond the capability of individuals need to be addressed by multi-disciplinary and multi-institutional consortia. Examples of these endeavours include the Human Genome Project, and ...
Nutritional quality evaluation of Whitemouth croaker (Micropogonias furnieri) protein isolate
(2014-01-01)
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to isolate Whitemouth croaker protein by alkaline solubilization process and evaluate their nutritional quality to evaluate the bioavailability of essential amino acids. Design/meth ...
Composition and Functional Properties of Lupinus campestris Protein Isolates
(2012-11-25)
Protein isolates from L. campestris and soybean seeds were prepared using isoelectric precipitation (PI) and micellization (MI) proce dures. The amount of protein recovered was considerably higher with the ...
Genetic interactions of yeast eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5a (eIF5A) reveal connections to poly(A)-binding protein and protein kinase C signaling
(2002-03-14)
The highly conserved eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF5A has been proposed to have various roles in the cell, from translation to mRNA decay to nuclear protein export. To further our understanding of this essential ...
Protein turnover, amino acid requirements and recommendations for athletes and active populations
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2012)
Skeletal muscle is the major deposit of protein molecules. As for any cell or tissue, total muscle protein reflects a dynamic turnover between net protein synthesis and degradation. Noninvasive and invasive techniques have ...
Involvement of Glutathione, Sulfhydryl Compounds, Nitric Oxide, Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide, and Heat-Shock Protein-70 in the Gastroprotective Mechanism of Croton cajucara Benth. (Euphorbiaceae) Essential Oil
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc., 2011-09-01)
This study aimed to evaluate the gastroprotective mechanism of action of the essential oil of Croton cajucara Benth. (Euphorbiaceae) stem bark in ethanol-induced gastric ulcers and its in vitro anti-Helicobacter pylori ...
