Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is among the world's deadliest cancers. Multiple studies demonstrated that PDAC frequently characterized by presence of Kirsten Rat Sarcoma (KRAS) G12D, G12V, and G12R protein mutants. The mutants are potential immunotherapy targets due to their as cancer-specific neoantigens. KRAS G12V contain vaccine-immunogenic epitopes. epitopes were presented at majo...

Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite capable of infecting humans and animals. Surface antigen glycoproteins, SAG2C, -2D, -2X, and -2Y, are expressed on the surface of bradyzoites. These antigens have been shown to protect bradyzoites against immune responses during chronic infections. We studied structures of SAG2C, -2D, -2X, and -2Y proteins using bioinformatics methods. The protein seque...

The aim of this study was to use comparative modeling to predict the three-dimensional structure of the CHAP(K) protein (cysteine, histidine-dependent amidohydrolase/peptidase domain of the LysK endolysin, derived from bacteriophage K). Iterative PSI-BLAST searches against the Protein Data Bank (PDB) and nonredundant (nr) databases were used to populate a multiple alignment for analysis using t...

BACKGROUND Osteopontin (Eta, secreted sialoprotein 1, opn) is secreted from different cell types including cancer cells. Three splice variant forms namely osteopontin-a, osteopontin-b and osteopontin-c have been identified. The main astonishing feature is that osteopontin-c is found to be elevated in almost all types of cancer cells. This was the vital point to consider it for sequence analysis...

Introduction: The Rubella virus has a worldwide occurrence and congenital syndromes are widely recognized as an emerging infection in several parts of the world. Miscarriage, perinatal mortality, stillbirth can develop pregnancy during first trimester. most frequent techniques for laboratory diagnosis IgM IgG-based serological detection methods. Such viral bacterial pathogen emphasizes developm...

Physiologic studies of Lactobacillus species show that some species cannot synthesize folate de novo, which is required for growth. Folate plays a critical role in regulating the amount of tetrahydrofolate in the cell that is utilized for DNA replication, and proliferation of the erythropoietic system. We recently sequenced the genome of Lactobacillus pentosus KCA1, isolated from a Nigerian sub...
