Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleActin Cytoskeleton and Related Proteins Role During Immune Cells Migration, Polarity and Activation: An OverviewClaudio Vieira da SilvaImmune cells migration, polarity and activation are essential during host immune response. Upon recognition of specific peptides presented by Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) molecules on Antigen Presenting Cells (APC), lymphocytes execute subset-related functions such as killing, help and regulation. These cells travel through the organism in a succession of steps, including entry into tissues, interstitial migration, APC scanning, synapse formation … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 19 Nov 2013 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModeling and Molecular Docking Studies on Rnase Aspergillus niger and Leishmania donovani Actin: Antileishmanial ActivityRavi Kumar Gundampati, Shraddha Sahu, Kirti Shila Sonkar et al.A.niger Rnase was designed from ACTBIND (PDB ID: 3D3Z). Yeast actin-human gelsolin segment 1 complex (PDB ID: 1YAG) was used as template for L. donovani actin protein for 3D model in Modeller9v8. These models were testified by PROCHECK, ERRAT, WHAT-IF, PROSA2003 and VERIFY-3D. All evidences suggest that the geometric quality of the backbone conformation, energy profile, residue interaction and contact … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,527 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessEvery word in the titleActinomyces Odontolyticus with Klebsiella and Bacteroides Presenting as Facio-Cervical Abscess with Extension to Scalp and no Sinus TractTanveer Mir, Anita Choudhary, Anshu Wadehra et al.Actinomycosis is a rare infectious bacterial disease caused by various Actinomyces species. Being very rare, Actinomyces is easily misdiagnosed. Actinomyces are common commensals of the oral cavity which predispose to local infections. We report a case of a 67-year-old female who initially presented with swelling of the left sided face which later on proved to be a mixed infection with … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 14 Jun 2019 · 7,241 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePlant Growth Promoting Activity of Actinomycetes Isolated from Soybean RhizosphereAris Tri Wahyudi, Jepri Agung Priyanto, Resti Afrista et al.Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) is considered as the biological agent for improving plant growth. One Group of PGPR that have an important role in growth promoting of plant is Actinomycetes. The objective of this study was to isolate and screen Actinomycetes isolated from soybean rhizosphere as growth promoter of soybean in vitro. Fifty-three Actinomycetes isolates have successfully been isolated … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2019 · 14,604 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleACTINOMYCES NAESLUNDII, A PREVIOUSLY UNDOCUMENTED CAUSE OF INFECTIVE ENDOCARDITIS; WITH LITERARY REVIEWLoren Garrison Morgan, Ashley L. Davis, Paul Poommipanit, Yasir AhmedActinomycotic endocarditis is a rare disease with only 18 documented cases to date. Most of these cases are sub-acute or chronic infections and usually lack the stigmata of classic endocarditis. This article reviews the details of previously published reports of endocarditis due to various species of actinomyces, along with consensus opinion on diagnosis and treatment. We also present our unique … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 27 Oct 2014 · 6,972 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIdentification and Characterization of Antibiotic-Producing Actinomycetes IsolatesMeera Kumari, Bat-Erdene Myagmarjav, Birendra Prasad, Madhusudan ChoudharyActinomycetes are a gram-positive, filamentous subgroup of bacteria most known for antibiotic production. In fact, most of the antibiotics available today have originated from actinomycetes, namely from the genus Streptomyces. Novel bacteria with antimicrobial activities have been discovered from bacterial screen studies for decades and there is still much more yet to be unearthed. One hundred seventy five strains of … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 25 Jun 2013 · 15,437 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntibiotic Resistance and Chromium Reduction Pattern Among ActinomycetesPreeti Jain, Alina Amatullah, Samiul Alam Rajib, Hasan Mahmud RezaActinomycetes, one of the most important groups of microbes, exhibit many interesting activities such as degradation and transformation of organic and metal substrates together with production of antibiotics. With these bioactivities, actinomycetes would play an important role in the webs of the marine environment. The present study was designed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern, antibiotic producing potential and chromium … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDetermination and Evaluation of Antioxidative Activity in Red Dragon Fruit (Hylocereus undatus) and Green Kiwi Fruit (Actinidia deliciosa)Normala Halimoon, Mardhiah Hayati Abdul HasanProblem statement: Dragon fruit or pitahaya (Hylocereus undatus), is believed to be a healthy source of vitamins, fiber and antioxidants, especially the red-fleshed varieties which contain lycopene. Approach:Compared to green kiwi fruit (Actinidia deliciosa), which already known contain high antioxidant activity. Results:The antioxidant capacity of Hylocereus undatus (H. undatus) and Actinidia deliciosa (A. deliciosa) in three different solvent extraction; ethanol, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 9,154 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleScreening of Actinomycete Isolates from Niche Habitats in Manipur for Antibiotic ActivityDebananda S. Ningthoujam, Suchitra Sanasam, Salam NimaichandProblem statement: The exhaustion of the usual terrestrial sources and the rise of resistant pathogens dictate the search for novel actinomycetes and new antibiotics. In this context, niche habitats such as caves, pristine forests, lakes, rivers, and other wetlands, high salt environments, marine ecosystems and endophytic niches are promising targets for survey of bioactive actinomycetes. Approach: Actinomycetes were isolated from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,765 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCytotoxic and Antimicrobial Potential of Actinomycete Species Saccharopolyspora salina VITSDK4 Isolated from the Bay of Bengal Coast of IndiaK. Suthindhiran, K. KannabiranProblem statement: Although the diversity of marine Actinobacteria have been studied and biotechnologically exploited throughout the world, the studies on marine actinobacteria in Indian peninsula are largely unexplored.
