Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMinimum Free Energy Based Evaluation of mRNAs Secondary Structures Constructed by 18 Clinically Significant Exonic Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and Haplotypes of 5 Missense SNPs of RB1 GeneSarder Nasir Uddin, Apurba Majumder, Khandker Khaldun Islam et al.Clinically significant 18 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) from exon regions of Retinoblastoma gene (RB1) were analyzed to find out the structural variations in mRNAs. Online bioinformatic tools i.e., Vienna RNA, RNAfold were used for secondary structure analysis of mRNAs. Predicted minimum Free Energy Change (MFE) was calculated for mRNAs structures. It has been observed that the average of predicted MFE … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 21 Oct 2015 · 8,556 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCryptolepine Provokes Changes in the Expression of Cell Cycle Proteins in Growing CellsCharles Ansah, Nigel J. GooderhamProblem statement: Cryptolepine, the antimalarial plant alkaloid is cytotoxic to mammalian cells, but there is rather little understanding of the possible mechanisms involved in the cell-kill action of cryptolepine. Approach: We examined mammalian cells exposed to cryptolepine (0.5-5.0 μM) for effects on the cell cycle and associated alterations in the levels of major regulatory proteins using immunoblotting and flow cytometry. … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,396 accessesView PDF Cite
