THE MEMBRANE BOUND LRR LIPOPROTEIN SLR, AND THE CELL WALL-ANCHORED M1 PROTEIN FROM STREPTOCOCCUS PYOGENES BOTH INTERACT WITH TYPE I COLLAGEN.

The membrane bound LRR lipoprotein Slr, and the cell wall-anchored M1 protein from Streptococcus pyogenes both interact with type I collagen.

Streptococcus pyogenes is an important human pathogen and surface structures allow it to adhere to, colonize and invade the human host.Proteins containing leucine rich repeats (LRR) have been identified in mammals, viruses, archaea and several bacterial species.The LRRs are often involved in protein-protein interaction, are typically 20-30 amino ac

The effect of training image and secondary data integration with multiple-point geostatistics in groundwater modelling

Multiple-point geostatistical simulation (MPS) has recently become popular in stochastic hydrogeology, terramycin scour tablets primarily because of its capability to derive multivariate distributions from a training image (TI).However, its application in three-dimensional (3-D) simulations has been constrained by the difficulty of constructing a 3

GelMA-based bioactive hydrogel scaffolds with multiple bone defect repair functions: therapeutic strategies and recent advances

Abstract Currently, the clinical treatment of critical bone defects attributed to various causes remains a great challenge, and repairing these defects with synthetic bone substitutes is the most common strategy.In general, tissue engineering materials that mimic the structural, mechanical and biological properties of natural bone have been extensi

Reproduction and population dynamics of Didelphis aurita Wied-Neuwied (Mammalia: Didelphimorphia) in the periurban environment of Santa Catarina Island, in southern Brazil

The various aspects of reproduction and population dynamics of Didelphis aurita were studied through capture-recapture on Santa Catarina Island, in southern Brazil.Surveys were carried out from April 1996 to March 1997.The study mars volta richmond area was located near the stream of a swamp in a disturbed Atlantic Forest area.On 880 trap-nights, 3
