Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCell Longevity of Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Clove Bud Extract Treatment May Occur in Sirtuin-Independent PathwayZahrah Qolbaina Ariybah, Rika Indri Astuti, Sri ListiyowatiAccumulation of free radicals causes cell damage that leads to a phenomenon called aging. Antioxidant application is one potential strategy to avoid the damage of free radical accumulation. Many reports resume that clove, one of Indonesia’s spices, contain high amount of antioxidant. Our previous research had proven that clove extract could extend longevity in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. However, cellular mechanism … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 3 Aug 2021 · 6,659 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn silico Assessment of the Arg85Trp Glucokinase Mutation EffectsFaiza Bouldjennet, Souhila Bouaziz-Terrachet, Malha Azzouz, Rachida RaacheMaturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (MODY) is a heterogeneous group of autosomal dominantly inherited, young-onset β-cell disorders that account for approximately 2% of non-insulin-dependent diabetics in Europe. MODY2 or GCK-MODY is caused by inactivating heterozygous mutations in the glucokinase. Linkage of MODY to the Arg85Trp GCK mutation, among Algerian diabetic patients has been established in our previous research. The … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 6,808 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Spring Wheat Mutation Resources with Improved Grain Quality, Metals Bioavailability and Yield ComponentsSaule Kenzhebayeva, Alfia Abekova, Guoping Zhang et al.Genetic variability in micronutrients is limited in wheat varieties. To broaden variation, seeds of cv. Eritrospermum-35 were irradiated with 100 and 200 Gy using 60Co, the treated seeds were grown to M7 generation with successive selection of the highest yield lines in each generation. Selected lines were evaluated for yield and grain quality traits such as iron, zinc and phytic … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 2 Jan 2018 · 8,672 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification and Characterization of Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase in Oleaginous Yeast Rhodosporidium toruloidesZhen Wang, Huaiyuan Zhang, Lina Zhao, Yuanda SongDiacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), which catalyzes TAG formation from DAG and acyl-CoA, has been considered to play a vital role in TAG accumulation in oleaginous microorganisms. The genome of oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides contains two putative DGAT genes, RtDGATa and RtDGATb, which shared little conserved amino acid coding sequence with each other. Phylogeny tree analysis showed that RtDGATa belonged to DGAT1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Oct 2016 · 7,387 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Cultivation of Local Kidney Bean (Phaseolus Vulgaris L) Through Breeding to use Multi gamma Irradiation Technique (Nuclear)Bartholomeus Pasangka, ReflyMutation on the all species of plant were generally caused by gamma or multi gamma radiation sources. The largest effect of that was occurred on chromosome and genetic factor, specially on structure and composition of chromosome and Deoxyribo Nucleic Acid (DNA). This case can be used for breeding of several important plants in Agricultural science.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn-silico Rational Protein Engineering and Design Approach to Improve Thermostability of a Haloalkane Dehalogenase EnzymeRaghunath Satpathy, V. Badireenath Konkimalla, Jagnyeswar RathaThermostability of enzymes is a major prerequisite for use in industrial enzymology. There are as such no simple general principles for achieving thermostability in case of enzymes as many factors are required to fulfil for different enzymes. The present study describes computational methods to design thermostable haloalkane dehalogenase enzyme using the crystal structure available Protein Data Bank (PDB ID: 1EDE). … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Oct 2015 · 8,279 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Food Additives Nitrite and Nitrate and Microbiological Safety of Food ProductsStefanie Müller-Herbst, Anna Mühlig, Jan Kabisch et al.In Germany, raw sausages are typically produced according to a technology referred to as hurdle technology (Leistner, 2000). The combination of several stressful conditions should successfully inhibit growth and survival of pathogenic bacteria, which can be regularly found in raw pork or beef material (Mataragas et al., 2008; Rhoades et al., 2009).
