Photocatalytic Removal of Escherichia Coli by ZnO Activated by Ultraviolet-C Light from Aqueous Solution
Abstract: Background and objectives: There is a great interest in photocatalytic oxidation of contaminants, using ZnO, in recent years. The main objective of this research was to study photocatalytic disinfection of E. coli bacteria as water microbial pollution index, using nano particles of ZnO and a UV lamp in a batch reactor. Material and Methods: In this study, the contaminated water sample...
متن کاملActivation of Raf-1 signaling by protein kinase C through a mechanism involving Raf kinase inhibitory protein.
Protein kinase C (PKC) regulates activation of the Raf-1 signaling cascade by growth factors, but the mechanism by which this occurs has not been elucidated. Here we report that one mechanism involves dissociation of Raf kinase inhibitory protein (RKIP) from Raf-1. Classic and atypical but not novel PKC isoforms phosphorylate RKIP at serine 153 (Ser-153). RKIP Ser-153 phosphorylation by PKC eit...
متن کاملProtein kinase C mediated Raf-1/extracellular-regulated kinase activation by daunorubicin
In light of the emerging concept of a protective function of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway under stress conditions, we investigated the influence of the anthracycline daunorubicin (DNR) on MAPK signaling and its possible contribution to DNR-induced cytotoxicity. We show that DNR increased phosphorylation of extracellular-regulated kinases (ERKs) and stimulated activities o...
متن کاملRaf kinase inhibitory protein regulates Raf-1 but not B-Raf kinase activation.
Raf kinase inhibitory protein (RKIP; also known as phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein or PEBP) is a modulator of the Raf/MAPK signaling cascade and a suppressor of metastatic cancer. Here, we show that RKIP inhibits MAPK by regulating Raf-1 activation; specifically, RKIP acts subsequent to Raf-1 membrane recruitment, prevents association of Raf-1 and p21-activated kinase (PAK), and blocks...
متن کاملCeramide-binding and activation defines protein kinase c-Raf as a ceramide-activated protein kinase.
Interleukin 1 is the prototype of an inflammatory cytokine, and evidence suggests that it uses the sphingomyelin pathway and ceramide production to trigger mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation and subsequent gene expression required for acute inflammatory processes. To identify downstream signaling targets of ceramide, a radioiodinated photoaffinity labeling analog of ceramide ([1...
