Further, we found that the frequencies of uncharged polar amino acids, which are thermolabile or actively interact with water molecules, were lower in thermophilic proteins. Moreover, the frequencies ...

Therefore, the rQTY variants could become partially hydrophobic proteins at specific sites. If the rQTY code can replace amino acids Q, T, Y to L, V and F, respectively, it can then increase the ...

For Polanco-Lugo et al. (2014), the high exposure of hydrophobic amino acids residues in Phaseolus lunatus protein hydrolysate may have an impact on antioxidant activity. Stanojevic et al., (2012) ...

OPINION: The first time I tasted pavlova was probably on my first visit to Aotearoa New Zealand – a whirlwind trip to see glow worms and spend the festive season with my prospective in-laws ...

Here we use cryogenic electron microscopy to determine the structure of TbAQP2 from Trypanosoma brucei, bound to either the substrate glycerol or to the sleeping sickness drugs, pentamidine or ...

The SH3 domains bind target proteins through amino-acid stretches containing prolines and hydrophobic amino acids. Arrows indicate the domains to which the interacting proteins bind.

We have developed efficient synthetic routes to two hydrophobic amino acids, suitably protected for solid-phase peptide synthesis, and have successfully synthesized peptides containing these or other ...

Proteins are biopolymers of amino acids (polypeptides), joined by peptide bonds, that are generated by ribosomes. The amino acid sequence, encoded by its gene, determines a protein’s structure ...

Our dietitians and testers rounded up the 12 best protein powders. See the products that made our list and get tips on how to use protein powder.

Collagen IV provides crucial structural support for cells and tissues, but it’s unstable at body temperature. Researchers now ...

Essentially, SPs are composed of a positively charged N-region, a hydrophobic α-helical H-region, and a more polar C-region that frequently starts with a helix-breaking residue and that comprises the ...
