This experiment aims to investigate the effects of partial replacement fish meal (FM) by soybean (SBM) and/or fermented (FSBM) on growth, serum biochemistry, digestion, antioxidation, immunity, and mTOR signaling pathway juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). Four iso-nitrogen iso-lipid diets were designed fed four groups (152.25 ± 2.96 g) in triplicate for 10 weeks. The G0 diet (control ...

We have investigated the effect of theophylline on the kinetics of the catalytic subunit of protein kinase and related factors in lung tissue. The results show that the point of highest concentration of the C subunit of protein kinase which is active in casein phosphorylation is at 3h of incubation time, but in the presence of 100 Ilg/ InL and 10µg/mL theophylline, this is shifted to I.S an...

M itogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase cascades are a standard player in the signal transduction literature for diverse organisms (1–3). Previous work has shown that specific MAP kinases become activated during plant responses to pathogens, suggesting a role for MAP kinase cascades in disease resistance. However, no function-blocking experiments had demonstrated a causal role until the work of...

Objective(s): The rotavirus nonstructural protein 4 (NSP4) is responsible for the increase in cytoplasmic calcium concentration through a phospholipase C-dependent and phospholipase C-independent pathways in infected cells. It is shown that increasing of intracellular calcium concentration in rotavirus infected cells is associated with the activation of some members of protein kinases family su...

When certain phytopathogenic fungi contact plant surfaces, specialized infection structures (appressoria) are produced that facilitate penetration of the plant external barrier; the cuticle. Recognition of this hydrophobic host surface must be sensed by the fungus, initiating the appropriate signaling pathway or pathways for pathogenic development. Using polymerase chain reaction and primers de...

Mitogen-activated protein kinase 4 (MPK4) interacts with the (Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1) MEKK1/ Mitogenactivated protein kinase kinase 1 (MKK1)/ Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 2 (MKK2) complex to affect its function in plant development or against pathogen attacks. The KEGG (Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes) network analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana reveale...

Enzymes of the eukaryotic protein kinase superfamily catalyze the reversible transfer of the gamma-phosphate from ATP to amino acid side chains of proteins. Protein kinase function can be counteracted by the action of phosphoprotein phosphatases. Phosphorylation status of a protein can have profound effects on its activity and interaction with other proteins. An estimated 1 to 3% of functional ...
