The p65, which is one of the constituent subunit of hetero- or homo-dimers of Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB), acts as a regulator of expression of multiple genes that control cell proliferation and cell survival [ 40].
TatB and TatC form a high molecular weight complex containing multiple copies of each of the constituent subunits [11].
Each one has a polarity vector, a list of its constituent subunits, internal velocity states, and a CELL volume that determines the number of subunits.
A sensible approach is to divide-and-conquer, where structural characterization of constituent subunits using standard techniques is followed by reassembly [7].
Efficient cleavage of HIV-1 Env gp160 into its constituent subunits correlates with selective binding to neutralizing antibodies and are the closest mimetic of native, functional Envs.
The characterization of constituent subunits of the mitochondrial RNA-binding complex 1 (MRB1) implies that it too is vital to the editing process.
Many studies have shown that symmetric shells appear in nature as a result of the free-energy minimization of a generic interaction between their constituent subunits.
Over the last ten years the diversity of G-proteins and importance of the individual constituent subunits have been appreciated, and recently the specific molecular mechanisms, through crystallisation advances, have been elucidated.
During seed germination, β-conglutin undergoes a major cycle of limited proteolysis in which many of its constituent subunits are processed into a 20 kDa polypeptide termed blad.
In this way, this round of intensive limited proteolysis, several tens of β-conglutin constituent subunits are converted into the homogeneous, highly basic blad (Figure 3), which may therefore be considered as a stable, intermediary product of β-conglutin catabolism.
