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

Lactobacillus reuteri ZJ617 maintains intestinal integrity via regulating tight junction, autophagy and apoptosis in mice challenged with lipopolysaccharide
Yanjun Cui,Li Liu,Xiaoxiao Dou,Chong Wang,Wenming Zhang,Kan Gao,Jianxin Liu,Haifeng Wang,Haifeng Wang +8 more
TL;DR: ZJ617 could protect LPS-induced intestinal barrier dysfunction via enhancing antioxidant activities and tight junction and attenuating apoptosis and autophagy via mTOR signaling pathway, which could serve as systematic mechanisms through which probiotics promote and maintain gut homeostasis.

Sequential depletion of human serum for the search of osteoarthritis biomarkers
Carolina Fernández-Costa,Valentina Calamia,Patricia Fernández-Puente,José Luis Capelo-Martínez,José Luis Capelo-Martínez,Cristina Ruiz-Romero,Francisco J. Blanco +6 more
TL;DR: The utility of the proposed chemical sequential depletion for the analysis of sera in protein biomarker discovery approaches is demonstrated, the usefulness of quantitative 2D gel-based strategies for the characterization of disease-specific patterns of protein modifications is exhibited, and a list of OA biomarker candidates for validation is provided.

Mangiferin Improved Palmitate-Induced-Insulin Resistance by Promoting Free Fatty Acid Metabolism in HepG2 and C2C12 Cells via PPARα: Mangiferin Improved Insulin Resistance
TL;DR: It is found that mangiferin significantly increased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake, via phosphorylation of protein kinase B (P-AKT), glucose transporter 2, and glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) protein expressions, and markedly decreased glucose content in HepG2 and C2C12 cells induced by PA.

Interaction of Size-Tailored PEGylated Iron Oxide Nanoparticles with Lipid Membranes and Cells
Noga Gal,Andrea Lassenberger,Laia Herrero-Nogareda,Andrea Scheberl,Verena Charwat,Cornelia Kasper,Erik Reimhult +6 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a dense homogeneous PEG shell suppresses membrane interactions and cell uptake but that nanoparticle curvature can influence membrane interactions for similarly grafted nanoparticles.

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.

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.
