Membrane-protein interactions hold the key to understanding amyloid formation
In this perspective we describe the critical role membranes play in modulating the structures of the Amyloid Precursor Proteins to produce the peptides involved in the Alzheimer's disease. Some of the key concepts related to protein aggregation including the potential role of the excited states of monomers in initiating protein aggregation are described.
متن کاملFormation of metallic copper nanoparticles at the soil-root interface.
Copper is an essential element in the cellular electron-transport chain, but as a free ion it can catalyze production of damaging radicals. Thus, all life forms attempt to prevent copper toxicity. Plants diminish excess copper in two structural regions: rare hyperaccumulators bind cationic copper to organic ligands in subaerial tissues, whereas widespread metal-tolerant plants segregate copper ...
متن کاملSoil Nitrogen Status Modifies Rice Root Response to Nematode-Bacteria Interactions in the Rhizosphere
It has been hypothesized that faunal activity in the rhizosphere influences root growth via an auxin-dependent pathway. In this study, two methods were used to adjust nematode and bacterial populations within experimental soils. One is "exclusion", where soil mixed with pig manure was placed in two bags with different mesh sizes (1mm and 5μm diameter), and then surrounded by an outer layer of u...
متن کامل24P. Does ICT hold the key to SME development?
As the European Union (EU) and its Member States face the pressures of recession, ongoing global competition and the challenges of implementing a new knowledge economy, improving the capabilities and participation of the huge small and medium enterprise (SME) sector is vital. This is particularly true of the microfirms (less than 10 employees) that account for 93 per cent of the EU’s 25 million...
متن کاملModeling Alien Invasions: Plasticity May Hold the Key to Prevention
The history of life is fi lled with examples of one species diverging into several, even thousands, each with unique traits geared to the demands of its ecological niche. In the textbook case of adaptive radiation, an ancestral fi nch species landed on the Galapagos Islands just a few million years ago, and evolved into 13 new species with specialized beaks adapted to exploiting the various see...
