The JAL antigen (RH48) is the result of a change in RHCE that encodes Arg114Trp.

21 Dec 2009 BACKGROUND: The JAL antigen (Rh48) was discovered more than 30 years ago when it caused hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn in an African American family. A decade later it was found to cause hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn in a ... Read more...

Reconstitution and engineering of apoptotic protein interactions on the bacterial cell surface.

15 Sep 2009 The interactions between pro- and anti-apoptotic members of the Bcl-2 class of proteins control whether a cell lives or dies, and the study of these protein-protein interactions has been an area of intense research. In this report, we describe a new ... Read more...

The unfolding of the prion protein sheds light on the mechanisms of prion susceptibility and species barrier.

13 Sep 2009 Prion diseases are a group of fatal neurodegenerative disorders that manifest as infectious, sporadic, or familial and are all associated with the misfolding of the prion protein (PrP). Disease-modulating polymorphisms in the PrP amino acid sequence ... Read more...
