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
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractAn Artificial Design Technique to Optimize Signal PeptideGao Cui-Fang, Wang Sen, Tian Feng-Wei et al.To determine optimal artificial signal peptide candidates for the possibility of creating high levels of secretion of heterologous proteins, substitution and redesign of amino acid sequences in the H-domain of the signal peptide was theoretically attempted. The method was based on comprehensive score matrix and Markov transfer matrix, which can make the artificial sequences maintain the structural characteristics and original … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 21 Jul 2017 · 8,063 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Nutritional Value of Instant Sea Cucumber Processed by the New Processing ApproachShujing Meng, Huiyan Zhang, Jianfeng Sun, Qian LiuIn this study, the micrograph, the composition of amino acids and fatty acids were analyzed contrastively among the fresh, instant and commercial sea cucumber. The micrographs of fresh, instant and commercial sea cucumbers indicated that the processing technology of instant sea cucumber could effectively inhibit the damage of sea cucumber collagen structure and better maintain its original structure. Depending on … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2017 · 9,891 accessesView PDFCite
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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutritional Evaluation and Effectiveness of Detoxified Jatropha curcas Kernel Meal in Finishing Pig Diets on Biogas and Methane Production from SlurryBernardo Berenchtein, Adibe Luiz Abdalla, Patricia Pimentel Santos Righetto et al.The purpose of this work was to evaluate Phorbol Ester’s (PE), Total Fenols (TF), Total Tannins (TT), Condensed Tannins (CT), Saponins Content (SPN), amino acids profiles and apparent digestibility of detoxicated Jatropha curcas meal in finishing pigs diets, as well as biogas and methane production by the manure from cross-bred pigs fed this meal. Apparent digestibility coefficients of Dry Matter … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2016 · 7,638 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel 2D Graphical Representation and its Application in the Similarities/Dissimilarities Analysis of Protein SequencesXianyou ZhuIn this study, a novel 2D graphical representation of protein sequences is proposed based on the physicochemical feature pK2 of amino acids first and then, on the basis of the newly given 2D graphical representation, a new concept of feature appearance model is introduced to analyze the similarity/dissimilarity of protein sequences. Finally, Theoretical and simulation results show that the newly … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 17 Mar 2016 · 6,964 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 abstractCloning and Functional Analysis of tri14 in Trichoderma brevicompactumXu-Ping Shentu, Xiao-Feng Yuan, Wei-Ping Liu et al.Trichodermin, one of the trichothecenes, is a potential antifungal antibiotic and a protein synthesis inhibitor. Trichodermin is synthesized mainly by Trichoderma brevicompactum, but the biosynthetic pathway has yet been completely elucidated. Our earlier transcriptome assay on the trichodermin synthesis in T. brevicompactum 0248 identified a unique tri14 transcript, designated Tbtri14, that was co-regulated with other tri cluster genes. However, the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2015 · 7,393 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRegeneration of Lyes for Cleaning-In-Place (CIP) Processes in Dairies: Comparison of Recycled Potash and Soda Solutions Cleaning PropertiesMarie Furic, Anne Elain, Walid Blel, Olivier SireThe regeneration of lyes for their integration in the dairy CIP was investigated applying an original process combining adsorption/coagulation and flocculation operations. Solutions of potassium hydroxide (KOH) and caustic soda (NaOH) soiled with 1% (v/v) of whole milk were submitted up to twenty successive regeneration cycles. The multiple recycling of the regenerated solutions was found to modify their physicochemical characteristics … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 6 Jul 2015 · 6,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReducing Redundancy of Codons through Total GraphNisha Gohain, Tazid Ali, Adil AkhtarIn this study some algebraic connections in genetic code is being discussed. The genetic code is the rule by which DNA stores the genetic information about formation of protein molecule. Based on the physico-chemical properties of four RNA (or DNA) bases, two orders in the base sets are obtained. This ordering allows us to define a ring structure on the … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2015 · 7,339 accessesView PDFCite
