Xylose isomerase (XI) is an industrially important metalloprotein studied for decades. Its reaction mechanism has been postulated to involve the movement of the catalytic metal cofactor to several different conformations. Here, a dose-dependent approach was used to...

Dissociation of transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-β1) from the inhibitory protein latency-associated peptide (LAP) can occur from low doses of X-ray irradiation of the LAP–TGF-β1 complex, resulting in the activation of TGF-β1 and can have health-related...
