Prenylation of polyketides by aromatic prenyltransferases (aPTases) ties together two of the major groups of plant specialized chemicals, terpenoids and polyketides, providing a core modification leading to new bioactivities and downstream metabolic processing.
The selectivity of 'surface vs. core' modification imparted to Q HyperZ by the various plasma treatments was evaluated in static and dynamic binding studies employing appropriate probes, i.e. plasmid DNA, sonicated calf thymus DNA and bovine serum albumin.
Valve later created a Space Core modification for the game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (see below), and the Space Core also appeared as a laser-based engraving on a panel manufactured by NASA for the International Space Station.
The most challenging core modification of the oligopyrrole/indole macrocycles is arguably the generation of hybrid structures[ 16] that lie between the classic porphyrin and phthalocyanine parent structures.
In this paper we explore the interaction in vitro of these ArdA proteins with the core modification methyltransferase (MTase, a complex of two modification, M, subunits and one sequence specificity, S, subunit) of the EcoKI RM system [10,11,21,22] and find that they all bind approximately equally well to the MTase.
Because of a drumbeat of complaints after last year's tests, Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo and legislators included a raft of Common Core modifications as part of the state budget signed this week.
Common core modifications include heterocycles, dehydrated amino acids, methylations, acetylations, backbone crosslinks, and many others [ 1].
Synthetic peptides with core modifications approach lengths prohibitive for routine SPPS if a two-piece ligation is attempted.
Surprisingly, in the ΔXT/FT mutant, which lacks plant-specific core modifications, smaller amounts of bisecting glycoforms were synthesized as compared to wild-type plants [46].
As PhoP is involved in lipid A modifications, translational repression of PhoP by GcvB [ 68] adds additional dimension to diverse inputs in modulating lipid A and LPS core modifications that could fine tune BasS/R and PhoP/Q induction.
When produced in cells, GPI-anchored proteins exist as heterogeneous mixtures with considerable variation in their glycan core modifications and lipid moieties, a complicating feature with respect to functional analysis (1, 13, 18, 58).
