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 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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Relevance of Bioinformatic Tools in the Study of Polymorphisms of the B4GALNT2 Gene and its Association with CancerEddaikra Atika, Haddouche Hayet, Touil-Boukoffa ChafiaThe human gene B4GALNT2 encodes an enzyme (β1,4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase II) that controls the expression of the blood group Sda carbohydrate’s antigen. This gene is located in position 17q21,32 and consists of 11 exons. The characterization and understanding of genetic variation is a real challenge in human genetics, both for healthy individuals and diseased ones. The in silico study of the B4GALNT2 … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 6,767 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

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 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 abstractIn Silico Characterization and Motif Election of Neurotoxins from Snake VenomMahmudul Hasan, Ziaul Faruque Joy, Elius Hossain Bhuiyan, Md Shiful IslamSnake venom is a mixture of many biological components. Snakes usually use their venomic armory to tackle different prey and predators in adverse natural world. Among various components of the snake venom, neurotoxins play an important role in exerting effect by blocking the neuromuscular transmission through selective binding to muscle nicotinic Acetyl-Choline Receptors (nAChR). A set of 30 reference protein … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 2 Mar 2015 · 7,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Silico Analysis of Cellulose Synthase Gene (NcCesA1) in Developing Xylem Tissues of Neolamarckia CadambaTiong Shing Yiing, Ho Wei Seng, Pang Shek Ling, Ismail JusohThis study reported the isolation and in silico characterization of full-length cellulose synthase (CesA) cDNA from Neolamarckia cadamba, an important tropical plantation tree species. CesA is a member of processive glycosyltransferases that involved in cellulose biosynthesis of plants. CesA acts as a central catalyst in the generation of plant cell wall biomass or cellulose. It also plays an important role … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 13 Jan 2015 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractCRISPR-CAS SYSTEM: A FEASIBLE SOLUTION FOR GETTING RID OF PERSISTENT VIRAL INFECTION?Zhaohua ZhongMany viruses, including DNA and RNA viruses, can persistently replicate in the infected cells and cause a prolonged damage. Herpes viruses can be latent in its host cells. Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) reversely transcripts its RNA genome to DNA and integrates to the host’s chromosome. Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) persistently stay in the host cells … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 10 Nov 2014 · 12,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION ON THE BASIS OF HA, NA AND M GENE REVEALED CHANGES IN CRITICAL AMINO ACID POSITIONS OF INFLUENZA A (H3N2) VIRUS CIRCULATING IN INDIA DURING 2011-2013Sachin Kumar, Shashi Khare, Bano Saidullah et al.Influenza a (H1N1) virus is responsible for acute respiratory infection in human, which occasionally causes epidemic and rarely a pandemic.
