Pancreas
Data on pancreas reported by researchers at Jagiellonian University
January 29th, 2007
Scientists discuss in "Hydrophobic collapse in late-stage folding (in silico) of bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor" new findings in pancreas. "Hydrophobic collapse is commonly considered as a process of significance for protein folding. Many models have been applied for description of this event," scientists in Cracow, Poland report. "A model introducing an external force field mimicking the hydrophobic environment and simultaneously the driving force for the folding process is presented in this paper. Bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI) was taken as a test protein. An early-stage folding (in silico) model presented elsewhere was used to create the starting...
