Autoantibodies to specific enzymes: a review.
There are two categories of autoantibodies to specific enzymes: immunoglobulin-complexed enzymes and circulating autoantibodies directed to enzymes in tissue or tissues. Immunoglobulin-complexed enzymes may result in elevated serum enzyme activity. They are found more frequently in elderly patients and have limited clinical significance. Immunoglobulin association with the enzyme must be demons...
متن کاملBiologically Relevant Multiple Sequence
BIOLOGICALLY RELEVANT MULTIPLE SEQUENCE ALIGNMENT Hyrum D. Carroll Department of Computer Science Doctor of Philosophy Researchers use multiple sequence alignment algorithms to detect conserved regions in genetic sequences and to identify drug docking sites for drug development. In this dissertation, a novel algorithm is presented for using physicochemical properties to increase the accuracy of...
متن کاملBioMe: biologically relevant metals
In this article, we introduce BioMe (biologically relevant metals), a web-based platform for calculation of various statistical properties of metal-binding sites. Users can obtain the following statistical properties: presence of selected ligands in metal coordination sphere, distribution of coordination numbers, percentage of metal ions coordinated by the combination of selected ligands, distr...
متن کاملDevelopment of a biologically relevant dermal sampler.
There are currently no appropriate methods for measuring dermal exposure to volatile agents. To address this we have produced a prototype Institute of Occupational Medicine (IOM) dermal sampler consisting of an adsorbent sandwiched between a permeable membrane and an impervious backing. The concentration of solvent on the membrane surface may be estimated from the mass collected on the adsorben...
متن کاملIdentification of biologically relevant enhancers in human erythroid cells.
Identification of cell type-specific enhancers is important for understanding the regulation of programs controlling cellular development and differentiation. Enhancers are typically marked by the co-transcriptional activator protein p300 or by groups of cell-expressed transcription factors. We hypothesized that a unique set of enhancers regulates gene expression in human erythroid cells, a hig...
