Iron is assembled inside cells into cofactors, essential for biological functions. Two types of cofactors, Iron Sulfur clusters and diferric tyrosyl radicals, share a conserved assembly complex containing the DRE2 enzyme, essentia
Lineage-specific evolution of SVA and LAVA retrotransposons
Annette Damert
SVA (SINE-R-VNTR-Alu) and LAVA (L1-Alu-VNTR-Alu) are composite non-autonomous non-LTR retrotransposons specific to hominoid primates. They are mobilized by the LINE-1-encoded protein machinery in trans. SVA insertions can cause di

Limited proteolysis of α-chains, followed by a deep cleavage of αβ-subunits via one-by-one mechanism, is observed in the course of papain hydrolysis of ginnacin, the storage 11S globulin from Ginkgo biloba seeds. An independent an
