Kinetics of the interaction of endotoxin with polymyxin B and its analogs: a surface plasmon resonance analysis.

abstract：:14-3-3 proteins were the first signaling molecules to be identified as discrete phosphoserine/threonine binding modules. This family of proteins, which includes seven isotypes in human cells and up to 15 in plants, plays critical roles in cell signaling events that control progress through the cell cycle, transcriptio...
