Age estimation based on aspartic acid racemization (AAR) in dentine is one of the most precise methods in adult age. Caries induces protein degradation and may have an impact on the kinetics of AAR in dentine. We systematically examined standardized prepared dentine samples from caries-affected
Structural analysis of toluene-o-xylene monooxygenase (ToMO) hydroxylase revealed the presence of three hydrophobic cavities, a channel, and a pore leading from the protein surface to the active site. Here, saturation mutagenesis was used to investigate the catalytic roles of alpha-subunit (TouA)
During the course of a survey, a new hemoglobin, designated hemoglobin Yoshizuka, has been encountered in a Japanese family. Clinically, mild anemia was noted in five of six heterozygous individuals but no other significant abnormalities were found. Hemoglobin Yoshizuka is characterized by the
Isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) is a universal building block for the ubiquitous isoprenoids that are essential to all organisms. The enzymes of the non-mevalonate pathway for IPP synthesis, which is unique to many pathogenic bacteria, have recently been explored as targets for antibiotic
In this work, we reported a novel electrochemical sensor for enantiorecognition of electrochemically inactive aspartic acid (Asp) enantiomers. By combining sol-gel processing with molecular imprinting technology, an enantioselective interface of molecularly imprinted sol-gel (MIS) films with

Age estimation in living individuals is imperative to amicably settle civil and criminal disputes. A biochemical method based on amino acid racemization was evaluated for age estimation of living Indian individuals.

Caries-free maxillary/mandibular premolar teeth (n = 90) were
We have studied the correlation between the level of D-aspartic acid in dentin and the period of dentin formation in different types of teeth from the same individual. Except for the third molar, it is generally agreed that the formation of permanent dentin follows the pattern of growth, occurring
OBJECTIVE
We investigated how the N-methyl-DL-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor contributes to generating oscillatory potentials (OPs) of the electroretinogram (ERG) in the Royal College of Surgeons (RCS) rat.
METHODS
Scotopic ERGs were recorded from dystrophic and wild-type congenic (WT) RCS rats (n =
A new molecularly imprinted polymer-matrix (titanium dioxide nanoparticle/multiwalled carbon nanotubes) nanocomposite was developed for the modification of pencil graphite electrode as an enantioselective sensing probe for aspartic acid isomers, prevalent at ultra trace level in aqueous and real
Lysyl oxidase (LOX) is a copper dependent amine oxidase which catalyses the cross linking of collagen and elastin towards the maturation of extracellular matrix. The expression and activity of LOX is known to vary under pathological conditions such as tumorigenesis, hyperhomocysteinemia, copper
The present work is related to combination of molecularly imprinted solid-phase microextraction and complementary molecularly imprinted polymer-sensor. The molecularly imprinted polymer grafted on titanium dioxide modified silica fiber was used for microextraction, while the same polymer immobilized
UV-visible absorption and magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) data are reported for the cavity mutants of sperm whale H93G myoglobin and human H25A heme oxygenase in their ferric states at 4 degreesC. Detailed spectral analyses of H93G myoglobin reveal that its heme coordination structure has a single
Aspartic acid 26 in Escherichia coli thioredoxin is located at the bottom of a hydrophobic cavity, near the redox-active disulfide of the active site. Asp 26 is embedded in the protein except for part of the surface of one carboxyl oxygen. The high degree of evolutionary conversion of Asp 26
We report the construction and characterization of 99mTc-labeled arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD)-polyethylenimine (PEI) conjugates with entrapped gold nanoparticles in the cavities (RGD-99mTc-Au PENPs) for dual-mode single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT)
