immune genes of the major histocompatibility complex (mhc) are among the most polymorphic genes in the vertebrate genome. due to their polymorphic nature, they are often used to assess the adaptive genetic variability of natural populations. this study describes the first molecular characterization of 13 partial mhc class iib sequences from three european ranid frogs.  the utility of previously...

because of participation in many aspects of human life, and due to oxidation-sensitive characteristics of dopamine (da) and arachidonoyl dopamine (aa-da), the necessity of biocompatible carrier to keep them against oxidation is of importance. in this work, we explored the putative binding sites of da and aa-da to -lactoglobulin (blg) as potent carrier. docking results identified the binding si...

Interference with microtubule polymerization results in cell cycle arrest leading to cell death. Colchicine is a well-known microtubule polymerization inhibitor which does so by binding to a specific site on tubulin. A set of 3',4'-bis (substituted phenyl)-4'H-spiro[indene-2,5'-isoxazol]-1(3H)-one derivatives with known antiproliferative activities were evaluated for their tubulin binding modes...

mechanism of the binding of lomefloxacin (lmf) with human serum albumin has been studied at physiological ph (7.4) using fluorescence spectroscopic technique. lmf is a third-generation fluoroquinolone antibiotic that exhibits striking potency against a broad spectrum of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria through inhibition of dna gyrase. lomefloxacin is a drug that is excreted in urine an...
