Their report, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, offers an unprecedented view of the sequence of hydrogen-bonding events that occur when a protein morphs from an ...

For their analysis, the team focused on hydrogen bonds, which are weak bonds that the protein forms internally between the atoms in its amino acids and with the water surrounding it. These bonds are ...

Nature ion channels play significant role in the living organisms, which can translocate physiological relevant ions across the cell membranes as demand. To simulate and replace the function of nature ...

A new study has unveiled the potential of hydrogen-bonding crosslinked supramolecular polymer materials derived from N-acryloyl glycinamide (NAGA).

Then, a protein known as helicase attaches to and breaks apart the hydrogen bonds between the bases on the DNA strands, thereby pulling apart the two strands. As the helicase moves along the DNA ...

These include wobble base pairs, such as G-U and I-A (inosine-adenine), which have a slightly different geometry and hydrogen bonding pattern. Non-Watson-Crick base pairs can play important roles in ...

This process of protein synthesis occurs in two stages ... The two strands of the DNA helix are unzipped by breaking of the weak Hydrogen bonds between base pairs. This unwinding of the helix ...

Protein folding is the process by which proteins ... that fold rapidly, stabilized by hydrogen bonding and disulphide bridges, and then tertiary structure. Nwd1 −/− livers exhibited reduced ...
