Which structures do complex proteins adopt in solution? Biophysicists answer this question using the example of ubiquitin dimers as well as a new combination of high-resolution NMR spectroscopy and ...

Receptor oligomerization in the form of homodimers — for example, erythropoietin (EPO) receptor (EPOR), growth hormone receptor (GHR) or hetero-oligomers (for example, IL-2R) — is the key event in ...

Researchers at The Scripps Research Institute, the University of California, San Diego, and Ohio State University have used a very sensitive fluorescence technique to find that a bacterial protein ...

A D-dimer test measures how much D-dimer protein is in the blood. This protein is present when blood clots break down. A typical range is 0-0.50 milligrams per liter (mg/L) of blood. D-dimer is a ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Two Triton-insoluble fractions were isolated from Acanthamoeba castellanii. The major non-membrane proteins in both fractions were actin ...

Although D-dimer results within a typical range can rule out pulmonary embolism, high results alone can’t diagnose this condition. Doctors usually need to run extra tests to make a diagnosis. A ...

What is dimerization? It is a process where two molecules of similar chemical composition come together to form a single polymer known as a dimer. Where does dimerization occur? It happens throughout ...

The studies presented in this article compare the use of mass photometry to size exclusion chromatography (SEC) - the industry’s gold standard - for the analysis of protein abundance and antibody ...

Proteins consist of amino acids, which are linked to form long amino acid chains as specified by our genetic material. In our cells, these chains are not simply rolled up like strings of pearls, but ...
