Apolipoprotein M – Studies of Structure and Function
… suggested to be involved in the formation of and adding to the antiatherogenic functions of HDL, but its function is still not completely known. ApoM has been suggested to be a lipokalin. By studies in vitro using recombinant apoM we were able to show that apoM shares the ligand-binding …

Structure and function of V1b vasopressin receptor
… belonging to the Family A GPCR superfamily. The structures of seven α-helical transmembrane domains of this family members can be predicted based on the crystal structure of bovine rhodopsin (bRho) and human β2 adrenergic receptor (β2AR) obtained by X-ray crystallography. This study aimed to …

Structure and Function of Bordetella Transcription Factor BpsR
… matrix composed of polysaccharides, proteins, and extracellular DNA. They help bacteria persist, resist and evade host immune response. In Bordetella, the Bordetella polysaccharide (Bps) is a crucial polysaccharide component of a mature biofilm. Bps production is controlled by the bps locus. …

Structure and function of potassium and calcium channels
In this thesis, potassium channels human Kv2.1 and rat Kv2.1, along with calcium channels Ca, 1.2, Ca, 3.1, and chimeras have been studied. These channels were expressed in Xenopuso ocytesf or electrophysiological experiments using two electrode voltage clamp. For protein expression studies,DNA was …

Structure and Function Studies on tRNA Splicing Endonuclease
… out to become mature molecules capable of functioning in translation. This essential processing step is performed by tRNA splicing endonuclease (TSEN), a highly conserved heterotetramer with two catalytic and two structural subunits. In addition to this conserved function, archaeal TSEN …

Linking structure and function of complex cortical networks
The recent discovery of an intricate and nontrivial interaction topology among the elements of a wide range of natural systems has altered the manner we understand complexity. For example, the axonal fibres transmitting electrical information between cortical regions form a network which is neither …

STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF A NEURONAL GLUTAMATE TRANSPORTER
… transporters have a homotrimeric subunit structure with a large central water-filled cavity that extends partially into the plane of the lipid bilayer (Yernool et al., 2004). In addition to uptake of glutamate, the transporters also mediate a chloride conductance that is gated by Na+ and …

Structure and function of class I diterpene synthase
<p>Abietadiene synthase from Abies grandis (AgAS) has served as a model for investigation of diterpene synthase activity, and here we report its crystal structure at 2.3 Å resolution. This bifunctional enzyme catalyzes both class I (ionization-initiated), as well as class II (protonation initiated) …

New Insights into Mycofactocin Biosynthesis, Structure and Function
… is a putative ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptide (RiPP)-derived redox cofactor. Its biosynthesis is accomplished through the dedicated actions of the products of six conserved genes, <em>mftABCDEF</em>. The mycofactocin pathway is one of the most widely …

Investigation into the structure and function of Hsp47
Collagen is the most abundant protein in mammals and is the main protein of connective tissue in animals [1]. It is a fibrous structural protein that is the major component of the extracellular matrix, which provides great tensile strength to ligaments, tendons, bone and skin, for example. Hsp47 is …
