Small Heat Shock Proteins from Bacteria and a Bacteriophage
Proteins can unfold during heat and other types of stress and tend to aggregate with subsequent loss of function. This event is prevented by small Heat Shock Proteins (sHSPs) acting as molecular chaperones. sHSPs do not ... -
Structural and Biophysical studies to evaluate the influence of oligomerization on biomolecular function
Oligomeric proteins are more common than monomers. This aspect of molecular evolution substantially contributes to functional diversity and the acquisition of features such as cooperativity and regulatory mechanisms. Not ...
