The concept of school sport on which we are basing our experience is set in the Historical Territory of Bizkaia (Basque Country, Spain) and this is regulated by Bizkaia’s Diputación Foral (Provincial Council), governed by the regional regulations of the Basque Government. This government takes the view that School Sport covers sport activities at teaching centres outside actual school teaching ...

A prevailing model for virus membrane fusion proteins has been that the hydrophobic fusion peptide is hidden in the prefusion conformation, becomes exposed once the fusion reaction is triggered, and then either inserts into target membranes or is rapidly inactivated. This model is in general agreement with the structure and mechanism of class I fusion proteins, such as the influenza virus hemag...

Two distinct types of cDNA clones encoding for the pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) E1 beta subunit were isolated from a human liver lambda gt11 cDNA library and characterized. These cDNA clones have identical nucleotide sequences for PDH E1 beta protein coding region but differ in their lengths and in the sequences of their 3'-untranslated regions. The smaller cDNA had an unusual polyadenylation s...

A media consisting of isatin-Schiff bases and its inclusion complexes with β-cyclodextrine was developed to maximize the production of antibiotics Hexaene H-85 and azalomycine B by Streptomyces hygroscopicus CH-7. The media with β-cyclodextrine inclusion complex of isatin-3-thiosemicarbazone resulted in the maximum antibiotics concentration of 493 μg/cm for Hexaene H-85 and 191 μg/cm for azalom...

Alphaviruses are small enveloped RNA viruses that include important emerging human pathogens, such as chikungunya virus (CHIKV). These viruses infect cells via a low-pH-triggered membrane fusion reaction, making this step a potential target for antiviral therapies. The E1 fusion protein inserts into the target membrane, trimerizes, and refolds to a hairpin-like conformation in which the combina...

A comparison of estrone (E1), 17beta-estradiol (E2), and 17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE2) removal at a coastal enhanced primary and inland advanced sewage treatment plant (STP) is reported. The average concentration of estrogens in the raw sewage is similar to that reported in other studies. The sequential batch reactor at the advanced STP removed on average 85% of the incoming E1 and 96% of the ...

SUMO activating enzyme 1 (SUMO E1) is responsible for the activation of SUMO in the first step of the sumoylation cascade. SUMO E1 is linked to many human diseases including cancer, thus making it a potential therapeutic target. There are few reported SUMO E1 inhibitors including several natural products. To identify small molecule inhibitors of SUMO E1 with better drug-like properties for pote...

The beneficial effect of dietary soy food intake, especially for women diagnosed with breast cancer, is controversial, as in vitro data has shown that the soy isoflavones genistein and daidzein may even stimulate the proliferation of estrogen-receptor alpha positive (ERα+) breast cancer cells at low concentrations. As genistein and daidzein are known to inhibit key enzymes in the steroid metabo...
