Excessive consumption of Brazil nuts may lead to selenium toxicity owing to the high levels of selenium present in these nuts

Increases in ferritin and body iron stores have been detected frequently in NAFLD patients [22, 23]

Since this protein was shown to contain high levels of ordered secondary structure (49% -helical structure, 17% -structure, and 34% random coil structure) it was pointed out that clathrin, being characterized by a very large frictional ratio, cannot represent a random coil polypeptide chain, and it was therefore hypothesized that this protein consisted of several globular (likely -helical) domains connected by flexible polypeptide sequences to form a common locus (Pretorius et al., 1981)
