The prediction of the location of disulfide bridges helps solving the protein folding problem. Most of previous works on disulfide connectivity pattern prediction use the prior knowledge of the bonding state of cysteines. In this study an effective method is proposed to predict disulfide connectivity pattern without the prior knowledge of cysteins’bonding state. To the best of our knowledge, wi...

Defensin is a gene family with antimicrobial peptides and thought to be effector molecules in innate immunity. Defensins are cationic, cystein-rich antimicrobial peptide components of the mammalian innate system1. They are members of a supergene family consisting of αand β‚ subtypes, located in a cluster at chromosome 82. These two Regulation of Human Beta-Defensin 3(hBD-3) in Human Keratinocyt...

Sistein canlı organizmada önemli rolleri olan tiyol grubu içeren bir amino asittir. Dolayısıyla sistein varlığının ve miktarının tespit edilmesi araştırmacıların ilgilendiği konuların başında gelmektedir. Bu çalışmada, sisteini ESIPT mekanizmasına dayalı fluoresans metodu ile tayin etmek amacı benzotiyazol temelli yeni algılayıcı molekül tasarlanmıştır. Hedef algılayıcının yapısı FT-IR, NMR MAL...

The structurally unique glucosinolate (GSL), 4-(cystein-S-yl)butyl GSL, was identified in the leaves of hydroponically-grown rocket salad (Eruca sativa Mill.). Its electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS)/MS spectrum indicated that this unusual GSL had a molecular weight of 414 as a desulfo (DS)-GSL, and a molecular formula of C(14)H(25)N(2)O(8)S(2) based on its negative ion matrix-as...
