X-ray crystallographic studies of bovine serum albumin and helicobacter pylori thioredoxin-2
(2004-12-20)The initial motivation for crystallization of Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) is an interest to understand how thiomolybdates interact with BSA and suppress copper intake from the food sources of cattle. The main objective of ... -
X-ray Crystallography of Inositol Dehydrogenase Enzymes
(2015-04-30)Lactobacillus casei BL23 expresses two enzymes encoded by the genes iolG1 and iolG2. They have been putatively assigned as myo-inositol dehydrogenases by sequence comparison. The enzyme catalyzes the reversible conversion ... -
X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY OF RECOMBINANT LACTOCCOCUS LACTIS PROLIDASE
(2016-01-21)Prolidase has potential applications in cheese debittering, organophosphate detoxification and as an enzyme replacement therapy in prolidase-deficient patients. Recombinant Lactococcus lactis prolidases and their catalytic ... -
X-RAY DOSE DEPENDENCE OF DARK CURRENT IN AMORPHOUS SELENIUM-ALLOY X-RAY PHOTOCONDUCTORS
(2016-10-06)The dark current is an important characteristic of a photoconductive X-ray detector, and can impact the dynamic range of the detector and its detective quantum efficiency. It is therefore essential that the dark current ... -
X-ray Induced Changes in Electronic Properties of Stabilized Amorphous Selenium Based Photoconductors
(2016-07-07)Amorphous selenium and its alloy are important materials for flat panel digital X-ray detectors. The performance of the X-ray detector is directly related to the carrier mobility and carrier-trapping lifetime of amorphous ... -
