Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Endoribonuclease Domain of IRE1 and its Substrate HAC1 are Structurally Linked Components of the Unfolded Protein Response in FungiLuis David Maldonado-BonillaThe unfolded protein response sustains the folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum under conditions that increase the activity of the secretory pathway. In fungi, the unfolded protein response exclusively depends on the kinase/endoribonuclease IRE1, which senses the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum lumen and catalyzes the committed step in the unconventional splicing of HAC1 mRNA that encodes … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 14 Oct 2020 · 6,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption Behavior of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 on a Graphite Substrate for Biomedical ApplicationsIzabele Marquetti, Salil DesaiThe interaction of proteins with biomaterials plays an important role for several biomedical applications including implants and tissue engineering. Although different experimental approaches have been explored, the investigation of the molecular models for protein-substrate interaction is warranted to control of cellular functions. In this study, Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations were used to study the adsorption behavior of Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 19 Jun 2018 · 8,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHomology Modeling of Buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) Interferon-Tau ProteinIndu Joshi, Sunil Kumar, Arminder Kaur et al.Interferon-Tau (IFNt) contributes towards maternal recognition of pregnancy in ruminants (like, cattle, buffalo, goat, giraffe). IFNt has been extensively studied in most of the ruminants except for buffalo Bubalus bubalis). The present study has been undertaken to predict the secondary structure of Interferon-tau in buffalo. The available amino acid sequence of bubaline IFNt (sequence database of SwissProt) was subjected to … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2018 · 7,522 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Mi1.2 Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Resistance GeneSherin Amin Mahfouze, Shipra Saxena, Heba Amin Mahfouze, Manchikatla Venkat RajamTomato (Solanum peruvianum) Mi gene provides resistance to whitefly (Bemisia tabaci), potato aphids and nematode making Mi a useful source in integrated pest management program. The aim of this work was to isolate, clone and sequence Mi1.2 gene from S. peruvianum. In addition, physico-chemical identification of amino acids deduced from Mi1.2 gene was done. Secondary (2D) and tertiary (3D) structures … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 15 Nov 2017 · 7,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractcDNA Cloning and Characterization of the House Dust Mite Allergen Sui p 2Joshua Evans M. Bajao, John Donnie A. RamosSuidasia pontifica (Sp) is a House Dust Mite (HDM) species found in tropical urban residential areas which causes sensitization of up to 75% of allergic patients. Cloning of allergens from Sp is a significant initial step in understanding the clinical significance of this HDM species. The study describes the cloning and in silico characterization of the group 2 allergen gene … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 14 May 2020 · 7,885 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysiological Active Substance Changes of Soybean Curd Residue Fermented by Preussia aemulans and its BioactivityYiting Li, Shili Meng, Min Shi, Zhenya ZhangA new species of fungus Preussia aemulans isolated from the Cordyceps sinensis fruiting body was cultured by soybean curd residue using solid-state fermentation method. The content of polysaccharide, amino acid, protein, phenolics and nucleoside were massively improved under the optimum conditions, including 10% adding dosage of glucose, 3% adding dosage of beef extract, 15 days of fermentation time. The crude … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2016 · 7,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico Sequence Analysis, Structure Prediction and Function Annotation of Melanocortin 1 Receptor Gene (MC1R) from the Guppy Poecilia reticulataAbdul Khader Sultan Mohideen, Mehboob Asrar Sheriff, Kareem AltaffThe common guppy, Poecilia reticulata is one of the most popular aquarium fish used as a model organism in toxicology, embryology and genetical studies. Vibrant colors in males are a secondary sexual character which attracts the females for mating. Pigmentation in guppy is found to be linked with melanin synthesis. Melanocortin genes are involved in the synthesis of melanin pigments. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 17 Nov 2015 · 8,614 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 abstractNeuronal Functions of Protein Phosphatase 2AHung-Tat Leung, Ning WangReversible protein phosphorylation is a common and important form of protein posttranslational modification which determines the proteins’ activities, substrate specificity and inhibitions or degradations, depending on the specific amino acid residue, or combination of residues, being targeted. While protein phosphorylations by kinases have been well studied, the importance of protein dephosphorylation by phosphatases has emerged over the past two decades … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 1 Apr 2014 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Cloning and Heterologous Expression of Human Interferon Alpha2b GeneI. Made Artika, Yemima Budirahardja, Anna Lucia EkowatiHuman alpha Interferons (hIFNα) have been shown to have antiviral, antiproliferative and immunomodulatory activities. The human interferon alpha2b (hIFNα2b), is one of the human interferon alpha2 sub variants, naturally synthesized as a polypeptide of 188 amino acid residues, the first 23 residues of which represents a signal peptide.
