Abstract. The protein and glycoprotein content of four different neutral or acidic solvent extracts (0.5 M KCl, 10% EDTA, 0.1 N HCl, or 2% acetic acid) from the mineralized exoskeleton of a decapod crustacean, the Atlantic shore crab Carcinus maenas, were characterized by quantitative analysis of proteins, SDS-PAGE analysis, and probing with lectins on blots. The lectins us...

Staining Method for SDS-PAGE.
Analytic Separations News ; Researchers at South Koreas Kyung Hee University have developed a new highly sensitive fluorescence staining method for visualization of proteins in 1-D and 2-D SDS-PAGE gels based on hydrophobic fluorescein derivatives. Writing in the latest issue of Electrophoresis (Kang et al. 24:3297-3304),
Tobacco Nectarin V Is a Flavin-Containing Berberine Bridge Enzyme-Like Protein with Glucose Oxidase Activity
Plant Physiology ; Ornamental tobacco (Nicotiana langsdorffii X N. sanderae) secretes a limited array of proteins (nectarins) into its floral nectar. Careful sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis analysis of tobacco nectar revealed that a broad protein band from 61 to 65 kD actually consists of
Arabidopsis cop8 and fus4 mutations define the same gene that encodes subunit 4 of the COP9 signalosome
Plant Cell ; ... cloning of subunit 4 of the complex revealed that it is a proteasome-COP9 complex-eIF3 domain protein encoded by a gene that maps to chromosome 5, near the chromosomal location of the copS and fus4 mutations. Genetic complementation tests showed that the ...

Legume grains enhance ileal losses of specific endogenous serine-protease proteins in weaned pigs
The Journal of Nutrition ; Legume Grains Enhance Ileal Losses of Specific Endogenous Serine-Protease Proteins in Weaned Pigs1 ABSTRACT Feeding legume grains to pigs usually increases losses of endogenous proteins at the terminal ileum. However, the identity of such proteins is largely unknown. This study was undertaken to
High Hydrostatic Pressure Modification of Whey Protein Concentrate for Improved Functional Properties
Journal of Dairy Science ; ABSTRACT Whey protein concentrate (WPC) has many applications in the food industry. Previous research demonstrated that treatment of whey proteins with high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) can enhance solubility and foaming properties of whey proteins. The objective of this study was to use HHP to
