EBNA-3A, -3B, and -3C are three latent infection nuclear proteins important for Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-induced B-cell immortalization and the immune response to EBV infection. All three are hypothesized to function as transcriptional transactivators, but little is known about their precise mechanism of action or their role in EBV pathogenesis. We have cloned and studied the three EBNA-3 homol...

DIF: Direct immunofluorescence LCV: Leukocytoclastic vasculitis TRs: Transplant recipients INTRODUCTION Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) is a smallvessel vasculitis that is usually limited to the skin but may cause systemic small-vessel disease. LCV commonly presents with petechiae or palpable purpuric papules or plaques that may coalesce, ulcerate, or form hemorrhagic bullae (Fig 1). The path...

Association Analysis for Important Quantitative and Morphological Traits in Cultivars Advanced Lines of Soybean (Glycine max (L.)) using Microsatellite Markers

The RFC (reduced folate carrier) is the principal mechanism by which folates and clinically used antifolates are delivered to mammalian cells. hRFC (human RFC) is subject to complex transcriptional controls and exists as homo-oligomer. To explore the post-transcriptional regulation of hRFC by exogenous folates, hRFC-null HeLa cells were stably transfected with hRFC under control of a constituti...

Objective: Glycine max (soybean) is a legume (Fabaceae) native to East Asia. Glycine max seeds are a powerful stimulant of immune system, used to decrease menopause symptoms, estrogen, treat certain types of cancers including that of the breast, lungs, prostate. It is also used for treating diabetes, liver and kidney disorders. The study aimed to investigate the effect of germinated Glycine max...

In order to investigate the effect of rhizobium bacteria, mycorrhiza fungi and foliar application of urea on qualitative and quantitative traits of soybean an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with four replications. The experiment included six treatments as: Control (C), Rhizobium bacteria (R), Rhizobium bacteria + Mycorrhiza fungi (R+M), Rhizobium bacteria + F...

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human lymphocryptovirus that is associated with several malignancies. Elevated EBV DNA in the blood is observed in transplant recipients prior to, and at the time of post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease; thus, a vaccine that either prevents EBV infection or lowers the viral load might reduce certain EBV malignancies. Two major approaches have been suggested ...
