Probing Structure–Function Relationships of Serine Hydrolases and Proteases with Carbamate and Thiocarbamate InhibitorsThe Protein Journal - Tập 25 - Trang 33-43 - 2006
G. Lin, S. -Y. Chiou, B. -C. Hwu, C. -W. Hsieh
Benzene-1,3-di-N-n-octylcarbamate (1), benzene-1-hydroxyl-3-N-n-octylcarbamate (2), benzene-1,3-di-N-n-ocztylthiocarbamate (3), and benzene-1-hydroxyl-3-N-n-octylthiocarbamate (4) are synthesized from 1,3-benzene-diol and are characterized as the pseudo-substrate inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase, butyrylcholinesterase, cholesterol esterase, lipase, trypsin, and chymotrypsin. For these six enzyme...... hiện toàn bộ
Herman Berendsen and Water: Personal MemoriesThe Protein Journal - Tập 42 - Trang 156-158 - 2023

Calcium Ions and a Secreted Peroxidase in Euphorbia characias Latex are Made for Each OtherThe Protein Journal - - 2011
Francesca Pintus, Delia Spanò, Rosaria Medda, Giovanni Floris
This minireview deals of a protein, a class III secreted peroxidase, present as unique isoform in the latex of the perennial Mediterranean shrub Euphorbia
characias. The paper reports on the molecular properties, on the structures (primary, secondary and tertiary), and on the catalytic mechanism of this enzyme. Here is also reported the extraordinary effect of calcium ions ...... hiện toàn bộ
SDS Induced Structural Changes in α-Crystallin and It’s Effect on RefoldingThe Protein Journal - Tập 23 - Trang 529-538 - 2004
Ashis Biswas, Kali P. Das
α-Crystallin, a major eye lens protein and a key member of the small heat shock protein family, acts like a chaperone by preventing aggregation of substrate proteins. One of the hallmarks of most small heat shock proteins is their existence as a large oligomer, the role of which in its function is not understood at present. We have studied the role of the oligomer in the stability of its structure...... hiện toàn bộ
Most Probable Druggable Pockets in Mutant p53-Arg175His Clusters Extracted from Gaussian Accelerated Molecular Dynamics SimulationsThe Protein Journal - Tập 41 - Trang 27-43 - 2022
Morad Mustafa, Mohammed Gharaibeh
p53, a tumor suppressor protein, is essential for preventing cancer development. Enhancing our understanding of the human p53 function and its modifications in carcinogenesis will aid in developing more highly effective strategies for cancer prevention and treatment. In this study, we have modeled five human p53 forms, namely, inactive, distal-active, proximal-active, distal-Arg175His mutant, and ...... hiện toàn bộ
