Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApoptosis in Yeast is Modulated by Clove Leaf Extract and Eugenol Potentially by Interfering Caspase YCA1Septyani Amini, Rika Indri Astuti, Irmanida BatubaraApoptosis is a process of cell death important for preventing the development of diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, autoimmune, and cardiovascular disease. Apoptosis is reported to be potentially induced by antioxidant compounds, including phytoextract. Thus in this study, we determined the potential of apoptotic modulation in yeast cells by clove extract, which was rich in eugenol. Apoptotic in yeast … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 15 Sep 2022 · 5,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStructural and Substrate Interaction Properties of Alkaline Phosphatase from Paenibacillus sp. PSB04: In-Silico AnalysisHerman Umbau Lindang, Cahyo BudimanA Phosphate-Solubilising Bacterium (PSB) of Paenibacillus sp. PSB04 was previously isolated from the Sabah tropical rainforest in Malaysia. Interestingly, the genome sequence of the PSB04 strain harbored an Alkaline Phosphatase (AP) (EC 3.1.3.1) gene and was hypothesized to have unique structural characteristics. Therefore, this study aims to determine the AP three-Dimensional (3D) model and catalytic mechanism from Paenibacillus sp. PSB04 … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 16 Jul 2022 · 5,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Aid Screening for Potential Antimalarial Choroquinone Compounds as Covid 19 Utilizing Computational Calculations and Molecular Docking StudyAsmaa Aboelnaga, Asmaa M. Fahim, Taghreed H. EL-SayedClick reaction of 4,7-dichloroquinoline (1) with thiosemicarbazide (2) to afford the corresponding 2-(7-chloroquinolin-4-yl)thiosemicarbazide (3) utilized ultrasonic irradiation which can cyclized easily with ethylacetoacetate to give the 3-(7-chloroquinolin-4-ylamino)-tetrahydro-6-methyl-2-thioxopyrimidin-4(1H)-one (4) via nucleophilic substitution reaction. The synthesized compounds was examined in vitro antimalarial activity with IC50 = 11.92, 25.37 μg/mL against chloroquinone drug. Furthermore, the theoretical investigation of most active compounds CQT and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2020 · 6,568 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractCommentary-How do we Improve Training for Receptor Research?Marilee Ann BenoreThis issue of the American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology features articles about receptor-ligand interactions that are critical to the wellbeing of all living organisms. The importance of the field of receptor research is supported by the large number of articles published in journals, the numerous specialty journals, the international conferences and the percentage of legal drugs on the market … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 8 Dec 2015 · 8,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHOMOLOGY MODELING AND MOLECULAR DYNAMICS STUDIES OF EC1 DOMAIN OF VE-CADHERIN TO ELUCIDATE DOCKING INTERACTION WITH CADHERIN-DERIVED PEPTIDEVivitri Dewi Prasasty, Usman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Teruna Jaya SiahaanVE-cadherin is a protein in the cadherin family that is found at the adherens junctions of the microvessel endothelial cells of the Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB). It is recognized as the homotypic cell adhesion molecules and there is limited structural information on how VE-cadherins mediate cell-cell adhesion. It has been shown that the EC1 domain of cadherins is important for the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2014 · 7,530 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-Yield Production of Bioactive Flatfish (Paralichthys olivaceus) Myostatin-1 Prodomain in Escherichia coliIl Shik Shin, Hyung-Joo Jin, Jeong Hwan Kim et al.Myostatin Propeptide (MstnPro), the N-terminal part of Mstn precursor molecule, binds to Mstn and suppress its activity. Mstn is a potent negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth in many animal species, thus MstnPro has a great potential to be used as an agent to enhance skeletal muscle growth in animal species. Bioactive fish Myostatin-1 Propeptide (Mstn1Pro) proteins were recently expressed … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 8,012 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModulation of the GABAA Receptor by Srif in Rat ThalamusFatiha Chigr, Mariama El Ouahli, Ghizlane Er-Raoui et al.Somatostatin has been reported to modulate GABAA receptor complex in many brain structures. This study was conducted to investigate somatostatin modulation of the GABAA receptor binding in several rat diencephalic structures, focusing primarily on the thalamus, as this structure plays important roles. Animals were assigned to control conditions. Changes in specific binding of GABAA receptor as labelled with [35S]t-Butylbicyclophosphorothionate (TBPS) … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 14 Sep 2012 · 6,963 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDihydrobiopterin (BH2): Key Determinant in Influencing Arginine Mediated Endothelial Tolerance and DysfunctionSrinidi Mohan, Harsh Patel, Jorge Bolinaga et al.The redox-sensitive tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential cofactor that is required by endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase (eNOS) for L-arginine (ARG) mediated Nitric Oxide (NO) generation. Oxidation of BH4 causes cofactor insufficiency and uncoupling of eNOS, resulting in product switching from NO to O2⋅– production. Here we tested the hypothesis that eNOS uncoupling is not simply a consequence of BH4 insufficiency, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,348 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico, In Vitro and In Vivo Assessment of Safety and Anti-inflammatory Activity of CurcuminM. Venkata, R. Sripathy, D. Anjana et al.Problem statement: Curcumin the active component of turmeric is known for its wide biological actions. Extensive studies on curcumin highlighted its anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-microbial, anti-carcinogenic and anti-coagulant activity. The anti-inflammatory activities of curcumin have been demonstrated both in vitro and in vivo. Though curcumin and its anti-inflammatory properties are well documented, the exact mechanism of action and effective in vivo … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 23 Feb 2012 · 8,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacteristic Study of the Marine Algae Sargassum sp. on Metal AdsorptionA. Saravanan, V. Brindha, Soundarajan KrishnanProblem statement: Biomass of brown marine macro algae is a biological resource that is available in large quantities and can form a good base for the development of biosorbent material.
