An amino acid code for protein folding.

Direct structural information obtained for many proteins supports the following conclusions. The amino acid sequences of proteins can stabilize not only the final native state but also a small set of discrete partially folded native-like intermediates. Intermediates are formed in steps that use as units the cooperative secondary structural elements of the native protein. Earlier intermediates g...

Determination of Protein Concentration Using Bradford Microplate Protein Quantification Assay

Background: Bradford protein assay is popular due to its ease of performance and relative sensitivity. Many researchers and laboratories in Iran use standard assay of Bradford by cuvette. No commercial kit was available for Bradford microplate assay in Iran. Meanwhile, imported Bradford commercial kits are very expensive and have a long delivery time in Iran. Till now no study or document on Br...

Protein folding and the robustness of cells

The intricate intracellular infrastructure of all known life forms is based on proteins. The folded shape of a protein determines both the protein's function and the set of molecules it will bind to. This tight coupling between a protein's function and its interconnections in the molecular interaction network has consequences for the molecular course of evolution. It is also counter to human en...
