The membrane bound LRR lipoprotein Slr, and the cell wall-anchored M1 protein from Streptococcus pyogenes both interact with type I collagen.

Streptococcus pyogenes is an important human pathogen and surface structures allow it to adhere to, colonize and invade the human host.Proteins containing leucine rich repeats (LRR) have been identified in mammals, viruses, archaea and several bacterial species.The LRRs are often involved in protein-protein interaction, are typically 20-30 amino ac

The choice of reference point for computing sagittal plane angular momentum affects inferences about dynamic balance

Background Measures of whole-body angular momentum in the sagittal plane are commonly Shrubs used to characterize dynamic balance during human walking.To compute angular momentum, one must specify a reference point about which momentum is calculated.Although biomechanists primarily compute angular momentum about the center of mass (CoM), momentum-b
