The side chain of Gin 28 forms two hydrogen bonds (b) to the edge of the adenine base of base pair T14-Al in the major groove of the DNA. (Adapted from J. Anderson et al.. Nature 326 846-852, 1987.)... 

Figure 13.12 A concerted mechanism for GTP hydrolysis by Ga in which transfer of a proton to the y phosphate is coupled to deprotonation of the attacking water by Gin 200. (Adapted from J. Sondek et al., Nature 372 276-279, 1994.)...

Figure 15.15 Space-filling representation of a complex between lysozyme (green) and the Fab fragment of a monoclonal antilysozyme (blue and yellow). The Fab fragment and the antigen (lysozyme) have been separated in this diagram, and their combining surfaces are viewed end-on. Atoms that ate in contact in the complex are colored red both in Fab and lysozyme, except Gin 121 in lysozyme, which is violet. The diagram illustrates the large size of the interaction surfaces.

Figure 15.16 Detailed views of the environment of Gin 121 in the lysozyme-antilysozyme complex. Gin 121 in lysozyme is colored green both in the space-filling representation to the left and in the ball and stick model to the right. This side chain of the antigen fits into a hole between CDR3 regions of both the heavy (Tyr 101) and the light (Trp 92) chains as well as CDRl from the light chain (Tyr 32). (After A.G. Amit et al.. Science 233 747-753, 1986.)...

Copper supplements can also have an anthelmintic effect. Small amounts of copper oxide wire particles (COWP) were effective against both incoming and established Haemonchus contortus worms (Bang et al., 1990) and a mineral supplement containing elemental copper reduced faecal egg counts in lambs (Lindqvist et al., 2001). Also, Burke et al. (2004) showed a great reduction of faecal egg counts and adult worm burden of H. contortus in COWP-treated lambs. However, Dimander et al. (2003) could not show an effect against GIN in grazing cattle. 

Changes in dietary metabolisable energy supply do not seem to affect the expression of immunity to GIN (Donaldson et al., 1997 Houdijk et al.,... 

However, the improvement in energy supply clearly enhanced the development of resistance to GIN infection in lambs (Valdcrrabano et al.,... 

The few homeopathic products which were tested against GIN in sheep and cattle were based on plants and were not associated with a decrease in the worm burdens or faecal egg counts. However, considering the basic principles of homeopathy, it is likely that this approach reacts via modulation of the host s immune system (Cabaret et al., 2002). The use of non-classical parameters for assessing an antiparasitic effect should therefore be considered in future studies of homeopathy.
