in this study escherichia coli de3 containing expression vector (pet21a) with cloned persian sturgeon growth hormone (psgh) gene was grown in 10 ml lb broth on a 150 rpm shaker, at the temperature of 37 °c. at the late log phase (determined by od standard curve) 100 μl isopropyl β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside (iptg) was added for induction of gh synthesis. samples were taken every 2 hours and afte...

The ionized concentration of calcium in physiological buffers ([Ca(2+)]) is normally calculated using either tabulated constants or software programs. To investigate the accuracy of such calculations, the [Ca(2+)] in EGTA [ethylene glycol-bis(β-aminoethylether)-N,N,N|,N|-tetraacetic acid], BAPTA [1,2-bis(o-aminophenoxy) ethane-N,N,N|,N|-tetraacetic acid], HEDTA [N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-ethylenediami...

Consider a 2NTA A, and let k be the magnitude of the largest constant appearing in a clock constraint in the transitions of A. Given a timed word w = (;) of length n, deene R w to be the set comprising of i + c and (i + j + c)=2 for 1 i; j n ...

Here, we bind the sodium dependent amino acid transporter on nitrilotriacetic acid/polyethylene glycol functionalized gold sensors in detergents and perform a detergent-lipid exchange with phosphatidylcholine. We characterize the LeuT structure in the adsorbed film by magnetic contrast neutron reflection using the predicted model from molecular dynamic simulations.

Eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF-5A) is the only cellular protein known to contain a hypusine residue that is formed by transferring the aminobutyl moiety from spermidine to a specific lysine residue, followed by hydroxylation at the aminobutyl group. A simple PCR-based strategy was developed to obtain a full-length cDNA of Neurospora crassa eIF-5A. The strategy consists of (i) the design o...

N-terminal acetylation (NTA) catalysed by N-terminal acetyltransferases (Nats) is among the most common protein modifications in eukaryotes, but its significance is still enigmatic. Here we characterize the plant NatA complex and reveal evolutionary conservation of NatA biochemical properties in higher eukaryotes and uncover specific and essential functions of NatA for development, biosynthetic...

Metal dissociation constants for glyoxalase I from human erythrocytes were determined by use of nitrilotriacetic acid as a metal buffer. The constants for Zn2+, Co2+, Mn2+, and Mg2+ were (2.7 +/- 0.3) X 10(-11) M, (3.0 +/- 0.8) X 10(-10) M, (4.9 +/- 0.5) X 10(-9) M, and (1.0 +/- 0.2) X 10(-6) M, respectively, demonstrating that the natural cofactor, Zn2+, has the highest affinity for the apopro...

In the present study shacking and incubation experiments were carried out in order to evaluate the changes in heavy metal solubility in the studied soils by addition of different concentration of Ethylene dinitrilo tetra acetic acid (EDTA), Diethylene triamine penta acetic acid (DTPA), and Nitrilo tri acetic acid (NTA). The effects of EDTA, DTPA and NTA application on solubility of Copper (Cu),...
