Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleMicrocystin-LR Affects Ultimobranchial Gland of Catfish Heteropneustes fossilisChandra Prakash, Sunil Kumar SrivastavMicrocystin-LR (2.5 µg/25 g) was injected intraperitoneally to the fish Heteropneustes fossilis on day 1, 10 and 20 kept in either freshwater or freshwater containing ZnCl2. The fishes were killed on day 5, 10, 20 and 30 day. The serum calcium levels was estimated and ultimobranchial glands were processed for routine histology. Microcystin-LR administration to fish Heteropneustes fossilis induced hypocalcemia … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 5 Jul 2021 · 6,218 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleStructure Prediction and Binding Site Analysis of Hepatotoxic Microcystin-LR Degrading MlrC-Like Protein from Burkholderia sp. using Computational ApproachesDhananjaya P. Singh, Ratna Prabha, Vivek Keshri, P.C. AbhilashMicrocystin-LR (MCYST-LR) is a well characterized hepatotoxic heptapeptide produced by various species of cyanobacteria including Microcystis aeruginosa. Burkholderia is a genus of bacteria with cyanobacterial toxins degrading property. This study predicts the structure of microcystin degrading MlrC-like protein from Burkholderia sp. strain CCGE1002 that has microcystin degradation capability. Binding interaction of MlrC-like protein with MCYST-LR was studied. Three-dimensional model of … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 10 Jun 2016 · 8,076 accessesView PDF Cite
