The early C. elegans embryo is an attractive model system to investigate fundamental developmental processes. With the exception of mex-3 mRNA, maternally contributed mRNAs are thought to be distributed uniformly in the one-cell embryo. Here, we report and characterize the striking distribution of the mRNA encoding the novel protein ERA-1. We found that era-1 mRNA is enriched in the anterior of...

The effect of graded doses of erythorbic acid (ErA) on the content of ascorbic acid (AsA) in the tissues of guinea pigs administered AsA was studied. The guinea pigs were administered 5 mg AsA and 1, 5, 20, and 100 mg ErA; or 1 mg AsA and 1 and 20 mg ErA; or 20 mg AsA and 20 mg ErA for 16 days. The animals were then sacrificed, and the liver, adrenal glands, spleen, and kidneys were removed to ...

This book review presents Margaret Larkin’s work, Al-Mutanabbī: Voice of the Abbasid Poetic Ideal. The work is a belles-lettres critique literary genre, poetry Al-Mutanabbī, which discusses function in ideal. Larkin's interpretation history, particularly medieval Islamic reveals significance contextualizing poetic activity 10th century court authority, as it disseminated media power and has an ...

One aspects that profoundly Europe was literary richness civilizations. This study focuses on how two 19th century poets conceptualized zenith Abbasid period during which Barmakids held administrative power. By loo...

with the advent of islam in iran, many aspects of iranian culture and civilization were changed. one of these areas was the realm of food and customs which finds its final form from second century to seventh century a.d. it was simultaneous with the consolidation of islam dominance in iran during the abbasid caliphate. these changes were injected into iranian society by different pathways. one ...

the political and social system involved in the limbo between tradition and modernity of the qajar era caused widespread and quick developments in iranian culture, art, and architecture as well as a challenge between tradition and modernity. relatively numerous palaces built in this era were signs of greatness and distinction-seeking of the qajar kings and aristocrats, who embraced all transfor...

Era, composed of a GTPase domain and a K homology domain, is essential for bacterial cell viability. It is required for the maturation of 16S rRNA and assembly of the 30S ribosomal subunit. We showed previously that the protein recognizes nine nucleotides ( ) near the 3' end of 16S rRNA, and that this recognition stimulates GTP-hydrolyzing activity of Era. In all three kingdoms of life, the seq...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Donor right hepatectomy (DRH) was developed by master liver surgeons and has been applied in many liver transplant centers as the mainstay for adult living donor liver transplantation. It is a major and complex surgical operation performed on living liver donors for the benefit of liver recipients. The donors deserve the lowest though inevitable morbidity and mortality. In ...

LIM domain only 4 (LMO4), a member of the LIM-only family of transcriptional coregulatory proteins, consists of two LIM protein-protein interaction domains that enable it to function as a linker protein in multiprotein complexes. Here, we have identified estrogen receptor A (ERA) and its corepressor, metastasis tumor antigen 1 (MTA1), as two novel binding partners of LMO4. Interestingly, LMO4 e...
