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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
Mapping eIF5A binding sites for Dys1 and Lia1: In vivo evidence for regulation of eIF5A hypusination
(2003-12-18)
The evolutionarily conserved factor eIF5A is the only protein known to undergo hypusination, a unique posttranslational modification triggered by deoxyhypusine synthase (Dys1). Although eIF5A is essential for cell viability, ...
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 ...
The Development of a Universal In Silico Predictor of Protein-Protein Interactions
(2013-05-31)
Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are essential for understanding the function of biological systems and have been characterized using a vast array of experimental techniques. These techniques detect only a small proportion ...
An Overview of the Role of Molecular Chaperones in Protein Homeostasis
(Bentham Science Publ LtdSharjahEmirados Árabes Unidos, 2011)
ZmPUMP encodes a fully functional monocot plant uncoupling mitochondrial protein whose affinity to fatty acid is increased with the introduction of a His pair at the second matrix loop
(2006-05-26)
Uncoupling proteins (UCPs) are specialized mitochondrial transporter proteins that uncouple respiration from ATP synthesis. In this study, cDNA encoding maize uncoupling protein (ZmPUMP) was expressed in Escherichia coli ...
