The exact role of the central acidic domain of Mdm2 in p53 degradation remains unclear. We therefore performed a systematic and comprehensive analysis of the acidic domain using a series of short deletions and found that only a minor part of the domain was indispensable for Mdm2-mediated p53 ubiquitylation. Moreover, we identified a short stretch of acidic amino acids required for p53 degradati...

a simple and mild method for tetrahydropyranylation of alcohols is reported at room temperature using a catalytic amount of 3-methylimidazolinium hydrogensulfate([hmim]hso4) as a green, efficient and reusable catalyst. using solvent-free conditions, non-toxic and inexpensive materials, modest and clean work-up, short reaction times and high yields of the products are the advantages of this method.

biosorption of acidic dyes using the live fern azolla filliculoides was studied in a discontinuous system. dye parameters, dye initial concentration and contact time were studied in temperature range of 25-30 ?c and ph=7. it was shown that increasing the 23initial concentration of dye and its contact time resulted in decreasing the dye taking quantity by the absorbent. also, type of dye has an ...

a variety of alcohols readily add to 3,4-dihydro-2h-pyran under solvent free conditions in the presence of catalytic amount of acidic ionic liquid [et3n(ch2)4so3h][ots] to afford the corresponding tetrahydropyranyl ethers in good to excellent yields at room temperature. the use of this procedure allows easy separation of the desired products from ionic liquid and recycling the ionic liquid. som...

background: induced pluripotent stem cells (ipscs) can be obtained from autologous cells for therapeutic purposes. so, far, many studies have been done to produce induced pluripotent cells by transferring specific pluripotency genes using different methods. in this study, pluripotency gene expression induced by external stresses was assessed in cord blood mononuclear cells. methods: in this exp...

alzheimer’s disease (ad) is a neurodegenerative disease that was characterized with deposit of beta amyloid (aβ) aggregate in senile plaque. oxidative damage to neurons and loss of cholinergic neurons in forebrain region are observed in this disease. melissa officinalis is a medicinal plant from lamiaceae family, used traditionally in the treatment of cognitive disorders. it has cholinomimetic ...
