protein aggregation and precipitation is associated with many debilitating diseases including alzheimer's, parkinson's, and light-chain amyloidosis. β-casein, a member of the casein family, has been demonstrated to exhibit chaperone-like activity to protect protein form aggregation. hofmeister salts (lyotropice series) are a class of ions which have an effect on the solubility and also the stab...

Platelet aggregation inhibitory effect and anticoagulant properties of fractions separated from the venoms of Cerastes persicus fieldi and Echis carinatus were investigated. The partial fractionation was performed on a Sephadex G-100 column. Two fractions separated from Cerastes persicus fieldi showed anti platelet aggregation activity on ADP (200 µM)-induced platelet aggregation (ca 80% inhibi...

objective: to study the mechanisms involved in amyloid formation processes, we made a mammalian cell culture model of amylin aggregation and characterized its properties. materials and methods: amyloid fibrils were extracted from cho cells and binding affinity to thioflavin t and congo red was investigated. then the apple-green birefringence of extracted fibrils was detected under polarized li...

Introduction: Profilin1 (PFN1) is a ubiquitously expressed protein known for its function as a regulator of actin polymerization and dynamics. A recent discovery linked mutant PFN1 to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), which is a fatal and progressive motor neuron disease. We have also demonstrated that Gly118Val mutation in PFN1 is a cause of ALS, and the formation of aggregates containing m...

diminishing protein aggregation by chaperone is very important factor in medicine and industry. in this paper, itis induced the chaperone ability for 0-casein upon modification of its acidic residues by woodward reagentk(wrk) and examined on lysozyme as a target protein at ph 7.2 and outlined the mechanism for chaperoneability of modified system by uv-vis and fluorescence spectroscopy and theor...
