Novel Mutants of the Aubergine Gene
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016)
Aubergine is an RNA-binding protein of the Piwi clade functioning in germline in the piRNA pathway that silences transposons and repetitive sequences. Several mutations of this gene exist but they mostly result in truncated ...
Structural Analysis of Peptide Fragments Following The Hydrolysis of Bovine Serum Albumin by Trypsin and Chymotrypsin
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016)
Peptide bond hydrolysis of bovine serum albumin (BSA) by chymotrypsin and trypsin was investigated by employing time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. As a fluorescent cross-linking reagent N-(1-pyrenyl) maleimide (PM) ...
Effects of Precursor Parameters on the Optical and Electrical Properties of AZO Nano-Composite Films
(Elsevier GMBH Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2016)
Al doped ZnO (AZO) nano-composite films were synthesized on glass substrates with the sol gel spin coating method at the room temperature. The activation energy of AZO nano-composite films was calculated to be 49 kj/mol ...
Status of malondialdehyde, catalase and superoxide dismutase levels/activities in schoolchildren with iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia of Kashere and its environs in Gombe State, Nigeria
(Elsevier, 2019)
Background: Iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) or iron deficiency (ID) is by far the most common form of disorder affecting the cognitive development, physical growth and school performance of children in developing countries ...
Salt inducible kinases as novel Notch interactors in the developing Drosophilaretina
(Public Library Science, 2020)
Developmental processes require strict regulation of proliferation, differentiation and patterning for the generation of final organ size. Aberrations in these fundamental events are critically important in tumorigenesis ...
Psychological correlates of COVID-19 conspiracy beliefs and preventive measures: Evidence from Turkey
(Springer, 2020)
COVID-19 pandemic has led to popular conspiracy theories regarding its origins and widespread concern over the level of compliance with preventive measures. In the current preregistered research, we recruited 1088 Turkish ...
Discovery of new azoles with potent activity against Candida spp. and Candida albicans biofilms through virtual screening
(Elsevier, 2020)
Systemic candidiasis is a rampant bloodstream infection ofCandidaspp. andC. albicansis the majorpathogen isolated from infected humans. Azoles, the most common class of antifungals which sufferfrom increasing resistance, ...
Identification of Alternative Allosteric Sites in Glycolytic Enzymes for Potential Use as Species-Specific Drug Targets
(Frontiers Media, 2020)
Three allosteric glycolytic enzymes, phosphofructokinase, glyceraldehyde-3 phosphate dehydrogenase and pyruvate kinase, associated with bacterial, parasitic and human species, were explored to identify potential allosteric ...
Identification of potential inhibitors of human methionine aminopeptidase (type II) for cancer therapy: Structure-based virtual screening, ADMET prediction and molecular dynamics studies
(Elsevier, 2020)
Methionine Aminopeptidases MetAPs are divalent-cofactor dependent enzymes that are responsible for the cleavage of the initiator Methionine from the nascent polypeptides. MetAPs are classified into two isoforms: namely, ...
Fluorescence and photon transmission techniques for studying film formation from PS/GO nanocomposites
(SPRINGER, 2020)
Steady-state fluorescence and UV-Vis techniques were used to study the film formation behavior of composites consisting of pyrene (P)-labeled polystyrene (PS) latex and graphene oxide (GO) in terms of PS latex/GO volume ...
