Three-dimensional structure of human renin.
A three-dimensional model of human renin has been constructed based on the assumption that the overall folding of the aspartyl proteases is very similar. As a reference, we used penicillopepsin, the structure of which has been reported at a resolution of 1.8 A, and its main chain was traced to build a model of renin. The resulting structure seems to be stable from the hydrophobic and hydrophili...
متن کاملThermoelastic Interaction in a Three-Dimensional Layered Sandwich Structure
The present article investigates the thermoelastic interaction in a three-dimensional homogeneous and isotropic sandwich structure using the dual-phase-lag (DPL) model of generalized thermoelasticity. The incorporated resulting non-dimensional coupled equations are applied to a specific problem in which a sandwich layer of unidentical homogeneous and isotropic substances is subjected to time-de...
متن کاملStructure of the Human Cytomegalovirus Protease Catalytic Domain Reveals a Novel Serine Protease Fold and Catalytic Triad
Proteolytic processing of capsid assembly protein precursors by herpesvirus proteases is essential for virion maturation. A 2.5 A crystal structure of the human cytomegalovirus protease catalytic domain has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure defines a new class of serine protease with respect to global-fold topology and has a catalytic triad consisting of Ser-132, His-63, and H...
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Structure of the Human Myeloma IgG2
Human immunoglobulin G, subclass 2 (hIgG2), plays an important role in immunity to bacterial pathogens and in numerous pathological conditions. However, there is a lack of information regarding the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the hIgG2 molecule. We used electron microscopy (EM), differential scanning microcalorimetry (DSC) and fluorescence for structural analysis of the hIgG2. DSC and f...
متن کاملThree-dimensional structure of the human vestibular nuclear complex.
We used computer techniques to reconstruct in three dimensions 12 vestibular nuclear complexes (VNC) from serially sectioned brains of 7 patients. Specimens were from 4 patients with vestibular disorders and 3 patients considered vestibular normal. Despite the variety of the patient's otologic histories all the nuclei demonstrated the same shape and structural characteristics.
