Development of NMR Methodologies to Study Site Specific Zinc-Protein Interactions
(East Carolina University, 2021-07-26)Found in all three biological domains of life and the second most abundant metal in the human body, zinc (Zn2+) is essential to various cellular processes like the metabolism of DNA and RNA, gene expression, and the ... -
Investigation of the Zinc binding region of Prothymosin-alpha : A spectroscopic and thermodynamic approach to study metal binding in Intrinsically disordered proteins
(East Carolina University, 2014)The goal of this study is to provide a deeper insight into how metals bind intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) by taking zinc binding to prothymosin-alpha as a case study. The involvement of metals in several diseases ...
