Cardiac myosin binding protein-C (cMyBP-C) is an accessory protein found in the A-bands of vertebrate sarcomeres and mutations in the cMyBP-C gene are a leading cause of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The regulatory functions of cMyBP-C have been attributed to the

The "elution-band relaxation method" has been applied to the analysis of the cis-trans kinetics isomerization of the proline of L-Ala-L-Pro using reversed-phase liquid chromatography. A procedure suitable for cases where neither isomer can be injected separately is described.

Small intestinal dipeptidases (substrate: glycyl-L-leucine, L-methionyl-L-methionine, and L-alanyl-L-proline) were determined in uraemic and sham-operated rats given normal protein diet (24%), low protein diet (6%), and total parenteral nutrition for 10-14 days. Disaccharidases (substrate: maltose, sucrose, trehalose, and lactose) were measured
