چکیده

Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) has been used to show that the average distance between proteins decreases when the protein is immobilized within polymer scaffolds, indicating that the immobilization process is inducing aggregation.

Evaluation and Characterization of Free and Immobilized Acethylcholinesterase with Fluorescent Probe, Differential Scanning Calorimetry and Docking

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) enzyme which catalyses the hydrolysis of choline esters, such as acetylcholine, is very important in nerve function. Previous structural studies showed the possible amyloid fibril formation on the AChE. Therefore it is important to understand interaction of ligands to prevent the formation of  amyloid fibrils. The purpose of the present study was to  char...

Investigation the protective ability of Pulicaria. undulata aqueous extract on aggregation of κ -casein

Protein aggregation is phenomenon wherein protein loses its native structure and aggregates due to the adaption of non-native conformation. Amyloid aggregation formed by the accumulation of various proteins causes many diseases in humans and other organisms. Antioxidants can prevent proteins aggregation. Pulicaria undulata  extract along with phenolic compounds can increase protein stability an...

Plasma-enhanced antibody immobilization for the development of a capillary-based carcinoembryonic antigen immunosensor using laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy.

In this study, antibody immobilization using a microwave-induced H2O/Ar plasma pretreatment was achieved for the first time. Plasma was used to activate the surface of a capillary-based immunosensor by increasing the density of silicon hydroxyls and dangling bonds to ensure better silanization. The capture antibodies were covalently immobilized after the silanized surface reacted with glutarald...

Production of Recombinant Proline Dehydrogenase Enzyme from Pseudomonas fluorescens pf-5 in E. coli System

Proline dehydrogenase (ProDH; 1.5.99.8) belongs to superfamily of amino acid dehydrogenase, which plays a significant role in the metabolic pathway from proline to glutamate. The goal of this research was gene cloning and characterization of ProDH enzyme from Pseudomonas fluorescens pf-5 strain. The gene encoding ProDH was isolated by means of PCR amplification and cloned in an IPTG inducible T...
