- A single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer analysis of fluorescent DNA-protein conjugates for nanobiotechnology. The development of nanobiotechnological devices requires the ability to build various components with nanometer accuracy. DNA is a well-established nanoscale...

- A synthesis approach to understanding repeated peptides conserved in mineralization proteins. We created artificial proteins that contained repeats of a short peptide motif, Asn-Gly-Asx. In nature this motif is repeated within shell proteins as an...

- Aberrant neuronal migration in the brainstem of fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy. We examined the brainstem of 10 patients with Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD). In the midbrain we noted leptomeningeal glioneuronal...

- Absence of essential fatty acids in mammalian cell strains cultured in lipid-and protein-free chemically defined synthetic media.

- Acid-labile precursors of naphthalene produced during metabolism of naphthalene by rats and rabbits.

- Activation of caspase-3 by lysosomal cysteine proteases and its role in 2,2'-azobis-(2-amidinopropane)dihydrochloride (AAPH)-induced apoptosis in HL-60 cells. We previously reported that in addition to mitochondrial cytochrome c dependent activation, lysosomal cysteine proteases were also involved in the activation...

- Acute depletion of plasma glutamine increases leucine oxidation in prednisone-treated humans. BACKGROUND, AIMS & METHODS: To determine whether depletion in plasma glutamine worsens the catabolic response to corticosteroids, seven healthy volunteers...

- Administration of macrophage colony-stimulating factor mobilized both CD11b+CD11c+ cells and NK1.1+ cells into peripheral blood. We attempted the phenotypic characterization of peripheral blood (PB) cells after daily administration of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) in...

- Advances in osteogenin and related bone morphogenetic proteins in bone induction and repair. Bone matrix is a repository of growth and differentiation factors as demonstrated by the induction of local cartilage and bone formation in rats. The bone...

- Age changes in the localization and distribution of glycosaminoglycans in human hyaline cartilage.

- Amino acid incorporation and protein synthesis: a review.

- Amino sugar metabolism in the silkworm, Bombyx mori.

- An automated assignment-free Bayesian approach for accurately identifying proton contacts from NOESY data. The identification of proton contacts from NOE spectra remains the major bottleneck in NMR protein structure calculations. We describe an automated...

- An efficient computational method for predicting rotational diffusion tensors of globular proteins using an ellipsoid representation. We propose a new computational method for predicting rotational diffusion properties of proteins in solution. The method is based on the idea of representing...

- An experimental study of GFP-based FRET, with application to intrinsically unstructured proteins. We have experimentally studied the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between green fluorescent protein (GFP) molecules by inserting folded or...

- An update on nutrition in chronic kidney disease. The prevalence of malnutrition in the course of chronic kidney disease has not changed recently and is still between 30 and 50%. About 10% of patients on...

- Analysis of mitogen-activated protein kinase activation and interactions with regulators and substrates. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are ubiquitous signal transduction modules in eukaryotes that are of great interest and importance. Here, we...

- Anionic graft polymerization of methyl acrylate to protein functional groups.
