speciated samples of pm2.5 were collected at the hamshire and orange sites in golden triangle of texas by us epa (environmental protection agency) from july of 2003 to august of 2005. a total of 269 samples for the hamshire site and 293 samples for the orange site with 52 species were measured; however, 22 species were excluded because of too many below-detectionlimit data. among the 22 species...

Glucagon and the glucagon receptor are most important molecules control over blood glucose concentrations. These two molecules are very important to studies of type 2 diabetic patients. In literature, several classes of small molecule antagonists of the human glucagon receptor have been reported. Glucagon receptor antagonist could decrease hepatic glucose output and improve glucose control in d...

despite a quite short early history, computational drug design and discovery methods can now be efficient in reducing costs and speeding up drug developing procedure. melanocortin-4 receptor (mc4r) is a g protein-coupled receptor implicated in the regulation of body weight. despite its clinical reputation, there is a lack of in-depth knowledge about structure and behavior of mc4r in lipid bilay...

Background: Denileukin diftitox (trade name, Ontak) is the first recombinant immunotoxin (IM), in which the binding domain of diphtheria toxin has been replaced by the amino acid sequence of human interleukin-2 (DT389IL-2) using genetic engineering. Purity, stability, and structural property of the protein are critical factors for the scale-up production of this fusion protein. In this IM, loca...
