... receptors need many copies of switch-like components called immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMS). ITAMs are components of the CD3 adaptor proteins that attach to the T cell receptor ...
... XPD came as a surprise. Of the protein's four domains (distinct substructures), two are helicase motifs, HD1 and HD2; another is the iron-sulfur domain, 4FeS, which protrudes in a way that implies an ...
... of motif.
In addition, the researchers found the presence of multiple, but distinct, repeat motifs in the two types of sexually transmitted Treponema examined, suggesting that a diverse repertoire ...
... binding strength between two proteins is determined by contacts found in the lineal motif but it is the contextual residues that hold information about the most suitable proteins, thereby preventing ...
... of 24 gold atoms bound to sulfur.
"In 2006, we predicted that gold atoms in this bonding motif were divided in two groups – those that made the metal core and those that helped to protected it," ...
... similar anisotropic magnetic, photonic, phononic and plasmonic properties.
"These functional nano-motifs could in turn benefit novel technologies that are sensitive to local environment change such ...
... that were quite distinct in terms of stylistic evolution of carved figures. Whereas the most ancient motifs, associated with the rise of the first great Andean civilizations (2500-300 BC) essentially ...
... how to block the entry mechanism."
The researchers also demonstrated that the RXLR and dEER motifs could be replaced by similar targeting sequences found in effector proteins produced by the malarial ...
... laboratory discovered that IRAK-1 prefers to phosphorylate transcription factors harboring the Serine-Proline motif including STAT-3 and NFAT. Subsequently, STAT-3 and NFAT are involved in modulating ...
... can be used to interact with PAMPs (Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns), which are motifs on the surface of microbes that can be used by the immune system to identify and then destroy them.
The ...
... shapes; in this case, based on aesthetic preference.
If this experiment can identify artistically powerful structural motifs, the next step would be to study how those motifs are represented at the ...
... MLL molecular switch in normal cells. The team members called this peptide sequence the "Win" motif. They discovered that a synthetic version of this peptide acts like a drug that breaks apart the MLL ...
... direct role of the monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) receptor called chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 2 (CCR2) in the rush of monocytes to blood vessel walls as part of atherosclerosis. CCR2 is ...
... that operates across a broad spectrum of coating chemistries," Braun said. "The microcapsule motif also provides a delivery mechanism for corrosion inhibitors, antimicrobial agents, and other ...
... all cluster in the p150glued cytoskeleton-associated protein glycine-rich domain and its 'GKNDG' binding motif," Dr. Farrer says. "This region acts like a parking brake, so Perry mutations in ...
