Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNeuronal 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 keywordsAdhesion and Hardness Evaluation of Modified Silicone-Dammar as Natural Coating MaterialsR. Zakaria, A. H. AhmadProblem statement: Dammar is a natural resin that used anciently in varnish production. The use of dammar natural resin in coating is limited by undesirable properties for application in coating where it is considered very brittle. Due to dammar's brittle nature, an aged dammar coating can be easily scratched or abraded. Approach: Dammar natural resin could be modified into Silicone-Dammar … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 20 Mar 2012 · 7,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPreparation and Polishing Properties of Spherical Porous Silica AbrasiveHong Lei, Hu Li, Ping Liu, Ruling ChenProblem statement: Abrasive is one of key influencing factors on the polished surface quality in Chemical Mechanical Polishing (CMP). Solid abrasives in CMP slurries are easy to cause polishing scratches. It is well known that reducing the hardness of abrasives would improve the polished surface quality. Therefore, the change in structure or shape of the abrasives means a change in … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 9,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsImpact of L-Carnitine and Cinnamon on Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase Gene Expression in Heart and Brain of Insulin Resistant RatsMona A. MohamedProblem statement: Evaluate the effects of daily administration of L-carnitine and cinnamon extract for two weeks on the expression of Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) and inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase (iNOS) genes in cardiac and brain tissues of rats with Insulin Resistance (IR). Approach: Rats were divided into 4 groups (8 animals each): Group (1) rats fed control diet (60% starch) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,740 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCharacterization of Pullulanase Type II from Bacillus cereus H1.5Hii Siew Ling, Tau Chuan Ling, Rosfarizan Mohamad, Arbakariya B. AriffProblem statement: Pullulanase is one of the important enzymes in starch industry. Search for the pullulanase with distinct features, possibly from easily grown bacterium, is of interest for industrial applications Approach: The extracellular pullulanase produced by Bacillus cereus HI.5 was purified by chromatographic method of DEAE-Sepharose, followed by Superdex gel filtration. The enzyme was characterized in terms of the optimal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,808 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsKinetic Models for Anaerobic Fermentation Processes-A ReviewEmmanuel Amagu EchieguA review of basic kinetic models describing the generation of biomass and utilization of substrates in anaerobic fermentation processes is presented as well as the stoichiometric and empirical models for the prediction of biogas production. The applications of these models to anaerobic reactor systems such as the CSTR, activated sludge, plug flow reactor, etc are also presented. These models are … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 24 Jul 2015 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTHE STRUCTURE AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF ALUMINA FILM PREPARED BY RF DIODE SPUTTERINGH. Panitchakan, P. LimsuwanAlumina (Al2O3) films were prepared on Al2O3-TiC substrates by RF diode sputtering. The target sputtering power was varied from 4 to 8 kW. The effects of target sputtering power on the structure and mechanical properties of alumina films were investigated. The results show that the structure of the alumina films deposited at all the target sputtering powers is amorphous. However, … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Jul 2013 · 6,897 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSolid State Fermentation of Mexican Oregano (Lippia Berlandieri Schauer) WastePaola Melendez-Renteria, Virginia Nevarez-Moorillon, R. Rodriguez-Herrera, Cristobal Noe AguilarProblem statement: Mexican oregano is recognized for their aromatic characteristics and flavor quality. Principal products obtained from the plant and marketing are the leaves and essential oil; however the extraction of the essential oil generates large amounts of agro industrial wastes; that can be used as support-substrates in Solid-State Fermentations (SSF). Approach: In this study a fungal bioprocess, as solid … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 8,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOn the Hormetic Behaviour of Drugs Binding to Different Redox States of Amine Oxidase EnzymesDeepak Narang, G. Reid McDonald, David J. Smith et al.Classical monoamine oxidases and copper-containing semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidases are drug targets for a variety of established and novel pharmaceuticals used to treat conditions such as depression, Parkinsonism and inflammatory disorders. Development of enzyme inhibitors, both historically and currently, assumes an underlying adherence of these enzymes to Michaelis-Menten kinetic principles. In this mini-review, we discuss historical data from several laboratories and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
