Selective incorporation of polyanionic molecules into hamster prions.
The central pathogenic event of prion disease is the conformational conversion of a host protein, PrPC, into a pathogenic isoform, PrPSc. We previously showed that the protein misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA) technique can be used to form infectious prion molecules de novo from purified native PrPC molecules in an autocatalytic process requiring accessory polyanions (Deleault, N. R., Harr...
متن کاملSelective incorporation of functional dicarboxylates into zinc metal-organic frameworks.
Zinc(II) nitrate reacts with different ratios of 1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H(2)bdc) and 2-halo-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid (H(2)bdc-X, X = Br or I) to give [Zn(4)O(bdc)(3-x)(bdc-X)(x)], in which preferential incorporation of bdc is observed. The selective incorporation is related to crystal growth rates, and the proportion of incorporated bdc-X rises with increasing reaction time.
متن کاملFluoroglycoproteins: ready chemical site-selective incorporation of fluorosugars into proteins.
A tag-and-modify strategy allows the practical synthesis of homogenous fluorinated glyco-amino acids, peptides and proteins carrying a fluorine label in the sugar and allows access to first examples of directly radiolabelled ([(18)F]-glyco)proteins.
متن کاملSelective incorporation of influenza virus RNA segments into virions.
The genome of influenza A virus is comprised of eight viral RNA (vRNA) segments. Although the products of all eight vRNA segments must be present for viral replication, little is known about the mechanism(s) responsible for incorporation of these segments into virions. Two models have been proposed for the generation of infectious virions containing eight vRNA segments. The random-incorporation...
متن کاملSelective incorporation of 5-hydroxytryptophan into proteins in mammalian cells.
An orthogonal tryptophanyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) synthetase (TrpRS)-mutant opal suppressor tRNA(Trp) (mutRNA(UCA)(Trp)) pair was generated for use in mammalian cells. The anticodon loop of the Bacillus subtilis tRNA(Trp) was mutated to UCA, three positions in the D arm were mutated to generate an internal promoter sequence, and the mutRNA(UCA)(Trp) gene was inserted between the 5' and 3' flanking...
