A third type of bacterial toxin, diphtheria toxin, catalyzes the ADP-ribosylation of eukaryotic elongation factor (EFTU), a type of small G protein involved in protein synthesis (Table 19-2). The functional activity of the elongation factor is inhibitedby this reaction. Finally, a botulinum toxin ADP-ribosylates and disrupts the function of the small G protein Rho, which appears to be involved in assembly and rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton (Table 19-2). These toxins maybe involved in neuropathy (see Ch. 36) and membrane trafficking (see Ch. 9). 

The use of protein immobilised to the surface of a silica gel or to another support has been a very successful approach for the chiral separation of various pharmaceuticals. The AGP stationary phase has been shown to have the broadest enantiorecognition abilities while the BSA stationary phase is especially useful for aromatic compounds. " Table 9 shows some examples of separations that were obtained on the protein-type of CSPs. 

The usefulness of protein-type CSPs has already been shown in particular Chiral-AOP and Ultron ES-OVM (see Table 2) have a very broad range of enantioselectivity. It is not, however, possible to systematically predict the resolution on such CSPs, but the overall retention, selectivity and efficiency can be modified to a certain extent by altering several key variables ... 

This hypothesis suggests that drug-resistant mutations would be of the type that destabilize protein structures. Such mutations are typically from larger to smaller side chains or from highly branched to less branched side chains [43-45]. Four of five observed compensation mutants are of this type (Table... 

Eight combinations (types 1-8, Table 10.12) of Wx-Al, Wx-Bl and Wx-Dl proteins are possible in common wheats.257 Near-isogenic lines of the eight types of wheats showed apparent amylose levels of 3% to 25%, as determined by the blue color of the amylose-iodine complex.266 The amylose level in wheat kernels increases positively with the level of waxy proteins.257,269 271 In the double nulls, the Wx-Al protein in type 5 wheat produces —3% less amylose than the Wx-Bl and Wx-Dl proteins (types 6 and 7, respectively). In the single nulls, compared to the wild type (type 1), absence of Wx-Bl (type 3) reduces the amylose content by —2% compared to —1% for the absence of either of the other two waxy proteins (types 2... 

One difficulty in characterizing the CD for a typical p turn has been the lack of well characterized model compounds and the variability of the p turn structure in terms of allowable backbone dihedral angles. Early classification schemes described three general classes of p turns, termed types I, n, and III (see Table I). Type III turns resemble a single turn of a 3jo helix (see below), while types I and II are the most common structures for chain reversal found in globular proteins. Types I and IT have also been identified, with the prime symbols indicating an approximate 180° rotation of the peptide group of the i+lth residue. 

When adrenodoxin is reduced by NADPH and adrenodoxin reductase or by dithionite, a prominent signal appears as given in Fig. 8. A similar spectrum is obtained in the reduced testis protein (Fig. 8). The g-values of this type of signal are listed with reference to other non-heme iron proteins in Table 7. All of these non-heme iron proteins except rubredoxin... 

A keyword search will provide access to coordinate sets from all species that are currently available as well as various site-directed mutants, type 1 copper proteins substituted with metals other than copper, and ruthenated blue copper protein derivatives. Table 1 provides a summary (with references) of the structures of blue copper-binding domains elucidated using X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. 

Hence, we have made comparisons of amino acid compositions of a-lactalbumins (Table VI), mammalian c-type lysozymes (Table VII), and egg-white lysozymes (a variety of c type and one g type) (Table VIII). Where the sequence information is available, the compositions have been deduced from these results otherwise, the amino acid compositions are obtained from amino acid analysis of the protein. 

Table I through Table VII place in some context the extent of our understanding of virus structure. There are a remarkable number of structures that have led to insights of a general virological nature and specific to the virus type. Tables I-VII also make clear how far we have to go. About most virus families we know nothing in atomic detail. For others we have determined structures for one or two of several critical proteins. That said, the discussion starts with one of the best-characterized groups.

Protein type CSPs have to be considered as important and widely used tools for enantiomer separations (Table 9.9) and for analyzing stereoselective phenomena of biological significance, in particular for stereoselective drug-protein binding studies. The latter application, however, is beyond the scope of this report and the reader is referred to recent articles on this topic [4,223-232]. 

The VFe proteins of A. chroococcum and A. vinelandii have been purified to homogeneity ill, 27). Preparations with the highest activity contain 2 V, —20 Fe, and —20 g atoms per hexamer and have specific activities comparable to those of the MoFe protein (see Table II). Since their isolation, attention has naturally focused on the types of redox center they contain, particularly on the involvement of vanadium. Progress in this area has been rapid, and despite the presence of the additional subunit type and the probability that the VFe protein preparations currently available are a mixture of species, the spectroscopic and cofactor extrusion data summarized below are consistent with VFe and MoFe proteins having similar types of redox centers. 

Analysis of the EXAFS region of the spectra of VFe proteins allowed simulation of the spectra, with backscattering contributions from three compound shells, V-(0 or N), V-(S), and V-(Fe). These types of atoms and their distances from the V atom in the VFe protein are very similar to those of Mo in MoFe proteins (see Table III). 

The tubular reabsorptive process is saturable. Any increase in the filtered load (because of glomerular damage, increased glomerular vascular permeability [e.g., inflammatory response], or increased circulating concentration of low molecular weight proteins) or decrease in reabsorptive capacity (because of tubular damage) can result in increased urinary protein excretion proteinuria). The pattern of urinary protein excretion can be used to identify the cause and to classify the proteinuria, of which there are three main types (Table 45-5). Diagnostic approaches to the characterization of proteinuria are considered in Chapter 24.
