lysine/dental caries

We determined the free-amino acid content of stimulated parotid (ductal) saliva from two groups of adult subjects whose caries experiences were markedly different. The levels of free arginine and free lysine in the parotid saliva of caries-free adults were significantly higher than those found in

To deliver anti-cancer drugs to tumors, a hydrophobic cavity was prepared in the dendritic molecule, dendritic poly(L-lysine) of sixth generation (KG6), which was used as a drug carrier. The dendritic molecule was modified with polyethylene glycol (PEG)-linked hydrophobic penta-phenylalanine or

Pyrophosphate ion (PPi) release during transcription elongation is a signature step in each nucleotide addition cycle. The kinetics and energetics of the process as well as how it proceeds with substantial conformational changes of the polymerase complex determine the mechano-chemical coupling

Is studying and control of the clinical efficacy and safety of ketoprofen lysine salt (КLS) (the commercial name is "Oki" manufacturer by Dompe CPA, Italy) in the form of sachets and solutions for application in postoperative period after dental surgeries procedures. The comparison of the analgetic

BACKGROUND A double blind randomized comparative clinical study vs placebo clinical study has been carried out in order to assess the antiinflammatory and analgesic activity of ketoprofen lysine salt in oropharyngeal solution, in pain-inflammatory pathologies of odontostomatological

His93Gly sperm whale myoglobin (H93G Mb) has the proximal histidine ligand removed to create a cavity for exogenous ligand binding, providing a remarkably versatile template for the preparation of model heme complexes. The investigation of model heme adducts is an important way to probe the

Aging and age-related diseases are associated with the production of reactive oxygen species which modify lipids, proteins and DNA. Here we hypothesized the glyco- and lipoxidation product N(epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML) in proteins should bind divalent and redox active transition metal

Lactoferrin is one of a number of multifunctional proteins that are present in or on all mucosal surfaces throughout the body. Levels of lactoferrin are consistently elevated in inflammatory diseases such as arthritis, inflammatory bowel diseases, corneal disease, and periodontitis.

Lysine racemase, a pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent amino acid racemase that catalyzes the interconversion of lysine enantiomers, is valuable to serve as a novel non-antibiotic selectable marker in the generation of transgenic plants. Here, we have determined the first crystal structure of a
