Thiamine induces long-term changes in amino acid profiles and activities of 2-oxoglutarate and 2-oxoadipate dehydrogenases in rat brain
Molecular mechanisms of long-term changes in brain metabolism after thiamine administration (single i.p. injection, 400 mg/kg) were investigated. Protocols for discrimination of the activities of the thiamine ...

Structural properties of potexvirus coat proteins detected by optical methods
It has been shown by X-ray analysis that cores of coat proteins (CPs) from three potexviruses, flexible helical RNA-containing plant viruses, have similar α-helical structure. However, this similarity cannot e...
