Abstract Cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM), X-ray crystallography, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) contribute structural data that are interchangeable, HERBATINT 4C cross-verifiable, and visualizable on common platforms, making them powerful tools for our understanding of protein structures.Unfortunately, atomic force microscopy (AFM) ha

Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (HOA) is a syndrome characterized by digital clubbing, periosteal bone Quad Canes formation, and synovial effusions.Secondary HOA is associated with intrathoracic malignancy in most cases; however, in rare cases, HOA can be caused by extrathoracic conditions.We report early ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic res
