Abstract
Bactofilins are a widespread class of bacterial filament-forming proteins, which serve as cytoskeletal scaffolds in various cellular pathways. They are characterized by a conserved architecture, featuring a central...

Unravelling proton NMR spectra of foodstuffs with independent component analysis techniques
http://www.spectroscopynow.com/common/images/thumbnails/144c151d9a0.jpgOverlapping signals in the proton NMR spectra of complex liquids, like foodstuffs and soft drinks, can be processed using a chemometric method, independent component analysis, to extract the spectra of pure components and determine their concentrations.

[NMR paper] NMR Study on Small Proteins from Helicobacter pylori for Antibiotic Target Discovery: A Review.
NMR Study on Small Proteins from Helicobacter pylori for Antibiotic Target Discovery: A Review.
NMR Study on Small Proteins from Helicobacter pylori for Antibiotic Target Discovery: A Review.
Molecules. 2013;18(11):13410-24
Authors: Kang SJ, Kim DH, Lee BJ
Abstract
Due to the widespread and increasing appearance of antibiotic resistance, a new strategy is needed for developing novel antibiotics. Especially, there are no specific antibiotics for Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori). H. pylori are bacteria that live in the stomach and are...

Abstract
Many knotted proteins have been discovered recently, but the folding process of which remains elusive. HP0242 is a hypothetical protein from Helicobacter pylori, which is a model system for studying the folding pathway of a knotted protein. In...
