Background: Root to shoot connection and transfer of information seems to be taken place mostly via the transmissions of signal molecules, secondary metabolites, amino acids, hormones and proteins, through xylem sap. Examination of earlier reports is indicative of relatively high levels of conservation in xylem sap protein compositions. Apparently these protein molecules are be...

conclusions over-expression of the synthetic cpc/β protein in the bacterial system (escherichia coli bl-21) showed that e. coli can be used as a basis for further research to produce this desired protein in large quantities. results the sds-page analysis and dot blotting confirmed the production of recombinant c-pc/β in the bacterial expression system. over-expression of cpcb gene was optimized...

• Recessive mutations are due to loss-of-function by the protein product. • Dominant mutations result from a gain-of-function. • Testing whether a gene is essential requires a null mutation (one that completely eliminates its function). • Silent mutations have no effect, either because the base change does not change the sequence or amount of protein, or because the change in protein sequence h...

the current challenges in the management of esophageal cancer are to obtain a better understanding of underlying molecular alterations to provide new treatment options. we studied the p53 and bcl-2 protein expression in esophageal carcinomas to correlate molecular alterations with clinicopathological findings. tissue samples of 37 patients with advanced esophageal carcinoma were analyzed by imm...

Earthworms possess antioxidant, antibacterial, antitumor, and hemolytic properties. To recognize the molecules responsible for various biological activities of earthworm’s coelomic fluid, a detailed knowledge about its protein contents is required. The aim of this study was to characterize the proteins present within the coelomic fluid of Eisenia foetida earthworm. Polyacrylamide-gel-elec...

The high mobility group (HMG) of nonhistone proteins have been investigated using two high performance liquid chromatographic techniques (HPLC). Reversed-phase HPLC under conditions of 50 mM triethylamine adjusted to pH 2.2 with phosphoric acid (solvent A) and 95% acetonitrile in water (solvent B) was used to separate proteins primarily on the basis of differences in the overall hydrophobi...
