Book Protein Research Progress

Download or read book Protein Research Progress written by Alan B. Boscoe and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proteins are large organic compounds made of amino acids arranged in a linear chain and joined together by peptide bonds between the carboxyl and amino groups of adjacent amino acid residues. The sequence of amino acids in a protein is defined by a gene and encoded in the genetic code. Although this genetic code specifies 20 'standard' amino acids, the residues in a protein are often chemically altered in post-translational modification: either before the protein can function in the cell, or as part of control mechanisms. Proteins can also work together to achieve a particular function, and they often associate to form stable complexes. Like other biological macromolecules such as polysaccharides and nucleic acids, proteins are essential parts of organisms and participate in every process within cells. Many proteins are enzymes that catalyse biochemical reactions, and are vital to metabolism. Proteins also have structural or mechanical functions, such as actin and myosin in muscle, and the proteins in the cytoskeleton, which forms a system of scaffolding that maintains cell shape. Other proteins are important in cell signalling, immune responses, cell adhesion, and the cell cycle. Protein is also a necessary part of animals' diets, since they cannot synthesise all the amino acids and must obtain essential amino acids from food. Through the process of digestion, animals break down ingested protein into free amino acids that can be used for protein synthesis. This new book presents the latest research in the field.

  • Pages : 505 pages

Download or read book Infectious Diseases written by Phyllis Kanki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infectious Diseases: Selected Entries from the Encyclopedia of Sustainability Science and Technology presents authoritative, peer-reviewed contributions from leading experts on a wide range of major infectious diseases of global importance. Infectious diseases account for more than 17 million deaths each year worldwide. While modern medicine and technology have diminished the threat of many of these pathogens in high-income countries, the ever present threats of re-emerging infections, population mobility, natural disasters, and pathogen genetic variability are but some of the reasons for the dynamic threat of this broad category of risks to human health. An indispensable resource for students and scientists, the volume also covers some of the new technologies currently under development for infectious disease prevention, treatment, and eradication. The greater part of the infectious disease burden remains in the tropics, where low and middle-income countries lack the resources, infrastructure, and health systems to mount or sustain control efforts. Many contributions describe the efforts of the scientific research community and international donor agencies to achieve the integrated goals of vigilant surveillance, improved and cost-effective diagnostics, and treatment for sustainable disease control.

Book Photomodification of Blood Using Low Intensity Optical Radiation

This book was released on 2020-09-23 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the molecular mechanism of low-intensity optical radiation action on patients undergoing phototherapy, the use of which has been expanding in recent years. The effect of phototherapy on blood oxygenation, as well as on metabolic processes, is studied here using optical radiation of various wavelengths. The book evaluates changes of blood coagulation, lipid exchange and glucose content, and considers the laws of blood photomodification and the main stages of organism photoactivation. Special attention is also given to the susceptibility of individual patients to blood irradiation and the methods for its control.
