Tuberculosis (TB) is a zoonotic infectious disease common to humans and animals which has been caused by a rod shaped, acid fast bacterium, called Mycobacterium bovis. The rapid and sensitive detection is a great challenge for TB diagnosis. The virulent strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) have 16 different regions of difference (RD) in their genome which encode some important a...

infectious bronchitis virus (ibv) is a contagious pathogen in fowl that results in economic loss in the poultry industry. in this study, the amino acids sequences of three structural proteins m, n, and s1 for five iranian ibv isolated during 1998-2011 have been analyzed. conserved and variable regions, hydrophobic characteristics and identity matrix were determined after alignment by bioedit ve...

Understanding the mechanism of folding of small proteins requires characterization of their starting unfolded states and any partially unfolded states populated during folding. Here, we review what is known from NMR about these states of Im7, a 4-helix bundle protein that folds via an on-pathway intermediate, and show that there is an alignment of non-native structure in urea-unfolded Im7 with ...
