decolorization of remazol brilliant blue r (rbbr) by trametessp. pellets was studied in a batch reactor. dye removal process was performed in shaken flasks which contained 100 ml of rbbr aqueous solution and fungal pellets. the process was followed for 48 h and the dye removal was analyzed at a visible spectrum of 590 nm. response surface methodology (rsm) employing box behnken design at three ...

Predicting miRNA target genes is one of the important issues in bioinformatics. The correlation analysis is a widely used method for exploring miRNA targets through microarray data. However, the experimental results show that correlation analysis leads to large false positive or negative results. In addition, the correlation analysis is not appropriate when multiple miRNAs simultaneously regula...

Previously, we described a novel nucleolar protein, NOP132, which interacts with the small GTP binding protein RRAG A. To elucidate the function of NOP132 in the nucleolus, we identified proteins that interact with NOP132 using mass spectrometric methods. NOP132 associated mainly with proteins involved in ribosome biogenesis and RNA metabolism, including the DEAD-box RNA helicase protein, DDX47...

1. The influence of different water temperatures on the electric organ discharge (EOD) of a mormyrid fish Marcusenius cyprinoïdes was studied. The range of the water temperatures was fixed according to the seasonal temperature variations of the rivers in Central Africa, the natural habitat of this species. 2. The EOD activity was characterized using the following parameters: mean EOD rate, EOD ...

We report the discovery of a luminous "yellow" post-asymptotic-giant-branch (PAGB) star in globular cluster (GC) M19 (NGC 6273), identified during our uBVI survey Galactic GCs. The photometric system is optimized to detect stars with large Balmer discontinuities, indicating very low surface gravities and high luminosities. spectral-energy distribution (SED) consistent an effective temperature a...
