NMR Hits the Big Time

چکیده

When it comes to structural biology, bigger really is better. Most biological processes are performed by enormous multicomponent complexes, such as the ribosome. To solve the structures of these monsters, biologists traditionally have used two different but complementary techniques, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and X-ray crystallography. They have had considerable success using the latter technique for protein structure determination, but the former technique has lagged behind, in part because it has not been possible to apply NMR to proteins larger than about 30,000 daltons (Da).

Parallel HITS Algorithm Implemented Using HADOOP GIRAPH Framework to resolve Big Data Problem

The Hypertext Induced Topic Search (HITS) algorithm developed by Kleinberg is a ranking technique to evaluate correlative authority and hub scores of web pages by exploring the hyperlink structure of the web. Today, the web graph has enormous size, and computing Authorities and Hub values effectively and rapidly for such massive data is truly a difficult task. In this paper, we present a parall...

ارزش تشخیصی ابزار HITS در مقایسه با ابزار CTS2 در غربالگری خشونت خانگی

Background & Aim: Violence against women is a serious social problem affecting public health. Given the relatively high prevalence of domestic violence and the need for screening, a simple tool for its correct diagnosis in a short time seems to be necessary. This study aimed to compare the diagnostic values of the HITS (Hurts, Insults, Threaten, and Screams) tool and CTS2 (Revised Conflict Tact...

Exploring the active site of human factor Xa protein by NMR screening of small molecule probes.

A collection of small molecules (MW < 350 Da) was screened for binding to human factor Xa using saturation transfer difference NMR spectroscopy to detect binding. The NMR screening experiments identified four hits. Binding isotherms constructed from NMR linewidth data showed that the binding affinities of the hits were all in the 30-210 microM range. Competition binding experiments showed that ...

Glycomics Hits the Big Time

Cells run on carbohydrates. Glycans, sequences of carbohydrates conjugated to proteins and lipids, are arguably the most abundant and structurally diverse class of molecules in nature. Recent advances in glycomics reveal the scope and scale of their functional roles and their impact on human disease.

Design and Synthesis of Some Novel Fluorobenzimidazoles Substituted with Structural Motifs Present in Physiologically Active Natural Products for Antitubercular Activity

Keeping in view the drawbacks associated with research on anti-TB drugs based on plant extracts and the non-availability of fluorinated natural products with antitubercular activity has prompted us to make an effort towards the synthesis and characterization of a novel series of fifteen substituted fluorobenzimidazoles. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by I.R, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR,...
