Chromatofocusing is a protein separation technique that uses ion exchange resins and buffers with changing pH to separate proteins based on their isoelectric point. As the buffer pH passes through a protein's pI, the protein loses its charge and elutes from the resin. Chromatofocusing provides high resolution separation of proteins that have similar pI values. However, some proteins may aggregate at high concentrations and clog the resin. Isoelectric focusing uses immobilized pH gradients in gels to separate proteins based on their pI through electrophoresis. Two-dimensional electrophoresis separates proteins first by pI using isoelectric focusing, then by molecular weight using SDS-PAGE to provide high resolution separation and identification of

Affinity chromatography is a technique that uses the specific binding properties of a molecule to purify it from a mixed sample. The process involves passing a sample over a column containing beads with affinity ligands attached. Proteins in the sample either bind tightly, bind loosely, or do not bind to the ligands on the beads. Multiple wash steps are used to remove non-binding and loosely binding proteins, leaving only the tightly bound protein of interest, which can then be eluted and collected in a purified form.

This document discusses protein sequencing techniques. There are three main methods for determining a protein's amino acid sequence: N-terminal sequencing, C-terminal sequencing, and predicting the sequence from DNA sequencing. N-terminal sequencing involves using methods like Edman degradation to sequentially remove amino acids from the N-terminus and identify them. C-terminal sequencing uses carboxypeptidases to sequentially remove amino acids from the C-terminus over time. DNA sequencing allows predicting the protein sequence by first sequencing the gene that encodes the protein. Protein sequencing is important for understanding cellular processes and developing targeted drugs.
This document discusses methods for expressing and purifying recombinant proteins. It describes commonly used vectors for inserting genes of interest, such as plasmids and artificial chromosomes.

Erythrocytes have a lifespan of 120 days before being removed from circulation and degraded by macrophages in the spleen and liver. Approximately 6 grams of hemoglobin is broken down per day in an adult human. Heme is broken down by the enzyme heme oxygenase into biliverdin, iron, and carbon monoxide. Biliverdin is further degraded by biliverdin reductase into bilirubin, which is transported bound to albumin in plasma and taken up by hepatocytes in the liver. In the liver, bilirubin is conjugated and excreted into bile as bilirubin diglucuronide.
The determination of amino acid sequences presentation autumne 2015Richard Trinh
1. The document outlines common strategies used for protein sequencing, including Edman degradation. Edman degradation involves breaking the peptide bonds of a protein one by one to determine the amino acid sequence.
2. Other strategies discussed include peptide mass fingerprinting, tandem mass spectrometry, and de novo sequencing methods. Peptide mass fingerprinting involves breaking a protein into peptides and using mass spectrometry to determine the peptide masses and compare them to databases. Tandem mass spectrometry further breaks peptides into fragment ions for sequencing.
3. The strategies each have advantages and limitations. While Edman degradation was previously standard, mass spectrometry techniques are increasingly used due to their high-throughput capabilities and ability to sequence smaller protein amounts. The
The document summarizes the catabolism of heme. Heme is degraded in reticuloendothelial cells of the liver, spleen, and bone marrow. It is broken down into biliverdin by heme oxygenase and then into bilirubin by biliverdin reductase. Bilirubin binds to albumin and is taken up by hepatocytes in the liver. In the liver, bilirubin is conjugated with glucuronic acid and excreted into bile. It is further broken down in the intestines into urobilinogen and stercobilinogen and excreted in urine and feces. Normal plasma bilirubin is 0.2-0.8
Amino acid sequencing determines the order of amino acids in a protein. Frederick Sanger determined the first protein sequence in 1953 using N-terminal analysis methods like Edman degradation. Large proteins are sequenced by first breaking them into smaller fragments using enzymes or chemicals, then determining the sequence of individual fragments and combining sequences to deduce the full protein sequence. Modern techniques like mass spectrometry have made sequencing faster and applicable to modified proteins.
ISO/IEC 17025 outlines the requirements for laboratories to demonstrate competence and generate reliable test and calibration results. It covers management requirements like documentation, audits, and reviews as well as technical requirements for personnel, methods, equipment, measurement traceability and reporting. The standard requires laboratories to have a quality management system in place to ensure consistent, valid results and provide traceable measurements that can be compared internationally through an unbroken chain of calibrations.
Oxygen Binding by Myoglobin and HemoglobinAlecks Madrona
Oxygen binding proteins myoglobin and hemoglobin transport and store oxygen in the body. Myoglobin is a monomer that binds one oxygen molecule to carry oxygen to mitochondria in cells. Hemoglobin is a tetramer made of two alpha and two beta chains that binds four oxygen molecules cooperatively to carry oxygen from lungs to tissues. The heme group contains iron that binds oxygen. Hemoglobin exhibits positive cooperativity where binding of oxygen to one subunit increases the affinity of the other subunits. The Monod-Wyman-Changeux and Koshland models describe the transition between tense and relaxed hemoglobin states during cooperativity. 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate binds preferentially to deoxygenated hemoglobin and shifts

There are two types of chaperone proteins that help other proteins fold: those that assist during folding and those that assist after folding. Heat shock proteins are an important type of chaperone that assists protein folding. Chaperone proteins help ensure proteins fold into their proper 3D shapes.
This document discusses protein folding and aggregation. It describes the primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structures of proteins. Protein folding is guided by amino acid sequence and cellular environment. Misfolding can occur and result in non-native protein conformations. This leads to protein aggregation and the formation of amyloid fibrils or inclusion bodies. Protein aggregation is associated with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Factors like sequence, environment, concentration, pH, and temperature can affect protein aggregation. Understanding protein aggregation may help develop therapies for related diseases.

System response of metabolic networks in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii during Nit...Nishikant Wase
Nitrogen starvation induces a global stress response in microalga that results in the accumulation of triglycerides in lipid bodies. To identify components and mechanisms leading to lipid accumulation during nitrogen stress, we used GC-MS based metabolite profiling and iTRAQ based quantitative proteomics to examine Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cultured up to 144 hours without nitrogen. When nitrogen is limiting, starch and lipid accumulated rapidly, with lipid becoming the major storage compound by 144 hours. Our FAMEs data showed that the percentage of highly unsaturated fatty acids was reduced and the percentage of saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids were increased. Using information from the GC-MS based metabolite profiling; a Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis model was created to evaluate the role of different intracellular metabolites during lipid accumulation. We observed decreased abundance of key amino acids whereas some important metabolites including citric acid, trehalose, triethanolamine, nicotinamine, methnionine, citramalic acid and sorbitol were increased in abundance. Addition of citric acid (from 4 mM to 6 mM) to the growth media significantly improves the lipid yield in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii while growing in TAP media containing nitrogen. Examination of differentially expressed proteins revealed that 100 of 793 identified proteins were induced after 144 hours, while 77 proteins were reduced in abundance. Proteins involved in nitrogen assimilation, oxidative phosphorylation, the glycolytic pathway, TCA cycle, starch, and lipid metabolism were found to be higher in abundance than in non-stressed cultures. Another effect of nitrogen starvation was reduction of proteins of the photosynthetic apparatus (including PS-I and PS-II) and light harvesting complex proteins. We conclude that during nitrogen starvation, carbon availability is the most important factor controlling oil biosynthesis and that there is carbon partitioning between starch and oil synthesis.
Recombinant proteins are manipulated forms of proteins produced in large quantities through genetic engineering techniques. The document discusses how recombinant DNA technology is used to modify gene sequences and produce proteins in specialized vectors. It provides several examples of recombinant human proteins that have replaced animal-derived versions in medicine, such as recombinant human insulin and growth hormone. The production of recombinant Bowman-Birk inhibitor in E. coli is described as a case study, outlining the cloning of the gene and expression of the recombinant protein. Common protein purification methods are also summarized, such as affinity chromatography, ion exchange chromatography, gel filtration, and centrifugation.

Amino acids can be obtained through dietary proteins or synthesized within the body. They are broken down to provide carbon skeletons for energy production or nitrogen for incorporation into other compounds. Amino acids are classified as essential or non-essential based on the body's ability to synthesize them, and as glucogenic or ketogenic based on their fate during degradation. The urea cycle converts excess nitrogen into urea for excretion, and involves several enzymatic steps occurring in both the mitochondria and cytosol of liver cells. Deficiencies in urea cycle enzymes can cause toxic hyperammonemia due to impaired nitrogen removal.
This study examined how calsequestrin (Casq2) regulates the activity of RyR2 calcium release channels in dog heart muscle. Experiments showed that Casq2 acts as a luminal calcium sensor in the sarcoplasmic reticulum, controlling RyR2 open probability based on luminal calcium levels. Specifically, the study found that 1) Casq2 binds terbium, which can be displaced by calcium or magnesium, 2) luminal terbium or magnesium increases RyR2 open probability similarly to luminal calcium, and 3) magnesium competes with calcium for binding on Casq2. These results support the conclusion that Casq2 acts as a luminal divalent cation sensor that modulates RyR2 gating
Real-time PCR is a technique that monitors DNA amplification during the PCR process in real-time using fluorescence detection. It allows for both quantification of DNA present and detection of DNA amplification as it occurs. Real-time PCR has advantages over traditional PCR such as higher sensitivity, specificity, and ability to provide quantitative results. It uses sequence-specific DNA probes labeled with fluorescent dyes and quenchers to detect amplification of target DNA sequences. Data analysis can provide both absolute and relative quantification of DNA targets. Real-time PCR has many applications including gene expression analysis, disease diagnosis, and food and environmental testing.
- Proteomics involves the analysis of proteins, including isolation, separation, and identification techniques
- Key separation methods are SDS-PAGE, which separates by size, and 2D gel electrophoresis, which separates by both size and isoelectric point
- Protein identification relies on mass spectrometry to determine the mass-to-charge ratio of protein fragments, which are then matched to theoretical fragment masses to identify the source protein

High-performance anion-exchange chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection is valuable for oligosaccharide analysis with the value derived from the high-resolution separation followed by sensitive detection of native oligosaccharides. In this presentation the application of HPAE-PAD to oligosaccharides released from glycoproteins is demonstrated.
Proteins are polymers of amino acids linked by amide bonds. They serve nutritional and structural functions. Amino acids contain ionizable groups that exist as zwitterions at neutral pH. The three levels of protein structure are primary, secondary, and tertiary/quaternary. Primary structure is the amino acid sequence. Secondary structure includes alpha helices and beta sheets formed by hydrogen bonding. Tertiary/quaternary structure is the final 3D structure formed by interactions between R groups. Common methods to analyze proteins include Kjeldahl for nitrogen content, dye binding assays, Biuret reaction, and UV/fluorescence spectroscopy.

The purification process involved cell lysis, ammonium sulfate precipitation, hydrophobic interaction chromatography, anion exchange chromatography, size exclusion chromatography, and dialysis. Fractions were analyzed by enzyme activity assays and SDS-PAGE. The purified SOD1 was concentrated and stored after removing copper and zinc through dialysis at pH 3.8 to prevent aggregation.
The document describes research into developing new ligands that bind to the α2δ1 subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels for the treatment of neuropathic pain. Several chemical series were discovered that showed binding affinity for α2δ1 including pyrrolopyridazines, triazolophthalazines, and N-acridinylbutanediamines. The researchers aimed to improve potency, metabolic stability, and physicochemical properties. High-throughput methods identified new analogs and established that binding was specific to the α2δ1 target.
1. Mass spectrometry techniques are used to analyze biomolecules like proteins and peptides. Samples are ionized, separated by their mass-to-charge ratio, and detected.
2. Tandem mass spectrometry involves fragmenting ions and analyzing the fragment ions to determine sequence information. Peptide fragmentation produces b and y ion series that can be used for sequencing.
3. Manual interpretation of MS/MS spectra involves identifying immonium ions, neutral losses, and b/y ion pairs to assign sequence tags and identify peptides. Consideration of modifications is important.
The document discusses using Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling to randomly sample large numbers of viable metabolic networks from a vast space of possible metabolic networks in order to study how environmental versatility affects modularity in metabolic networks. It presents a framework for modeling metabolic genotypes as binary strings representing which reactions are present or absent and using flux balance analysis to determine viability. The goal is to ask whether versatility in sustaining life across different chemical environments promotes modularity in large-scale metabolic networks.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.
Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.
This presentation gives information on the pharmacology of Prostaglandins, Thromboxanes and Leukotrienes i.e. Eicosanoids. Eicosanoids are signaling molecules derived from polyunsaturated fatty acids like arachidonic acid. They are involved in complex control over inflammation, immunity, and the central nervous system. Eicosanoids are synthesized through the enzymatic oxidation of fatty acids by cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes. They have short half-lives and act locally through autocrine and paracrine signaling.
The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.
