Rational protein design aims at the targeted modification of existing proteins.To reach this goal, software suites like Rosetta propose sequences to introduce the desired properties.Challenging design problems necessitate the representation of a protein by means of a structural ensemble.Thus, Rosetta multi-state design fr3345 (MSD) protocols have b
Twelve embryogenesis abundant protein (LEA) genes (named ThLEA-1 to -12) were cloned from Tamarix hispida.The expression profiles of these genes in response to NaCl, fr3345 PEG, and abscisic acid (ABA) in roots, stems, and leaves of T.hispida were assessed using real-time reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).These ThLEAs all sho
Proper names are good examples of the interaction between language and society.They are used to refer to specific and unique entities.Taking side with the thesis which states that proper names have a meaning, this article explores the evolution of the use of proper names as denominal verbs in English (boycott for instance) with a specific focus on
