Prediction of secondary structure of human haptoglobin.

Abstract:

:Secondary structure of alpha (light) and beta (heavy) chains of human haptoglobin was proposed. The Chou-Fasman predictive method was used in conjunction with the hydrophobic character and hydropathy scale value assigned to each amino acid residue in the primary sequence of the protein. Moreover, by means of hydrophilicity values of amino acids, the location of antigenic determinants was predicted.

  • Advanced oxidation protein products and inflammatory markers in liver cirrhosis: a comparison between alcohol-related and HCV-related cirrhosis.

    abstract::Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) are protein markers of oxidative stress with pro-inflammatory properties that accumulated in liver cirrhosis. In the present study, we investigated the association between chronic inflammatory response triggered by AOPPs and the severity of liver disease as assessed by the C...
