The waste stream of low-grade wool is an underutilized source of keratin-rich materials with
appropriate methods for upcycling into high value-added products still being an open …

Understanding how proteins evolve is important, and the order of amino acids being
recruited into the genetic codons was found to be an important factor shaping the amino acid …

Abstract Manganese ion (Mn 2+) can substitute magnesium ion (Mg 2+) in active sites of
numerous enzymes. Binding sites for these two ions have been studied in two sets of protein …

Intrinsically disordered proteins are frequently involved in important regulatory processes in
the cell thanks to their ability to bind several different targets performing sometimes even …

Oncostatin M (OSM) and leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) are closely related members of the
interleukin-6 (IL-6) cytokine family. Both cytokines share a common origin and structure, and …

Grass carp are highly perishable under the action of spoilage bacteria including Aeromonas
rivipollensis, Pseudomonas putida, and Shewanella putrefaciens. However, the metabolic …

This study is on the analysis of ethanol binding sites on 3D structures of nonredundant
proteins from the Protein Data Bank. The only one amino acid residue that is significantly …

We used 3D structures of a highly redundant set of bacterial proteins encoded by genes of
high, average, and low GC‐content. Four types of connecting bridges—regions situated …

The influence of flanking structures (alpha helices and beta strands in the primary
sequence) on amino acid content of the elements of secondary structure has been analyzed …

Abstract Influenza A/H1N1 virus hemagglutinin (HA) is an integral type I glycoprotein that
contains a large glycosylated ectodomain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail …
