Methodology was developed for presenting to fish cells in culture whole-water samples without extraction and used to evaluate the toxicity to a rainbow trout gill cell line, RTgill-W1, of more than 30 whole-water samples collected from a paper mill over ap ...
Structure and dynamics of substrate binding (cefotaxime) to the catalytic pocket of the mononuclear zinc-beta-lactamase from Bacillus cereus are investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The calculations, which are based on the hydrogen-bond pattern ...
The Nef protein of primate lentiviruses downregulates the cell surface expression of CD4 through a two-step process. First, Nef connects the cytoplasmic tail of CD4 with adaptor protein complexes (AP), thereby inducing the formation of CD4-specific clathri ...
A biocompatible interface was constructed on a microchip by using the layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly of charged polysaccharides incorporating proteases for highly efficient proteolysis. The controlled assembly of natural polyelectrolytes and the enzyme-adso ...
Gene transfer vectors derived from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) efficiently transduce nondividing cells and remain stably integrated in their genome. Long-term expression of reporter genes has been documented after intracerebral injection of these ...
BACKGROUND: The HIV Nef protein downregulates CD4 through sequential connection with clathrin-coated pits and the COP1 coatomer, resulting in accelerated endocytosis and lysosomal targeting. RESULTS: Here we report that the small GTPase ARF1 controls the N ...
The synthesis of 46 derivatives of (2R,3R,4S)-2-(aminomethyl)pyrrolidine-3,4-diol is reported (Scheme I and Fig. 3), and their inhibitory activities toward alpha-mannosidases from jack bean (B) and almonds (A) are evaluated (Table). ne most-potent inhibito ...
Through the reductive amination of N-[(tert-butoxy) carbonyl]-2,5-dideoxy-2,5-imino-3,4-O-isopropylidene-L-ribose with tetramethylenediamine, hexamethylenediamine, 2,7-diaminofluorene, 4,4'-diaminodiphenylmethane and 1,4-(diaminomethyl) benzene, five tetra ...
Tyrosinase is a type I membrane protein found in melanosomes, which are lysosomal-like organelles and specific for pigment cells. A mutation of mouse tyrosinase, platinum (cp), leads to truncation of tyrosinase's cytosolic tail, and results in misrouting t ...
We present a method that allows the on-demand release and mixing of zepto- to femtoliter vols. of solns. in the interior of vesicular nanoreactors. The reactors comprise a nested system of lipid vesicles, part of which release their cargo in the interior o ...
