AFFINITY PURIFICATION OF HUMAN FACTOR H ON POLYPEPTIDES DERIVED FROM STREPTOCOCCAL M PROTEIN: ENRICHMENT OF THE Y402 VARIANT.

Affinity purification of human factor H on polypeptides derived from streptococcal m protein: enrichment of the Y402 variant.

Recent studies indicate that defective activity of complement factor H (FH) is associated Undercounter Dishwashers with several human diseases, suggesting that pure FH may be used for therapy.Here, we describe a simple method to isolate human FH, based on the specific interaction between FH and the hypervariable region (HVR) of certain Streptococcu

Genome-centric resolution of novel microbial lineages in an excavated Centrosaurus dinosaur fossil bone from the Late Cretaceous of North America

Abstract Background Exceptional preservation of endogenous organics such as collagens and blood vessels has been frequently reported in Mesozoic dinosaur fossils.The persistence of these soft tissues in Mesozoic fossil bones has been challenged because of the susceptibility of proteins to degradation and because bone porosity allows microorganisms
