  Glycerol dehydratase (GDHt, EC 4.2.1.30) is a key enzyme for the bioconversion of glycerol into the value-added chemicals and thereby has recently attracted a great deal of attention as an essential component for metabolic engineering . GDHt carries out a radical-mediated turnover of glycerol into 3

  2023-10-01

  

  Spectroscopic techniques are powerful biophysical tools used in the study of biomolecular structures, including those of proteins. UV–Vis melanocortin 1 receptor spectroscopy makes use of absorption property of the protein peptide backbone at around 218 nm, and aromatic amino acid residues primaril

  2023-10-01

  

  As the close paralog of adiponectin, we hypothesized that CTRP9 could participate in regulation of reproduction. In order to evaluate whether Ctrp9 plays a role in the control of reproduction in tilapia, i.p. injection experiment was performed. HPG (Hypothalamic/pituitary/gonadal) axis plays a key r

  Despite functional studies demonstrating the role of 5-HT in ureteral contractility, the source of endogenous 5-HT in the ureter is unclear. Since 5-HT-containing enterochromaffin cells, which are present in the gastrointestinal tract, could not be found in the ureter (Nocito et al., 2007, Ripoche,

  To evaluate the ability of both sets of compounds to inhibit the activity of 15-LOX an initial screen was performed, whose results are shown in . The comparison of inhibition values would seem to indicate that, in the HYD series, an electron donor group at the position increases and an electron at

  l-Arginine supplementation was reported to be efficient, inefficient or toxic in aged patients. The present study does not support our hypothesis that increased tissue arginase activity may account for the ineffectiveness and even the toxicity of l-arginine supplementation in ageing. Indeed, except

  Human hepatocyte transplantation resulted in some animals with relatively sparse repopulation while others had >90% of their liver containing human hepatocytes. The presence of circulating human albumin varied based on the amount of repopulation as the degree of humanization is reported to correlate

  2023-09-28

  

  Plant defensins are cysteine-rich cationic peptides of 5–8 kDa whose mature domain comprises 45 to 54 amino nitric oxide synthase inhibitors residues, with an isoelectric point around 9. The global fold of plant defensins consists of a cysteine-stabilized motif (CSα/β) made up of an α-helix and a t

  Acknowledgments Introduction Amyloid deposit formation is defined by the aggregation of β-sheeted forms of proteins that appear as starch-like amorphous material [1], [2]. Using a Kongo red stain, amyloids show birefringence behavior and an apple-green to reddish multicolor emission. Extracere

  The G1202R mutation is located at the solvent front of the ALK kinase domain adjacent to the inhibitor's binding pocket. Although barely reported in the setting of crizotinib resistance, it has emerged as the most refractory mutation to both the first- and second-generation ALK inhibitors. The large

  2023-09-28

  

  In glaucoma, the primary retinal defect appears in the GCL, whereas the other retinal layers appear normal (Kendell et al., 1995). In the current work, chronic elevation of IOP induced RGC apoptosis, especially in the GCL, and α2 adrenergic treatment reduced RGC apoptosis. Various studies have repor

  We now present a series of findings obtained in heterologous expression systems, brain slices, and living animals that suggest that any interaction between mGlu7 and α1-adrenergic receptors exists, is specific, and is physiologically and behaviourally relevant. Materials and methods Norepinephri

  Besides its multiple peripheral effects adiponectin may ameliorate insulin resistance by acting in the brain, and intracerebroventricular administration of adiponectin in rodents decreases body weight by stimulating energy expenditure [13]. Adiponectin most likely crosses the blood-CSF-barrier (BCB)
