Experience has shown that protein redesigns (using the backbone from a known protein structure) are far more likely to produce well-ordered, native-like structures than are true de novo designs. Therefore, to design a four-helix bundle made of identical sh ...
Global folding of polypeptides entering the endoplasmic reticulum ( ER) starts as soon as they emerge from the narrow Sec61 translocon. Attainment of the native structure can take from several minutes to hours, depending on the gene product. Until then, no ...
Transthyretin (TTR) amyloid fibril formation is observed systemically in familial amyloid polyneuropathy and senile systemic amyloidosis and appears to be the causative agent in these diseases. Herein, we demonstrate conclusively that thyroxine (10.8 micro ...
An experimental process that was used to obtain a direct measurement of Thermal Boundary Conductance (TBC) between a diamond substrate and several transition metals, deposited by sputtering, is described. Using Time-Domain ThermoReflectance (TDTR), the cri ...
Commonly used RNA folding programs compute the minimum free energy structure of a sequence under the pseudoknot exclusion constraint. They are based on Zuker's algorithm which runs in time O(n^3). Recently, it has been claimed that RNA folding can be achie ...
RNA interference has become an increasingly important tool for all aspects of molecular biology. Nevertheless, there is a technological challenge for performing gene knock-down with chemical transfection agents, as many relevant cell types are refractory t ...
We present ab initio molecular dynamics studies on liquid water using density functional theory in conjunction with either dispersion-corrected atom-centered potentials or empirical van der Waals corrections. Our results show that improving the description ...
Many low oxidation state transition metal (carbonyl) clusters are salts and are highly soluble in ionic liquids. Since many are also effective catalysts/precatalysts for hydrogenation reactions, we have conducted a catalytic study of these compounds in ion ...
Members of the discoidin (DS) domain family, which includes the C1 and C2 repeats of blood coagulation factors V and VIII, occur in a great variety of eukaryotic proteins, most of which have been implicated in cell-adhesion or developmental processes. So f ...
The use is described of pattern recognition techniques to analyze folded (in w1) 2-dimensional NMR spectra obtained by using the COSY (correlation spectroscopy) technique. A pattern recognition procedure (P. and B., 1986) relying on the comparison of patte ...
