recommendations! Published in 2022 at "ChemBioChem"

DOI: 10.1002/cbic.202100658

Abstract: The rippled sheet structure is a remarkable insight due to Pauling and Corey, that supplements the pleated sheet structure of homochiral proteins introduced in 1951. Whereas the pleated sheet was immediately adopted by the scientific… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuron.2021.05.018

Abstract: In this issue of Neuron, Boivin et al. (2021) show that a polyglycine-expanded protein, uN2CpolyG, is translated from an expansion of GGC repeats in the 5' UTR of the NOTCH2NLC (Notch homolog 2 N-terminal-like C) gene,… read more here.

recommendations! Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Genetics"

DOI: 10.3389/fgene.2022.843014

Abstract: Microsatellites are repeated DNA sequences of 3–6 nucleotides highly variable in length and sequence and that have important roles in genomes regulation and evolution. However, expansion of a subset of these microsatellites over a threshold… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/polym14235263

Abstract: Two different polyglycine-rich fragments were selected as representatives of major ampullate gland spidroins (MaSp) 1 and 2 types, and their behavior in a water-saturated environment was simulated within the framework of molecular dynamics (MD). The… read more here.
