TLDR
A rapid and accurate method for the estimation of protein concentration is essential in many fields of protein study, but is susceptible to interference from a wide range of compounds commonly present in biological extracts.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.read more

Bio-catalytic desulfurization of fossil fuels: a mini review
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of genetic engineering techniques and various factors on the activities of these biocatalysts is discussed, and an enhancement in this approach is expected to bring an increase in its acceptability and improve the prospects of its full commercialization as viable alternative to the conventional hydrodesulfurization of fossil fuels.

Taxifolin, a natural flavonoid interacts with cell cycle regulators causes cell cycle arrest and causes tumor regression by activating Wnt/ β -catenin signaling pathway
Suhail Razak,Tayyaba Afsar,Asad Ullah,Ali Almajwal,Musaed Alkholief,Aws Alshamsan,Sarwat Jahan +6 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that targeting β-catenin gene may encourage the alterations of cell cycle and cell cycle regulators and take part in the genesis and progression of colorectal cancer cells through regulatingcell cycle and the expression ofcell cycle regulators.

TL;DR: Testing in isolated rat liver mitochondria provides novel mechanistic insights into KI hepatotoxicity and indicates that mitochondrial toxicity at therapeutic levels can help identify hepatotoxic KIs.

Trichothecene mycotoxins inhibit mitochondrial translation--implication for the mechanism of toxicity.
TL;DR: Investigation of the direct effects of type A and type B trichothecenes on mitochondrial translation and membrane integrity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae demonstrates that inhibition of mitochondrial translation is a primary target of trichothcenes and is not secondary to the disruption of mitochondrial membranes.

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.

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.
