The major specificity-determining amino acids of the tomato Cf-9 disease resistance protein are at hypervariable solvent-exposed positions in the central leucine-rich repeats.

29 Sep 2009 The interaction between tomato and the leaf mold pathogen Cladosporium fulvum is controlled in a gene-for-gene manner by plant Cf genes that encode membrane-anchored extracytoplasmic leucine-rich repeat (LRR) glycoproteins, which confer recognition ... Read more...

Identifying native-like protein structures with scoring functions based on all-atom ECEPP force fields, implicit solvent models and structure relaxation.

29 Sep 2009 Availability of energy functions which can discriminate native-like from non-native protein conformations is crucial for theoretical protein structure prediction and refinement of low-resolution protein models. This article reports the results of ... Read more...

Channel-forming solvates of 6-chloro-2,5-dihydroxypyridine and its solvent-free tautomer 6-chloro-5-hydroxy-2-pyridone.

28 Sep 2009 On crystallization from CHCl3, CCl4, CH2ClCH2Cl and CHCl2CHCl2, 6-chloro-5-hydroxy-2-pyridone, C5H4ClNO2, (I), undergoes a tautomeric rearrangement to 6-chloro-2,5-dihydroxypyridine, (II). The resulting crystals, viz. 6-chloro-2,5-dihydroxypyridine ... Read more...
