8). Figure 1: A sequence alignment of amino-acid residues near the H-9 (α9) and H-10 (α10) helix of class C β-lactamases with extended substrate spectrum.

There is an alpha helix, for example, where the chain of amino acids twists into a right-handed coil, and so-called folded beta-sheet proteins. These formations determine how the proteins interact ...

Researchers from Mainz University and EMBL Hamburg present a new approach to determine the form of disordered proteins by using two different methods simultaneously in a single sample. Their findings ...
