Bilirubin Interactions with Different Proteins and Implications of These Interactions
(New York: Nova Science Publishers, Inc., 2022)
Bilirubin is a tetrapyrrole, yellow pigment, and it is a degradation product
created in heme metabolism. This molecule is predominantly present in
its unconjugated form in circulation, and it is mainly bound to human
serum ...
Strain Wars: Competitive interactions between SARS-CoV-2 strains are explained by Gibbs energy of antigen-receptor binding
(Elsevier, 2022)
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 has mutated several times into new strains, with an increased infectivity. Infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 strains depends on binding affinity of the virus to its host ...
Atom counting method for determining elemental composition of viruses and its applications in biothermodynamics and environmental science
(Elsevier, 2022)
Quantitative physicochemical perspective on life processes has been a great asset, in bioengineering and biotechnology. The quantitative physicochemical approach can be applied to practically all organisms, including ...
Interaction between alpha-2-macroglobulin and phycocyanobilin – structural and physiological implications
(Wiley, 2022)
The interaction between phycocyanobilin (PCB), a bioactive
chromophore of blue-green cyanobacteria Spirulina’s phycobiliproteins,
and human alpha-2-macroglobulin (a2M), a universal
anti-proteinase, was investigated in ...
Antipsychotic clozapine binds catalase and preserves its activity in oxidative environment
(Wiley, 2022)
Oxidative stress undoubtedly accompanies mental disorders, and
the pleiotropic effects of atypical antipsychotics, recommended
drugs in the treatment of psychosis, are not clarified at the
molecular level. Catalase is ...
Food antioxidants and their interaction with human proteins
(Belgrade : University of Belgrade - Faculty of Agriculture, 2022)
Our research work was focused on interactions between resveratrol (R) and tibnnogen (I), (dihydro)alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) and fibrinogen or albumin, and phycocyanobilin (PCB) and catalase. Resveratrol is found in grapes ...
Optimization of extraction conditions of tropomyosin from razor mud shrimp and its quantification by developed ELISA
(Belgrade : Serbian Chemical Society, 2022)
Tropomyosin (TPM) is considered as a major allergen among different shellfish species.
Therefore, the development of methods for quantifying TPM in food products iscrucial for
allergic persons. Several extraction buffers ...
Formulas for death and life: Chemical composition and biothermodynamic properties of Monkeypox (MPV, MPXV, HMPXV) and Vaccinia (VACV) viruses
(Society of Thermal Engineers of Serbia, 2022)
Today, the World Health Organization has declared a global health emergency, caused by the Monkeypox outbreak. In the monthly analysis for June, 3500 cases have been reported in 50 countries around the world. In the analysis ...
Omicron BA.2.75 subvariant of SARS-CoV-2 is expected to have the greatest infectivity compared with the competing BA.2 and BA.5, due to most negative Gibbs energy of binding.
(MDPI, 2022)
Omicron BA.2.75 may become the next globally dominant strain of COVID-19 in 2022. The BA.2.75 sub-variant has acquired more mutations (9) in spike protein and other genes of SARS-CoV-2 than any other variant. Thus, its ...
Thermodynamics of bacteria-phage interactions T4 and Lambda bacteriophages, and E. coli can coexist in natural ecosystems due to the ratio of their Gibbs energies of biosynthesis
(Society of Thermal Engineers of Serbia, 2022)
The model of T4 phage, Lambda phage, and E. coli is often used in research on virus-host interactions. This paper reports for the first time the thermodynamic driving force of biosynthesis, catabolism and metabolism for ...
