Aequorin Mutants with Site-Specifically Incorporated Non-Natural Amino Acids for Biomedical Applications
of a dissertation at the University of Miami. Light emitting molecules are an indispensable part of detection and reporting in many fields and are employed in a variety of biomedical applications. Bioluminescent light, or living light, from bioluminescent proteins in particular has many beneficial characteristics, including their lack of a need for an outside excitation source and detection at ...
متن کاملArabidopsis mutants with increased sensitivity to aluminum.
Al-sensitive (als) mutants of Arabidopsis were isolated and characterized with the aim of defining mechanisms of Al toxicity and resistance. Most als mutants selected on the basis of root growth sensitivity to Al were recessive, and together the mutants constituted eight complementation groups. Also, in most als mutants, Al sensitivity appeared to be specific for Al relative to La (another triv...
متن کاملStudy of Organic Solvent Tolerance and Increased Antibiotic Resistance Properties in E. coli gyrA Mutants
Ciprofloxacin is one of the most widely used antibiotics for the treatment of several infections caused by Gram-negative bacteria, like E. coli. Changes in gyrA, encoding GyrA subunit of DNA gyrase, cause the resistance to ciprofloxacin. Some ciprofloxacin resistant gyrA mutants acquired constitutive expression of marRAB operon due to the gaining mutations in marR, a repressor of this operon...
متن کاملOptimized electrostatic surfaces parallel increased thermostability: a structural bioinformatic analysis.
It has been known for some time that thermophilic proteins generally have increased numbers of non-covalent interactions (salt bridges, hydrogen bonds, etc.) compared with their mesophilic orthologs. Recently, anecdotal structural comparisons suggest that non-specific acid-base ion pairs on the protein surface can be an evolutionary efficient mechanism to increase thermostability. In this compr...
متن کاملStructure and increased thermostability of Rhodococcus sp. naphthalene 1,2-dioxygenase.
Rieske nonheme iron oxygenases form a large class of aromatic ring-hydroxylating dioxygenases found in microorganisms. These enzymes enable microorganisms to tolerate and even exclusively utilize aromatic compounds for growth, making them good candidates for use in synthesis of chiral intermediates and bioremediation. Studies of the chemical stability and thermostability of these enzymes thus b...
