Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Geobacillus thermodenitrificans Lipase Activity and Binding Affinity by Acetone Treatment: Kinetic and in silico InvestigationsAmmar Khazaal Kadhim Almansoori, Alyaa Abdulhussein Alsaedi et al.Lipase Geobacillus thermodenitrificans (LipGt) is a thermostable enzyme that has an optimal activity temperature of 65°C. It can tolerate various organic solvents and has an improved activity, especially in the presence of acetone. In this study, in-vitro and in-silico studies were carried out to investigate the effect of acetone in enhancing the kinetic and binding affinity of LipGt. The LipGt … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 10 Oct 2024 · 4,817 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanism Analysis of Artemisinin and Artesunate as Lung Cancer Therapy Agents Through in Silico MethodDidik Harmoko, Vivitri Dewi Prasasty, Adi YulandiSeveral in vitro studies have focused on the ability of artemisinin and its derivatives to suppress lung cancer cells, but there are still many biological processes and mechanisms, such as the interactions between the active compounds (ligands) and receptors that are not well understood and require further research. Drug targeting for lung cancer will be more precise and the inhibition … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 15 Feb 2024 · 6,144 accessesView PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAqueous Extracts of Bay Leaf (Laurus nobilis) and Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) Inhibit Iron-Induced Lipid Peroxidation and Key-Enzymes Implicated in Alzheimer’s Disease in Rat Brain-in VitroAyodeji O. Falade, Goodness I. Omolaiye, Kayode E. Adewole et al.Neurological disorders remain a global health challenge, with Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) as the most famous cause of dementia in old people. Nevertheless, culinary spices and herbs have shown promising potentials in the management of neurological diseases. This study aimed at investigating the neuroprotective property of aqueous extracts of bay leaf (Laurus nobilis) and rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) by assessing the antioxidant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 25 Jan 2022 · 7,955 accessesView PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico and in Vitro Studies: Tryparedoxin Peroxidase Inhibitor Activity of Methotrexate for Antileishmanial ActivityRavi Kumar Gundampati, Shraddha Sahu, Avinash Kumar Srivastava et al.In order to understand the mechanism of molecular interactions at the active site of Tryparedoxin Peroxidase (Try P), homology modeling and docking studies were performed. We generated a Three-Dimensional (3D) model of target protein based on the Crystal structure of Leishmania Major Try PI (PDB ID: 3TUE) using modeler software. Docking analysis was carried out to study the effects of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2013 · 7,893 accessesView PDF Cite
