Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVirtual Screening of CPP Conjugated Peptide as QcrB BCC Protein Inhibitors of Mycobacterium tuberculosis BacteriaMuhammad Ihsan Muttaqin, Manaman Huang, Usman Sumo Friend TambunanTuberculosis is a global leading cause of death, just below COVID-19 and ranked above HIV. This disease is caused by a pathogen called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which spreads easily through the air and is known to remain latent in most people's bodies, about a quarter of the world's population. The current problems with TB also include two main concerns: The official … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 14 Mar 2024 · 5,518 accessesView PDFCite
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 abstractA Polysaccharide-Rich Fraction Derived from Oviductus ranae with Antioxidant and Immunomodulatory PotentialsXiaojin Yu, Xinyu Wang, Xinyu Liu et al.Oviductus ranae, an animal-based traditional Chinese medicinal material listed in Chinese Pharmacopeia is widely consumed as tonic, approximately twenty Oviductus ranae-related functional foods have been approved on the market by National Medical Products Administration in China. Proteins are well-defined bioconstituents in Oviductus ranae, little information is availabe on its polysaccharides. In present work, a Polysaccharide-Rich fraction (POR-3) was fractionated from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 13 Sep 2020 · 6,620 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 abstractEvaluation of Polymorphisms at Heat Shock Protein 90 Gene by High Resolution Melting Assays for Potential Heat Tolerance among Nigerian Zebu Cattle BreedsGbolabo Onasanya, George Msalya, Aranganoor Thiruvenkadan et al.Heat Shock Protein (HSP) 90 gene is a member of HSPs sub-family that act as molecular chaperons whenever animals come under thermal stress. The genes fulfill essential roles of providing cellular protection, immune response, protein synthesis, protein folding and unfolding, protection from cellular stress, inhibitory apoptosis and adaptation. This study was designed to analyze polymorphisms of HSP 90 and to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 7 Mar 2020 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Docking of New Active Compounds Towards the Acetylcholinesterase EnzymeLemaoui Tarek, Hammoudi Nour El Houda, Benguerba Yacine, Attoui AyoubMolecular docking is a key instrument in structural molecular biology and computer-assisted drug design. The objective of ligand-protein docking is to expect the main binding mode(s) of a ligand with a protein of known three-dimensional structure. Effective docking methods search high-dimensional spaces effectively and finding a scoring function that correctly ranks candidate dockings (Morris et al., 2008). In this study … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 11,404 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractEditorial Commentary: Challenge of Non–AIDS-Defining Cancers (NADCs), Focusing on Trans Activation Response Element (TAR) RNA Embedding ExosomesLechuang Chen, Ge JinGlobally, 37.9 million people were living with HIV at the end of 2018 (Organization, 2018). Cancer is a major cause of mortality and morbidity in AIDS patients and chronically HIV-infected people. With the aid of combination Antiretroviral Therapy (ART), people living with HIV (PLWH) have a longer life span. However, because the virus is not completely eradicated, PLWH under antiretroviral … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 28 Nov 2019 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtein Sequences Features Extraction for Predicting Beta- Turns and their Types: A ReviewMurtada Khalafallah Elbashir ElfakiBeta-turns are considered to be important secondary structure types that have essential role in molecular recognition, protein folding and stability. They represent 25% of protein structures, therefore they are the most common type of non-repetitive or tight turns structures. Their prediction is considered to be an important issue in bioinformatics and molecular biology, because it provides valuable information and inputs … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 9 · 1 Oct 2019 · 7,694 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of Immunologically Active Untagged Recombinant DENV-2 NS1 in Escherichia coliDessy Natalia, Christian Heryakusuma, Fernita Puspasari et al.Dengue is an infectious disease affecting 390 millions people in tropical and subtropical region annually. Dengue virus NS1 protein plays an important role in viral replication in the host cell and it is detected in high level in the infected patient serum. A synthetic gene of untagged DENV-2 NS1 with codons optimization for expression in Escherichia coli has been generated … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 10 Oct 2018 · 10,346 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOligoasthenoteratozoospermia and Necrozoospermia: A Study of Sperm Na+, K+-ATPase α4 and Plasma Membrane Ca2+-ATPase 4 RegulationSilvia W. Lestari, Dessy Noor Miati, AsmarinahThe oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (OAT) and necrozoospermia are the extreme sperm abnormalities in male infertility. These sperm abnormalities may be related to the imbalance of ion transport which mediated by the ion-transporting P-type ATPases, such as Na+, K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase. Until now, there is limited data about the activity of Na+, K+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase in sperms in the OAT and necrozoospermia samples. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 3 · 3 Aug 2018 · 11,269 accessesView PDFCite
