Protein crystallography as a source of data on protein quaternary structures

Protein structures by spallation neutron crystallography

The Protein Crystallography Station at Los Alamos Neutron Science Center is a high-performance beamline that forms the core of a capability for neutron macromolecular structure and function determination. This capability also includes the Macromolecular Neutron Crystallography (MNC) consortium between Los Alamos (LANL) and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratories for developing computational too...

Influence of Protein Source on the Growth of Lambs

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the influence of roasted soybean and sunflower meal on the consumption and growth performance of lambs from the Blackhead Pleven Breed. The results indicated that the addition of roasted soybean caused the lambs to grow significantly faster than those fed sunflower meal (P

The Use of Sweet Almond Meal as a Protein Source in Japanese Quails Diets

In the first experiment, the chemical composition, apparent metabolizable energy (AME), AME corrected for nitrogen (AMEn), true metabolizable energy (TME), TME corrected for nitrogen (TMEn) values of the sweet almond meal were determined in adult Leghorn cockerels. The second experiment was performed to evaluate the effects of different levels of sweet almond meal at 0, 100, 200 and 300 g/kg on...

Protein engineering as a tool for crystallography.

The generation of large quantities of protein by overexpression technology has enabled structural studies of many important molecules that are found in only minute quantities in the cell. An increasing number of structures of proteins overexpressed in non-native systems have been solved. Crystallographers now have an extremely powerful tool, namely protein engineering, for the generation of nat...
