Abstract
A rapid and accurate method for the estimation of protein concentration is essential in many fields of protein study. The Lowry method ( Chapter 1 in vol. 1 of this series) has been widely used, but is susceptible to interference from a wide range of compounds commonly present in biological extracts. Although interference can be avoided by trichloracetic acid precipitation of the protein prior to assay, this lengthens the procedure.

PTH(7-84) inhibits PTH(1-34)-induced 1,25-(OH)2D3 production in murine renal tubules.

TL;DR: In vitro data suggest that PTH(7-84) elicits an antagonistic effect in renal tubules through receptors different from the type I PTH/PTHrP receptor, which may at least partly account for the decreased serum level of 1,25-(OH)2D in patients with severe primary hyperparathyroidism with renal failure.

Transcription factor Hap5 induces gsh2 expression to enhance 2-phenylethanol tolerance and production in an industrial yeast Candida glycerinogenes.

TL;DR: It is discovered that Hap5 is an essential regulator to 2- PE resistance, and its induction by 2-PE stress occurs at the post-transcriptional level, rather than at the transcriptional level.

Exposure to microplastics leads to a defective ovarian function and change in cytoskeleton protein expression in rat

TL;DR: The results uncovered, for the first time, the distribution and accumulation of PS-MPs across rat ovary, revealed a significant alteration in some biomarkers of the ovarian function, and highlighted the possible involvement of MP-induced disturbance of cytoskeleton in these adverse effects.

Investigation of cellular effects of thymoquinone on glioma cell.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of TQ on C6 rat glioma cells was investigated and the results suggest that TQ would be an effective treatment for glioblastoma.

Enzyme immobilisation on wood-derived cellulose scaffolds via carbohydrate-binding module fusion constructs

TL;DR: A relatively mild sulfite pulping process was employed to remove lignin and hemicellulose from wood with minimal disruption of its native porous structure, resulting in aligned macroporous cellulosic monoliths termed cellulose scaffolds (CSs).

A rapid and sensitive method for the quantitation of microgram quantities of protein utilizing the principle of protein-dye binding

TL;DR: This assay is very reproducible and rapid with the dye binding process virtually complete in approximately 2 min with good color stability for 1 hr with little or no interference from cations such as sodium or potassium nor from carbohydrates such as sucrose.

Measurement of protein using bicinchoninic acid

TL;DR: This new method maintains the high sensitivity and low protein-to-protein variation associated with the Lowry technique and demonstrates a greater tolerance of the bicinchoninate reagent toward such commonly encountered interferences as nonionic detergents and simple buffer salts.
Journal ArticleDOI

A rapid, sensitive, and versatile assay for protein using Coomassie brilliant blue G250

TL;DR: An assay for proteins in solution that depends on the conversion of Coomassie brilliant blue G250 in dilute acid from a brownish-orange to an intense blue color has high reproducibility and can detect less than 1.0 μg of albumin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Refinement of the coomassie blue method of protein quantitation. A simple and linear spectrophotometric assay for less than or equal to 0.5 to 50 microgram of protein.

TL;DR: The Coomassie brilliant blue G assay for proteins described by Bradford (1976) (Anal Biochem72, 248) was reexamined and it was found that the extinction coefficient of the dye-protein complex solution remained constant over the protein concentration range of 08 to 10 μg/ml of solution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Minimization of variation in the response to different proteins of the Coomassie blue G dye-binding assay for protein.

TL;DR: Modifications to the Coomassie blue G dye-binding assay for protein are described which remove much of the variation previously observed in the response of this assay to different proteins.
