Biophysical characterization of ligand binding and release of Anthereae polyphemus Pheromone Binding Protein 1 (ApolPBP1) and Exploring the nickel proteome 

Mazumder, Suman (2013-08-07)
In moths, pheromone binding proteins (PBPs) transport the hydrophobic pheromone molecules to the membrane-bound receptors across the aqueous sensillar lymph to trigger the neuronal response. We showed here that, recombinant ...

KATG as a Defense Against Hydrogen Peroxide Toxicity: From a Redundant C-Terminal Domain to the Paradoxical Synergy of Two Mutually Antagonistic Activities 

Duan, Haijun (2014-12-09)
Catalase-peroxidases (KatGs), first discovered in 1979, are heme-dependent enzymes mainly found in bacteria, archaea and fungi. They are capable of decomposing H2O2 by catalatic and peroxidatic pathways. KatG has garnered ...

Methyl-coenzyme M reductase: Expressing active recombinant enzyme in M. maripaludis, and investigating the activation process, and the mechanism of inhibition of 3-nitrooxypropanol and Studying the effect of Ionic liquids on the mononuclear rearrangement of heterocycles using QM/MM method 

Ghebreab, Robel (2019-07-25)
The study of the biosynthesis of methane is appealing from both its potential role in biofuel production and environmental perspectives. Methane is the main component of natural gas, and it is also a potent greenhouse gas ...
