Stability of quinoa flour proteins (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) during storage
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, 2009-10)
P>The amino acid composition and the physicochemical and functional properties of quinoa flour proteins (QFP) were evaluated during storage (at 20, 30 and 40 degrees C). Quinoa flour showed a protein content of 14.2 +/- ...
Effect of mutation at the interface of Trp-repressor dimeric protein: a steered molecular dynamics simulation
(2013)
The strength of key interfacial contacts that
stabilize protein–protein interactions have been studied by
computer simulation. Experimentally, changes in the
interface are evaluated by generating specific mutations ...
Identifying chaotropic and kosmotropic agents by nanorheology
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2018)
Chemical agents are classified into chaotropes (disorder inducing) and kosmotropes (order inducing) based on their ability to destabilize or stabilize, respectively, the structure of hydrated macromolecules and their ...
Mechanical stretch increases L-type calcium channel stability in cardiomyocytes through a polycystin-1/AKT-dependent mechanism
(Elsevier Science BV, 2018)
The L-type calcium channel (LTCC) is an important determinant of cardiac contractility. Therefore, changes in LTCC activity or protein levels could be expected to affect cardiac function. Several studies describing LTCC ...
Mechanical unfolding of a knotted protein unveils the kinetic and thermodynamic consequences of threading a polypeptide chain
(Nature, 2020)
Knots are remarkable topological features in nature. The presence of knots in crystallographic structures of proteins have stimulated considerable research to determine the kinetic and thermodynamic consequences of threading ...
The microencapsulation of maqui (Aristotelia chilensis (mol.) stuntz) juice by spray-drying and freeze-drying produces powders with similar anthocyanin stability and bioaccessibility
(MDPI, 2018)
The microencapsulation of maqui juice by spray-drying and freeze-drying was studied as a strategy to protect anthocyanins in new food formulations in order to improve the anthocyanin retention before consumption and the ...
Self-assembling functional programmable protein array for studying protein-protein interactions in malaria parasites
(2018)
Background: Plasmodium vivax is the most widespread malarial species, causing significant morbidity worldwide. Knowledge is limited regarding the molecular mechanism of invasion due to the lack of a continuous in vitro ...
Characterization of hydroxymethylpyrimidine phosphate kinase from mesophilic and thermophilic bacteria and structural insights into their differential thermal stability
(Elsevier, 2020)
The hydroxymethylpyrimidine phosphate kinases (HMPPK) encoded by the thiD gene are involved in the thiamine biosynthesis pathway, can perform two consecutive phosphorylations of 4-amino-5-hydroxymethyl-2methyl pyrimidine ...
Unusual dimerization of a BcCsp mutant leads to reduced conformational dynamics
(Wiley, 2017)
Cold shock proteins (Csp) constitute a family of ubiquitous small proteins that act as RNA-chaperones to avoid cold-induced termination of translation. All members contain two subdomains composed of 2 and 3 beta-strands, ...
Biochemical and cellular characteristics of the four splice variants of protein kinase CK1 α from zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(2002)
Protein kinase CK1 (previously known as casein kinase I) conforms to a subgroup of the great protein kinase family found in eukaryotic organisms. The CK1 subgroup of vertebrates contains seven members known as α, β, γ1, ...
