Sensitivity good thyroid cancer (0.91) fair primary lung (0.70) liver (0.71). Compared with 67Ga, appears to have a higher sensitivity nearly the same cancer. might be useful distinguishing cold nodules differentiating from metastases.

Mammalian Musashi1 (Msi1) is an RNA-binding protein that regulates the translation of target mRNAs, and participates in maintenance cell 'stemness' tumorigenesis. Msi1 reportedly binds to 3'-untranslated region mRNA Numb, which encodes Notch inhibitor, impedes initiation its by competing with eIF4G for PABP binding, resulting triggering signaling. Here, mechanism recognizes RNA sequence using Ribonucleoprotein (RNP)-type domains (RBDs), RBD1 RBD2 has been revealed on identification minimal...

Abstract Understanding hydrogen-bonding networks in nanocrystals and microcrystals that are too small for X-ray diffractometry is a challenge. Although electron diffraction (ED) or 3D crystallography applicable to determining the structures of such owing their strong scattering power, these techniques still lead ambiguities hydrogen atom positions misassignments atoms with similar atomic numbers as carbon, nitrogen, oxygen. Here, we propose technique combining ED, solid-state NMR (SSNMR),...

NMR studies can provide unique information about protein conformations in solution. In CASP14, three reference structures provided by solution methods were available (T1027, T1029, and T1055), as well a fourth data set of NMR-derived contacts for an integral membrane (T1088). For the targets with NMR-based structures, best prediction results ranged from very good (GDT_TS = 0.90, T1055) to poor 0.47, T1029). We explored basis these comparing all CASP14 models against experimental data. T1027,...

Peptide segments in a protein, which can include an active site of interest or be series parts constituting the entire structure, are now selectively observed by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy using samples prepared intein-mediated ligation method. Two separate inteins were used to ligate NMR-transparent both ends NMR-visible segment, producing partly visible intact protein molecule.

Abstract Gaussia luciferase (GLuc) is a small (18.2 kDa; 168 residues) and thus attracting much attention as reporter protein, but the lack of structural information hampering further application. Here, we report first solution structure fully active, recombinant GLuc determined by heteronuclear multidimensional NMR. We obtained natively folded bacterial expression efficient refolding using Solubility Enhancement Petide (SEP) tag. Almost perfect assignments GLuc’s 1 H, 13 C 15 N backbone...

Amyloid-β (Aβ) fibrils in neuritic plaques are a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Since the 42-residue Aβ (Aβ42) fibril is most pathogenic among different species, its structural characterization crucial to our understanding AD. While several polymorphs have been reported for Aβ40, previous studies Aβ42 prepared at neutral pH detected essentially only one structure, with an S-shaped β-sheet arrangement (e.g., Xiao et al. Nat. Struct. Mol. Biol. 2015, 22, 499). Herein, we demonstrate...
