Some species of halobacteria have acidic proteins that resist the denaturing effects of salts.
These highly acidic proteins are overwhelmingly negative in charge and are able to remain in solution even at high salt concentrations.
Phosphophoryn is the most acidic protein ever discovered and has an isoelectric point of 1.
The phosphoprotein P0 occurs as a complex with two other small acidic ribosomal proteins (P1 and P2).
The acidic proteins play a role in the configuration of the sheets.
While crystals grow, some of the acidic proteins get trapped within them.
They are acidic proteins with high proportions of alanine, glycine, proline, and glutamic acid.
The more acidic the protein is, the softer the cuticle.
It is an acidic protein which heterodimerizes with type II hair keratins to form hair and nails.
The cause of Alexander disease is a mutation in the gene encoding glial fibrillary acidic protein.
