Carbohydrate – Protein aromatic ring interactions beyond CH/π interactions: A Protein Data Bank survey and quantum chemical calculations
(Elsevier, 2020)
The geometries of the contacts between monosaccharides and aromatic rings of amino acids found in X-ray crystallography structures, in the Protein Data Bank (PDB), were analyzed, while the energies of the interactions were ...
Characterisation of the binding of dihydro-alpha-lipoic acid to fibrinogen and the effects on fibrinogen oxidation and fibrin formation
(Elsevier, 2020)
A reduced form of the alpha-lipoic acid, dihydro-alpha-lipoic acid (DHLA) is a potent, naturally occurring antioxidant which can be consumed as food constituent or as supplement at doses up to 600 mg/day. DHLA has inhibitory ...
Role of aromatic amino acids in amyloid self-assembly
(Elsevier, 2020)
Amyloids are proteins of a cross-β structure found as deposits in several diseases and also in normal tissues (nails, spider net, silk). Aromatic amino acids are frequently found in amyloid deposits. Although they are not ...
SR-FTIR spectro-microscopic interaction study of biochemical changes in HeLa cells induced by Levan-C60, Pullulan-C60, and their cholesterol-derivatives
(Elsevier, 2020)
Abstract
Objects of the present study are improved fullerene C60 drug carrier properties trough encapsulation by microbial polysaccharides, levan (LEV), pullulan (PUL), and their hydrophobized cholesterol-derivatives (CHL ...
Bacterial nanocellulose as green support of platinum nanoparticles for effective methanol oxidation
(Elsevier BV, 2022)
Bacterial nanocellulose, BNC, has emerged as a new class of nanomaterials recognized as renewable, biodegradable, biocompatible and material for versatile applications. BNC also proved as a perfect support matrix for ...
Synthesis of octenyl succinic anhydride-modified levan and investigation of its microstructural, physicochemical, and emulsifying properties
(Elsevier, 2023)
In this study, levan from Bacillus licheniformis NS032 was modified in an aqueous medium by octenyl succinic
anhydride (OSA), and the properties of the obtained derivatives were studied. The maximum efficiency in ...
Characterization of the starch surface binding site on Bacillus paralicheniformis α-amylase
(Elsevier, 2020)
α-Amylase from Bacillus paralicheniformis (BliAmy), belonging to GH13_5 subfamily of glycoside hydrolases, was proven to be a highly efficient raw starch digesting enzyme. The ability of some α-amylases to hydrolyze raw ...
Highly stable and versatile α-amylase from Anoxybacillus vranjensis ST4 suitable for various applications
(Elsevier, 2023)
α-Amylase from the thermophilic bacterial strain Anoxybacillus vranjensis ST4 (AVA) was cloned into the pMALc5HisEk expression vector and successfully expressed and purified from the Escherichia coli ER2523 host strain. ...
