Molecular characterization and functional analysis of the Nep1-like protein-encoding gene from Phytophthora capsici.
Phytophthora capsici is an aggressive plant pathogen that affects solanaceous and cucurbitaceous hosts. Nep1-like proteins (NLPs) are a group of effectors found particularly in oomycetes and considered important virulence factors. We identified an NLP gene (phcnlp1) from the highly virulent P. capsici strain Phyc12 that had an encoded polypeptide of 476-amino acid residues and a predicted molec...
متن کاملA Study on The Effect of Temperature on Human Prion Protein Structure through Molecular Dynamic Simulation
Background & Aims: The normal form of the prion protein is called PrPC and its infectious form is called PrPSc. This protein functions like a crystallized core for the transformation of PrPc into an abnormal PrPSc. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of temperature on human prion protein structure through molecular dynamic simulation. Methods: In this research, the GROMAC...
متن کاملMolecular analyses of the Arabidopsis TUBBY-like protein gene family.
In mammals, TUBBY-like proteins play an important role in maintenance and function of neuronal cells during postdifferentiation and development. We have identified a TUBBY-like protein gene family with 11 members in Arabidopsis, named AtTLP1-11. Although seven of the AtTLP genes are located on chromosome I, no local tandem repeats or gene clusters are identified. Except for AtTLP4, reverse tran...
متن کاملA Structural and Mechanistic Study of Two Members of Cupin Family Protein
Cupin superfamily is a functionally diverse large group of proteins sharing a jelly roll β-barrel fold. An enzymatic member 3-hydroxyanthranilate-3,4-dioxygenase (HAO) and a non-enzymatic member pirin, which is a human nuclear metalloprotein of unknown function present in all human tissues, were selected for structural and functional studies in this dissertation work. HAO is an important enzyme...
متن کاملCupin-type phosphoglucose isomerases (Cupin-PGIs) constitute a novel metal-dependent PGI family representing a convergent line of PGI evolution.
Cupin-type phosphoglucose isomerases (cPGIs) were identified in some archaeal and bacterial genomes and the respective coding function of cpgi's from the euryarchaeota Archaeoglobus fulgidus and Methanosarcina mazei, as well as the bacteria Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium and Ensifer meliloti, was proven by functional overexpression. These cPGIs and the cPGIs from Pyrococcus and Thermoc...
