A paper titled "Functional implications of unusual NOS and SONOS covalent linkages found in proteins," by Matthew D. Lloyd, ...

The authors created a useful collection of Rep protein variants with changes that alter the amino acid sequence, but these did not lead to clear improvements in how the virus worked. Instead, their ...

The solution was brought to a boil while stirring magnetically (400 rpm), and then 3 mL of α-amino acid salt aqueous solution (20 mM) was added at once. The reaction was performed until the solution ...

This manuscript introduces a useful protein-stability-based fitness model for simulating protein evolution and unifying non-neutral models of molecular evolution with phylogenetic models. The model is ...

Figure 1. Catabolic pathways of branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and downstream signaling initiated by catabolites (for explanation, see BCAA Catabolism section). 4E-BP1 indicates eukaryotic ...

And that’s how the 8 sequence structure was born. Since then, it’s been one of Hollywood’s best-kept secrets. 8 sequence structure is the idea that a feature-length movie can be broken down ...

Seed plants, such as soybeans, store large amounts of protein in specialized organelles called protein storage vacuoles. These proteins not only sustain seedling growth but also serve as a major ...

In recent years, AI tools like AlphaFold have become very accurate at generating protein structure predictions based on amino acid sequences, making life a lot easier for scientists worldwide and ...
