The in-situ conformations of peptide layers formed from the adsorption of two different synthetic 15-mer peptides at the hydrophilic silicon oxide/aqueous solution interface have been determined using neutron reflectivity (NR). The first peptide is based on the native sequence of a protein-binding domain within a heteromeric transcriptional activator, HAP2, identified from yeast Saccharomyces c...

this study surveys on the effects of l-lysine and methionon amino acids on growth performance, survival rate and body composition of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss). fish with initial average weight 105.23 +  6.33 g in 5 treatments fed with different levels of lysine (1 and 3 %) and methionine ( 1 and 2%) for 8 weeks. the results showed that the treatment which fed 2 % methionine had the be...

an experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary crude protein (cp) and lysine levels on performance and nitrogen excretion in broiler chickens. four hundred twenty 7-day old chickens from ross 308 strain were randomly allotted to 6 dietary treatments with 5 replicates of 14 chicks each (7 male and 7 female chicks). the cp levels were 17, 18, and 20 percent and lysine levels were ...

the kinetics of mn(vii) oxidation of lysine in moderately sulfuric acid solutions was studiedspectrophotometrically in the presence and absence of mn(ii) as catalyst. the reaction was arrangedto be under pseudo first-order condition with respect to mn(vii). the results showed that the pseudofirst-order rate constant increases with increasing [h2so4], [(mn)ii], and [lysine]. the dependence ofthe...

Positively charged Zeta Plus filters were used to concentrate enteroviruses from 19 liters of effluent from activated sludge units. Neither the addition of salts nor the acidification of the effluent was required for adsorption of viruses to the filters. Viruses adsorbed to the filters were eluted by treating the filters with a solution of 4 M urea buffered at pH 9 with 0.05 M lysine. Eluted vi...

Minireview focused on poly(ε-lysine) and its derivatives via ring-opening polymerization of biorenewable cyclic lysine.

production of lysine by corynebacterium glutamicum (ptcc 1532) from different agricultural by-products (molasses and pulpy waste date) was compared to glucose as raw materials. for this purpose, ammonium sulphate was selected as a constant nitrogen source. the effect of different nitrogen sources was also investigated with glucose as a constant carbon source. the production of l-lysine was exam...

Lysine biosynthesis in plants occurs via the diaminopimelate pathway. The first committed and rate-limiting step of this pathway is catalysed by dihydrodipicolinate synthase (DHDPS), which allosterically regulated end product, l-lysine (lysine). Given that lysine a common nutritionally limiting amino acid cereal crops, there has been much interest probing regulation DHDPS. Interestingly, knocko...
