Circular dichroism spectroscopy and the conformational analysis of globular proteins in the native and denatured state

Creator:: Compton, Larry A.
Abstract:: A simple matrix method for the analysis of protein circular dichroism (CD) spectra is presented and used to compute the secondary structure of globular proteins in their native and denatured states. The method uses singular value decomposition and generalized inverse algorithms, and a basis set of CD spectra for proteins...

A double-stranded secondary structure for hyaluronic acid in aqueous-organic solvent as revealed by vacuum ultraviolet circular dichroism

Creator:: Staskus, Paul
Abstract:: The association of hyaluronic acid (HA) into a double stranded structure has been investigated by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy into the vacuum ultraviolet region. The CD of HA changes dramatically, monitoring a cooperative transition as the dielectric constant of an aqueous solution is reduced by adding organic solvents. This structural...

Crystallographic studies of Pyrenophora tritici-repentis ToxA

Creator:: Sarma, Ganapathy N.
Abstract:: Tan spot of wheat is an economically significant disease caused by the fungal pathogen, Pyrenophora tritici-repentis. Certain races of the fungus secrete Ptr ToxA (ToxA), a 13.2 kDa proteinaceous host-selective toxin that is responsible and sufficient to cause disease in susceptible wheat varieties. Disease symptoms develop only when the ToxA...

Characterizing the Functional Properties of Otoferlin, Essential for Neurotransmission in Inner Hair Cells of the Cochlea

Creator:: Narayanappa, Murugesh
Abstract:: Hearing loss is one of the most common defect, affecting 360 million people worldwide due to several factors including congenital, present at or soon after birth or acquired with age. Congenital hearing loss affects 32 million children in the world. The economic impact of hearing loss is estimated to cost...

Kinetic analysis of avian sarcoma virus integrase in the presteady-state

Creator:: Bao, Kogan K.
Abstract:: Integrase catalyzes insertion of a retroviral genome into the host chromosome. Following reverse transcription, integrase binds specifically to the ends of the duplex retroviral DNA, endonucleolytically cleaves two nucleotides from each 3'-end (the processing activity), and inserts these ends into the host DNA (the joining activity) in a concerted manner....

An assay for screening cells for mismatch repair proficiency in vivo

Creator:: Wu, Shiau-Yin
Abstract:: Mismatch repair is one of the mechanisms by which cells ensure genomic stability. Deficiencies in mismatch repair (MMR) increase mutation rates and cancer risks. In the well-characterized methyl-directed Escherichia co/i system, MMR is initiated by MutS, Mut L, and MutH proteins. The single MutS protein and the single MutL protein...

Nucleoprotein structure of adenovirus

Creator:: Corden, Jeffry Lynn
Abstract:: The structure of the nucleoprotein core of adenovirus has been investigated. Using a combination of biophysical techniques and nuclease digestion I have determined that the adenovirus core, as isolated with pyridine, shares several physical properties with cellular chromatin. The most notable difference is the lack of a nucleosome repeat in...
