Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMolecular Characterization of Soybean Mosaic Virus NIa Protein and its Processing Event in Bacterial ExpressionBong K. Choi, Jae S. Park, Hye J. Ahn et al.Soybean mosaic virus (SMV)-CN18 is an Rsv resistance-breaking (RB) isolate to overcome soybean resistance genes Rsv1, Rsv3 and Rsv4. The aim of this study was to characterize nuclear inclusion protein a (NIa protein) of RB isolate at the molecular level and demonstrate its processing into genome-linked protein (VPg) and NIa-Pro domains in Esherichia coli containing a bacterial expression pET vector … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,902 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Contagious Pustular Dermatitis Virus in Goats of Sri LankaSusanthaa Piratheepan, Sumathy Puvanendran, Kalyani PereraContagious Pustular Dermatitis (CPD), is a zoonotic disease of small ruminants causing severe deterioration of skin. Contagious Pustular Dermatitis Virus (CPDV) is an epitheliotrophic virus belonging to the parapox virus. Accurate information on CPD in Sri Lanka is scarce. This study was conducted to investigate the prevalence and to characterize the CPD virus from goats in Sri Lanka and select … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2023 · 5,346 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus PCR in Detecting Target(s) of Hapalindole-T, From a Cyanobacterium, in Escherichia Coli: In Silico ValidationManoj K. Tripathi, Maheep Kumar, Vinay K. Singh et al.Problem statement: Identification of newer biomolecule as well as targets are a rising concern because of increasing drug resistance in bacteria. We have isolated a broad spectrum antibiotic biomolecule Hapalindole-T from a cyanobacterium, Fisherella sp. growing on local Azadirachta indica tree bark. A model bacterium E. coli was screened spontaneously for Hap-T resistance. These resistant strains of E. coli were … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 13,777 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNifH: Structural and Mechanistic Similarities with Proteins Involved in Diverse Biological ProcessesSurobhi Lahiri, Lakshmi Pulakat, Nara GaviniThe NifH protein is a subunit of the nitrogenase enzyme that catalyzes the reduction of atmospheric nitrogen to ammonia. This protein contains highly conserved regions including the nucleotide binding sites, metal center ligands and the Switch I and Switch II domains. A number of proteins have structural and mechanistic similarities as well as evolutionary relationships with the NifH protein, notable … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 6,671 accessesView PDF Cite
