thioredoxins (trxs) are small ubiquitous oxidoreductase proteins with two redox-active cys residues in a conserved active site (wcg/ppc) that regulate numerous target proteins via thiol/disulfide exchanges in the cells of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. the isoforms ostrx23 with a typical active site (wcgpc) and ostrx20 with an atypical active site (wctpc) are two  trx h- type isoforms in rice that ...

A new model based on a combination of the polymeric multigrain and multilayer models has been developed to predict the polymerization rate, particle growth, morphology, effective parameters on broadening of the molecular weight distribution, number and weight average of the molecular weight, isotacticity index and bulk density of polymer. Mathematical correlations and the kinetics used in t...

Tn5 transposase (Tnp) is a 53.3-kDa protein that is encoded by and facilitates movement of transposon Tn5. Tnp monomers contain a single active site that is responsible for catalyzing a series of four DNA breaking/joining reactions at one transposon end. Based on primary sequence homology and protein structural information, we designed and constructed a series of plasmids that encode for Tnps c...

Ribonuclease A (RNase A; EC 3.1.27.5) was perhaps the most studied enzyme of the 20th century and is the best characterized ribonuclease. The “A” in its name refers not to its substrate specificity, but to the predominant form of the enzyme produced by the bovine pancreas. RNase A is unmodified, whereas RNase B, RNase C, and RNase D are mixtures of glycoforms. Because of its availability in lar...
