study of cohesive devices in the textbook of english for the students of apsychology by rastegarpour
this study investigates the cohesive devices used in the textbook of english for the students of psychology. the research questions and hypotheses in the present study are based on what frequency and distribution of grammatical and lexical cohesive devices are. then, to answer the questions all grammatical and lexical cohesive devices in reading comprehension passages from 6 units of 21units th...
Inactivation of creatine kinase by S-glutathionylation of the active-site cysteine residue.
Protein S-thiolation, the formation of mixed disulphides of cysteine residues in proteins with low-molecular-mass thiols, occurs under conditions associated with oxidative stress and can lead to modification of protein function. In the present study, we examined the site of S-thiolation of the enzyme creatine kinase (CK), an important source of ATP in myocytes. Inactivation of this enzyme is th...
متن کاملCranberry phytochemicals inhibit glycation of human hemoglobin and serum albumin by scavenging reactive carbonyls.
Protein glycation caused by sugars and reactive carbonyls is a contributing factor to diabetic complications, aging, and other chronic diseases. The objective of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of cranberry phytochemicals on protein glycation. Cranberries, purified to yield sugar-free phytochemical powder, were fractionated into ethyl acetate and water fractions. Water frac...
متن کاملNovel aza peptide inhibitors and active-site probes of papain-family cysteine proteases.
Recent characterization of multiple classes of functionalized azapeptides as effective covalent inhibitors of cysteine proteases prompted us to investigate O-acyl hydroxamates and their azapeptide analogues for use as activity-based probes (ABPs). We report here a new class of azaglycine-containing O-acylhydroxamates that form stable covalent adducts with target proteases. This allows them to b...
متن کاملEvidence of Tryptophan at or near Active Site of Glucoamylase I of Arthrobotrys amerospora
Arthrobotrysamerospora (ATCC 34468) produced glucoamylase in a semi-synthetic medium containing starch as a sole carbon source. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of crude glucoamylase showed three isoenzymes. They were designated as glu I, glu II and glu III according to their electrophoretic mobility. These iso-glucoamylases were purified by column chromatography using DEAE-Sephadex A-50. The...
