Species and tissue-specific isozymes of phosphorylase display differences in regulatory properties consistent with their distinct roles in particular organisms and tissues. In this review, we compare crystallographic structures of regulated and unregulated phosphorylases, including maltodextrin phosphorylase (MalP) from Escherichia coli, glycogen phosphorylase from yeast, and mammalian isozymes...

a total of 162 species (s) of rotifera belonging to 40 genera and 20 families examined from loktak lake, an important floodplain lake of northeast india (nei), is one of the richest assemblages of the taxon known from the indian sub-region. it merits biodiversity value as ~40.0% and ~62.0% of species recorded from india and nei, respectively. one species is new to india, 23 species are new to m...

Objective(s): Long term consumption of ethanol may induce damage to many organs. Ethanol induces its noxious effects through reactive oxygen species production, and lipid peroxidation and apoptosis induction in different tissues and cell types. Previous experiments have indicated the antioxidant characteristics of thymoquinone, the active constituent of Nigella sativa fixed oil, against biologi...

In the present investigation, goat β-defensin (GBD) expression in different tissues of Osmanabadi was studied. Goat tongue epithelia had highest level GBD expression, followed by reticulum, rumen, omasum, kidney, spleen, liver and uterus. Minimal observed tracheal tissue. To our knowledge, this is first study to report rumen.

in the present study, fungal contaminations of trout feed were examined with special attention of potentially mycotoxigenic fungi. the feed samples were obtained from a factory and 6 farms. sampling was done on final pellets and their ingredients including wheat, wheat flour, soya, fish powder, gluten and starch in the factory and in the farm according to the instruction of institute of standar...

67Gallium-bleomycin complex (67Ga-BLM) was prepared using Thakour method. Radio-thin-layer-chromatography of prepared complex showed A2 and B2 radiopeaks with Rf at 0.7 and 0.4 respectively with a purity of above % 95. Tissue uptake of 67Ga-BLM and 67GaCl3 in twelve tissues including tumor, blood, liver, lung, spleen, muscle, skin, heart, kidney, colon, colon content ,bladder and the tota...

In this study, we evaluated the bioaccumulation of mercury in zebrafish (Danio rerio) exposed to mercury-contaminated food for 21 days and depuration a subsequent post-exposure period 28 days. Four tissues (muscle, liver, gills, skin) were analyzed content. Overall, data indicated that Hg accumulation liver is faster than other tissues. Furthermore, tissue with highest rate per day (0.021 µg g−...
