The interaction of ELKS with Ca2+ channel β subunits may contribute to active zone organization
… a synaptic role for the interaction of these two proteins. Analysis of a P/Q-type VDCC knockout mouse (Cacna1a-/-) revealed that the localization of the VDCC β4 subunit to the molecular layer was disrupted, although ELKS1b protein localization was not affected. The results demonstrate that two …

Excitation evolution and self-regulation ability of photosynthetic light-harvesting systems /
… of the light-harvesting antenna and its proteins. Analysis of the time-resolved temperature-dependent fluorescence spectra of LHCII aggregates revealed several distinct intrinsic states of LHCII complexes and provided possibility to connect each state with its underlying molecular …

Characterization of Class D VPS Proteins
… step in the VPS pathway. The Class D VPS proteins are thought to control anterograde traffic between the late Golgi and late endosome. Although most of these proteins have homologues of known function in other systems, two exceptions are the Vps3p and Vps8p proteins. Analysis of Vps3p …

Identification and Characterization of Helper Phage Gene Products Involved in Mobilization of Staphylococcal Pathogenicity Island SaPI1
… does not reveal any obvious phage structural proteins, has led to the hypothesis that SaPIl is encapsidated in a virion comprised of 80α structural proteins. Analysis of SaPIl transducing particles supports this hypothesis. Further investigation of 80α genes involved in SaPI1 mobilization was …

Site-directed mutagenesis of the ncd microtubule motor protein
Ncd is a member of the kinesin family of motor proteins. Ncd is involved in the processes of meiosis and early mitosis in <i>D. melanogaster</i>. PCR-mediated site-directed mutagenesis was utilized to introduce specific mutations into pET/MC6, a construct containing the motor domain of ncd. Six …

Identification of an aqueous glue protein, SCP-2, and the development of a polyclonal antiserum against the bHLH transcription factor SGSF in Latrodectus Hesperus
… peptide on the fibers is supported by MS/MS analysis. Using quantitative real-time PCR analysis, we also demonstrate that SCP-2 has a flagelliform-restricted mRNA pattern of expression. Molecular modeling of the SCP-2 amino acid sequence predicts it adopts an alpha-helical structure that is …

Using a complex model of sequence evolution to evaluate and improve phylogenetic methods
… were generated under the model described here. Analysis of the spectra of the generating model and the model of inference suggest slight alterations to the general time-reversible model that may improve its performance.

Cooperativity of ligand binding as a function of monomer-dimer equilibrium Parameters and Acceptor Concentration
<p>A general monomer-dimer equilibrium system involving ligand interactions is presented. Cooperativity features of specific limited models are analyzed by selecting the appropriate family of equilibrium constants from this general scheme. Each system is then characterized in terms of Hill …

The Genetic basis of resistance and susceptibility in the Albugo laibachii-Arabidopsis thaliana pathosystem
… It is postulated that Al secretes effector proteins. Analysis of the A. laibachii genome by Kemen et al, (2011, PLoS Biology) revealed a potential class of effectors with a ‘CHXC’ motif in their N-terminus that can mediate translocation into host cells. However, there are only ~35 CHXC …

The analysis of a conserved RNA structure in the 3D polymerase encoding region of Human Parechovirus 1
… is cleaved into structural and non-structural proteins. Analysis of one region of the genome (encoding the polymerase, 3Dpol) shows that some codons are perfectly conserved, suggesting functions in addition to protein coding. This region seems to fold into an RNA secondary structure made up of …

CHARACTERIZATION OF THE EUKARYOTIC TRANSLATION INITIATION FACTOR 4E (eIF4E) FAMILY MEMBERS IN THE ZEBRAFISH (Danio rerio)
… a process inhibited by eIF4E binding proteins such as the 4E-BPs and other eIF4E interactive proteins. Analysis of eIF4E sequences from the twenty fish genomes currently available, as well as those of echinoderm, tunicate and cephalocordate, has allowed a glimpse of the origins and …

Evaluating the potential of phosphorous recovery from wet milling and dry grind corn facilities using chemical precipitation
… is poorly understood. Lab-scale experimental analysis was conducted over a wide range of pH values and calcium to phosphorous molar ratios and results have shown substantial potential for chemical precipitation to recover phosphorous from these side streams. Our analysis for light steep and …

Structural Studies of Scallop Abductin, a Compressible Elastomer that Translates Hydrophobic Interactions to Elasticity
<p>Abductin is a natural elastomer found as the major component of the elastic hinge ligament in marine scallops. Until now, very little was known about the structure and function of this compressible elastomer. Biochemical studies of a synthetic 25 amino acid peptide of abductin produces fibers …
