The Molecular Mechanism of Nitrate Chemotaxis via Direct Ligand Binding to the PilJ Domain of McpN.
David Martín-Mora,Álvaro Ortega,Miguel A. Matilla,Sergio Martínez-Rodríguez,Jose A. Gavira,Tino Krell +5 more
TL;DR: It is shown that Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 mediates nitrate chemotaxis on the basis of specific nitrate sensing by the periplasmic PilJ domain of the PA2788/McpN chemoreceptor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is Agarose an Impurity or an Impurity Filter? In Situ Observation of the Joint Gel/Impurity Effect on Protein Crystal Growth Kinetics
TL;DR: In this paper, the joint effect of agarose gel and impurities on hen egg white lysozyme crystal growth kinetics was investigated in situ by comparing the two-dimensional (2D) nucleation rate and the step velocity of crystals growing from free and gelled (agarose) solutions having two different levels of purity: highly purified (99.99% pure) and commercial grade (98.5% pure).
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of a Magnetic Field on Lysozyme Crystal Nucleation and Growth in a Diffusive Environment
TL;DR: In this article, Tetragonal hen egg white lysozyme crystals were grown in agarose gel under the influence of a 7 T homogeneous and static magnetic field, and the results showed that the effect of the magnetic field and the chemical effects due to the interaction between protein and agaroses was compromised.

Enhanced vulnerability of human proteins towards disease-associated inactivation through divergent evolution.
Encarnación Medina-Carmona,Julian E. Fuchs,Jose A. Gavira,Noel Mesa-Torres,José L. Neira,Eduardo Salido,Rogelio Palomino-Morales,Miguel Burgos,David J. Timson,Angel L. Pey +9 more
TL;DR: The results support that recent divergence of consensus amino acids may have occurred with neutral effects on many functional and regulatory traits of wild-type human proteins, however, divergence at certain sites may have increased the propensity of some human proteins towards inactivation due to disease-associated mutations and polymorphisms.
