Abstract:
Short-term and prolonged (3 h) moderate (30 degrees C) hypothermia intensified oxidative modification of plasma proteins, while deep hypothermia (20 degrees C) decreased the intensity of this process to a control level. Preliminary intraperitoneal injection of dalargin had practically no effect on oxidative modification of plasma proteins during moderate hypothermia.

01:28Protein Denaturation
The function of proteins depends on their native three-dimensional structure, which is dictated by the amino acid sequence of the specific protein. Folding of the polypeptide chain takes place under specific conditions that energetically favor the folded conformation. In contrast, protein denaturation occurs spontaneously under unfavorable conditions that disrupt the integrity of the folded conformation. Thus, the chemical and physical environment of a protein, such as significant changes in pH...
01:26Protein Modifications in the RER
Modification of secretory and transmembrane proteins entering the rough ER begins in the ER lumen. These modifications aid in protein folding and stabilize the acquired tertiary structure. Protein modifications in the rough ER co-occur at different stages of protein folding.
Broadly, these modifications can be categorized into four main categories — glycosylation, formation of disulfide bonds, assembly of protein subunits, and specific proteolytic cleavages like removal of signal sequences.
