  1. The role of γ-polyglutamic acid in a circular economy: cost-effective production and wide-ranging applications of a bio-derived, biodegradable, and nonimmunogenic biomaterial

    Parati, MattiaUniversity of Wolverhampton2025

    … of biodegradable constructs. Poly-γ-glutamic acid (γ-PGA) is an anionic pseudo polypeptide produced by several microorganisms, especially members of the Bacillus species. γ-PGA is synthesised through several enzymes and complexes which racemise and polymerise L- glutamic acid or D- glutamic …

  2. The Distribution of Bone Sialoprotein in Bone Mineralization

    Plummer, Christopher T.Southwest Texas State University2002

    … (RGD) cell attachment region and three polyglutamic acid regions. These two regions of the protein are thought to have an active role in bone mineralization. The RGD region has been shown to bind integrins on the surface of osteoblasts. The negative charge of the glutamic acid regions …

  3. The Potential Role for CapB in Pathogenesis of Francisella tularensis

    Fleming, Eric2014

    … which, under certain conditions, creates a polyglutamic acid capsule (PGA). A transposon mutation in the amide ligase (capB) in LVS has a reduced virulence in murine infection models. I wished to investigate whether Francisella novicida was capable of producing such a capsule and under which …

  5. Direct Force Measurements on the Colloidal Scale: From Modified Electrodes to Particle Manipulation

    Kuznetsov, VolodymyrUniversität Bayreuth

    … It has been demonstrated that films containing polyglutamic acid have Young’s modulus, which depends on humidity. The change of stiffness with ambient humidity has reversible character.
