Purification and Characterization of an Interleukin-1β-converting Enzyme Family Protease That Activates Cysteine Protease P32 (CPP32)
CPP32, a member of the interleukin-1beta-converting enzyme (ICE) family of cysteine proteases, cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and sterol regulatory element binding proteins...
Determination of the Border between the Transmembrane and Cytoplasmic Domains of Human Integrin Subunits
In this study we have determined the position of the C-terminal end of the transmembrane domains of human integrin subunits (alpha2, alpha5, beta1, beta2) in microsomal membrane...
Incidence and characteristics of endemic Norwalk‐like virus‐associated gastroenteritis
Abstract Endemic gastroenteritis associated with the Norwalk‐like viruses (NLVs) is little understood. This study tested for NLV in gastroenteritis cases in 257 households in Me...
Characterizing and modeling the impact of wireless signal strength on smartphone battery drain
Despite the tremendous market penetration of smartphones, their utility has been and will remain severely limited by their battery life. A major source of smartphone battery dra...
β-Propeller Blades as Ancestral Peptides in Protein Evolution
Proteins of the β-propeller fold are ubiquitous in nature and widely used as structural scaffolds for ligand binding and enzymatic activity. This fold comprises between four and...
Convergence characteristics of Monte Carlo–Metropolis computer simulations on liquid water
Very long (∼5000 K) Monte Carlo computer simulations are reported for liquid water described in terms of the analytical potential functions of Matsuoka, Clementi, and Yoshimine ...
