Discovering new bioactive molecules from microbial sources
There is an increased need for new drug leads to treat diseases in humans, animals and plants. A dramatic example is represented by the need for novel and more effective antibiotics to combat multidrug-resistant microbial pathogens. Natural products represent a major source of approved drugs and still play an important role in supplying chemical diversity, despite a decreased interest by large ...
متن کاملMaritime Halophyte Species from Southern Portugal as Sources of Bioactive Molecules
Extracts of five halophytes from southern Portugal (Arthrocnemum macrostachyum, Mesembryanthemum edule, Juncus acutus, Plantago coronopus and Halimione portulacoides), were studied for antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and in vitro antitumor properties. The most active extracts towards the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical were the methanol extracts of M. edule (IC₅₀ = 0.1 mg/mL) and J....
متن کاملBioactive Peptides from Marine Sources-A Review
--Marine organisms represent a valuable source of new compounds. The biodiversity of the marine environment and the associated chemical diversity constitute a practically unlimited resource of new active substances in the field of the development of bioactive products. In this paper, the molecular diversity of different marine peptides is described as well as information about their biological ...
متن کاملDiscovering Concept Maps from Textual Sources
Concept maps and knowledge maps, often used as learning materials, enable users to recognize important concepts and the relationships between them. For example, concept maps can be used to provide adaptive learning guidance for learners such as path systems for curriculum sequencing to improve the effectiveness of learning process. Generation of concept maps typically involve domain experts, wh...
متن کاملDiscovering Regulatory Modules from Heterogeneous Information Sources
We present a method for inference of transcriptional modules from heterogeneous data sources. It allows identifying the responsible set of regulators in combination with their corresponding DNA recognition sites (motifs) and target genes. Our approach distinguishes itself from previous work in literature because it fully exploits the knowledge of three independently acquired data sources: ChIPc...
