Introduction: Sensitive methods are necessary to identify the residual structure in an unfolded protein, which may be similar to the functionally native structure. Signal intensity in NMR experiments is useful for analyzing the line width for a dynamic structure; however, another contribution is contained.
Methods: Here, the signal-intensity difference along the sequence was used for probability to calculate the standard deviation.
Results: The relative values of the standard deviations were 0.57, 0.57, and 0.66 for alpha-synuclein wild-type, A53T, and A30P, respectively. This revealed that the flexible region was mainly in the Cterminal region of alpha-synuclein at higher temperatures as observed by the amide-proton exchange studies.
Conclusion: In particular, the flexible structure was induced by the A30P mutation.

Developing sustainable structural materials to replace traditional carbon-intensive structural materials fundamentally reshapes the concept of circular development. Herein, we propose an interface engineering strategy that utilizes water as a liquid medium to replace the residual air within natural wood. This approach minimizes the absorption of water-based softening agents by microcapillary channels of wood, enabling the controlled softening of the cell walls.

Fowl typhoid (FT) poses a significant threat to the poultry industry and can cause substantial economic losses, especially in developing regions. Caused by Salmonella Gallinarum (SG), vaccination can prevent FT. However, existing vaccines, like the SG9R strain, have limitations, including residual virulence and potential reversion of pathogenicity.

The effects of 1 % xanthan gum (XG) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) on the physicochemical and structural properties of triticale gluten (TG) during fermentation were investigated. Rheological analysis revealed that the addition of XG or HPMC decreased G' and G″ values, while increasing tanδ and recovery strain of triticale gluten during fermentation. Thermal gravimetric analysis demonstrated that triticale gluten added with XG after fermentation exhibited the highest residual mass, showing a 9.

The presence of residual antibiotics in water constitutes a potential threat to aquatic environments. Therefore, designing environmentally friendly and efficient biochar adsorbents is crucial. Aquaculture by-product moss (bryophyte) was transformed into biochar, which can eliminate antibiotics from wastewater through adsorption.
