United residue

A final fuels group eontains high-ash erudes and residuals. These aeeount for 5% of installed units. Residual fuel is the high-ash by-produet of distillation. Low eost makes them attraetive however, speeial equipment must always be added to a fuel system before they ean be utilized. Crude is attraetive as a fuel, sinee in pumping applieations it is burned straight from the pipeline. Table 12-2 shows data obtained from a number of users that...

Compare (a) the length of a peptide unit (residue) in a polypeptide in an extented ((3) conformation, (b) the length by which an a helix is extended by the addition of one amino acid unit (c) the length of one turn of an a helix, (d) the diameter of an a helix (both using atom centers in the backbones and using van der Waals radii) for a poly-L-alanine helix. 

Enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of the unit linkage of sequential residues of oligomers or polymers determine their substrate specificity by recognizing the particular unit residue in the sequential chain as well as the direction of the chain. For example, ribonuclease cleaves the 3 -phosphate of a pyrimidine nucleotide residue but not the 5 -phosphate, and trypsin hydrolyzes peptide bonds which involve the arginine or lysine residue at the carbonyl end but not at the amino end. This is also the case for the hydrolysis of a variety of synthetic substrates and quasi-substrates (Sect. 4.1). Synthetic trypsin substrates are ester or amide derivatives in which the site-specific group (positive charge) is contained in their carbonyl portion.

Blood transfusion Some 90% of cases of NANB posttransfusion hepatitis are caused by hepatitis C. The risk deriving from this greatly feared transmission route could be diminished by using the anti-HCV test to screen blood donors and blood units this caused a reduction from 4.0% to 0.6% and to < 1 for every 10,000 blood units (= residual risk if a so-called serological window is present). (295, 298, 301, 386, 396)... 

The molecular mass of a oligosaccharide can be calculated from residue masses of individual sugar units in the molecule from M = 18 + S (Residue masses of monomeric units). Residue masses of some important monomeric units are given in Table 20.1. Relevant sugar monomer stmctures are shown in Figure 20.1.

However, local and non-local interactions between side chains are essential to protein folding as well as protein assembly. To improve the performance of a coarse-grained model, it is necessary to explicitly describe the interactions involving side chains. We take an example from a more sophisticated physics-based CG model, namely united residue (UNRES) coarse-grained model, which has been developed by Scheraga and coworkers [29, 30] in this model. 

In another approach, He et al. (He et al., 2013) proposed a 2-site per nucleotide (NARES-2P, nucleic acid united residue 2-point model) CG model where chain connectivity, excluded volume and base dipole interactions are sufficient to form helical DNA and RNA structures. This model was parametrized using a bottom-up strategy by employing a set of statistical potentials, derived from DNA and RNA structures from the Protein Data Bank, and the Boltzmann inversion method to reproduce the structural features. The base-base interactions were parametrized by fitting the potential of mean force to detailed all-atoms MD simulations using also the Boltzmann inversion approach. The respective potentials do not explicitly define the nucleic-acid structure, dynamics and thermod3mamics, but are derived as potentials of mean force. By detailed analysis of the different contribution to the Hamiltonian, the authors determined that the multipole-multipole interactions are the principal factor responsible for the formation of regular structures, such as the double helical structures. 

The complete analysis of unknown complex polysaccharides presents a formidable task and the presence or absence of phosphorus is merely incidental. The number and identity of each monosaccharide unit (residue) has to be established as well as their linkage positions and sequence within the polymer. 

Antibodies have found many applications in clinical medicine and biotechnology. Moreover, antibodies are always required to immobilize on a solid interface. Meanwhile, the natural activity of adsorbed antibodies depends on its orientation on the solid interface. Therefore, Zhou et al (2003, 2004a) focused on the orientation of adsorbed antibodies on charged surfaces by performing multiscale simulations based on colloidal, united-residue, and all-atom models.

The presence of more than one bonded unit (residue) in the crystal structure. Residues can be chemically different, in which case a 1 1 mapping to the chemistry is preserved, or they may be chemically identical, in which case all chemical atoms will map to more than one crystallographic atom.
