As myofibrils consist of a three-dimensional network of long, solid protein particles with the
shortest dimension of less than 20nm, the theoretical foundations of water-holding in meat …

Background Salt-soluble myofibrillar proteins (MPs) form the major protein component of
meat and have several advantages over plant-derived proteins, including high digestibility …

Pumping of the heart is powered by filaments of the motor protein myosin that pull on actin
filaments to generate cardiac contraction. In addition to myosin, the filaments contain cardiac …

The probability that a residue in a protein is part of a coiled-coil structure was assessed by
comparison of its flanking sequences with sequences of known coiled-coil proteins. This …

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of ω-functionalized long-chain alkanethiolates on gold
films are excellent model systems with which to study the interactions of proteins with …

The complete sequence of the human Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) cDNA has
been determined. The 3685 encoded amino acids of the protein product, dystrophin, can be …

Z/PI is a novel meiosis-specific gene required forchromosome synapsis and cell cycle
progression in S. cerevidae. z/p7 strains undergo homologous chromosome pairing, but are …

Gelatin was obtained from the skin of North Sea horse mackerel (Trachurus trachurus),
using sodium hydrogen carbonate (0.125%), sodium hydroxide (0.2%), sulphuric acid …

The macrophage scavenger receptor is a trimeric membrane glycoprotein with unusual
ligand-binding properties which has been implicated in the development of atherosclerosis …

Abstract The A, B and C lamins are the major proteins of the nuclear envelope. The
complete nucleotide sequence of the coding region of the A and C lamins shows that these …
