glutathione s-transferases (gsts) are widespread in fasciola. hepatica parasite and sheep liver tissue. study of gsts inhibition assays in f. hepatica and sheep liver tissue are a priority of chemotherapeutic targets in parasitic liver diseases including human fascioliasis in iran. in this research, the whole extract of f. hepatica and sheep liver tissues were purified and eluted for sodium dod...

This study showed that the antigenicity of a malarial epitope increased with the length of the epitope when inserted at positions aa26 (amino acid position 26) and aa196, but not at aa213, of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa major outer membrane protein OprF (326 amino acids). Immunization studies showed that a 19-aa epitope was significantly more immunogenic than a 7-aa epitope when inserted at aa26...

It has been found that the bacterial endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides, LPSs) contain some amino acids and glycine is the most abundant amino acid in the polysaccharide core preparations of LPSs of gram-negative bacteria. Until now nothing was known about the mechanism of amino acid incorporation into the lipopolysaccharide core. We found that one out of three glycyl-tRNAs(Gly) from Escherichia c...

INTRODUCTION Das Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war es, Blutgerinnungsprofile, biochemische und hämatologische Parameter bei Kühen mit unterschiedlichen Schweregraden der Leberverfettung zu untersuchen. Der Schweregrad der Leberverfettung wurde mittels histologischer Untersuchung von Leberbiopsien ermittelt. Fünfzig Kühe, die wegen linksseitiger Labmagenverlagerung überwiesen wurden und verschied...

Two new Delta and Sigma glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) in the Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae), were characterized and transcription profiles described. The deduced amino acid sequences for the two M. destructor Delta GSTs (MdesGST-1 and MdesGST-3) showed high similarity with other insect Delta GSTs including the conserved catalytic serine residue. The deduced amino...

The catalytic site of most enzymes can efficiently handle only one substrate. In contrast, the ribosome is capable of polymerizing at a similar rate at least 20 different kinds of amino acids from aminoacyl-tRNA carriers while using just one catalytic site, the peptidyl-transferase center (PTC). An induced-fit mechanism has been uncovered in the PTC, but a possible connection between this mecha...
