The oldest contests are held with longcrowers. Depending on the breed, either the duration of the crowing or the times the rooster crows within a certain time is measured. A capon is a castrated rooster. In the caponization procedure, the bird's
Protein S (Myxococcus xanthus) or, the full Protein S can bind more than two mol of calcium per mol of protein. Since both these claims have been experimentally shown to not be true then the exact binding site of Protein S cannot yet fully be described. Protein S (Myxococcus xanthus) Protein S is a protein found in "Myxococcus xanthus". Its name derives from being the "S" band in an alphabetical ordering of proteins run from Myxococcus xanthus cell contents on a SDS-denaturing gel. Its study was initially prompted by the huge increase in Protein S production during sporulation of Myxococcus xanthus. Though it has
