The story of the rabbit who is in graduate school.

The chemical synthesis of peptides and small proteins is a powerful complementary strategy to recombinant protein overexpression and is widely used in structural biology, immunology, protein engineering, and biomedical research. Despite considerable impro

A very detailed review of the history of electrophoresis.

In this review we present the application of fluorescence techniques to study polymer-surfactant systems, discussing the various methods and materials in use. In the first section we consider the use of low molecular weight fluorescence probes to measure

The Bacillus subtilis pgdS gene, which is located at the immediate downstream of the pgs operon for poly-γ-glutamate (PGA) biosynthesis, encodes a PGA depolymerase. The pgdS gene product shows the structural feature of a membrane-associated protein. Th

Poly-γ-glutamic acid (PGA) with high molecular weight is a most promising biomaterial in industrial uses; however, it generally diverse in molecular structure and co-produced with polysaccharides and various other biopolymers. In this study, it was asc

Genetic engineering methodology has enabled the synthesis of protein-based polymers with precisely controlled structures. Protein-based polymers have well-defined molecular weights, monomer compositions, sequences and stereochemistries. The incorporation
