quorum sensing controls the luminescence of vibrio fischeri through the transcriptional activator luxr and the specific autoinducer signal produced by luxi. amino acid sequences of these two genes were analyzed using bioinformatics tools. luxi consists of 193 amino acids and appears to contain five α-helices and six ß-sheets when analyzed by sspro8. luxi belongs to the autoinducer synthetase fa...

interaction between urokinase-type plasminogen activator (upa) and its receptor (upar) plays an important role in the progression of numerous cancer types including breast cancer by promoting tumor initiating,  proliferation,  invasion  and  metastasis.  hence,  disruption  of  this  interaction  inhibits  their downstream cascades and subsequently tumor growth. for this, we created two series ...

Background: Septins are members of highly conserved polymerizing GTP binding proteins well described in the animal kingdom. 14 Septin proteins have been characterized in humans (SEPT1-SEPT14), some of which are tissue-specific. All of 14 genome-mapped human septins contain a highly conserved central GTP-binding domain which is very critical in GTPase signaling properties as well as oligomerizat...

Background and Objective: One of the main reasons for the ongoing pandemic is the substitutions in the Receptor binding domain(RBD), which is involved in binding to the ACE2 receptor. Methods: Oro-nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from 41 confirmed patients between September 2020 and May 2021 to analyze the mutations of SARS-CoV-2 RBD in Khuzestan Province. Bi-Directional sequencing was use...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus has a great role in causing illness humans and the most important relationship of its spike proteins with host ACE-2 receptors. After entry into human body, viral S protein receptor-binding domain binds to receptor. Two modes explained this paper an shedding. The shedding induces process cells by binding SARS-CoV-2 proteins. residues arginine lysine...
