Digestion and Assimilation of Proline - containing Peptides by Rat Intestinal

Two intestinal brush border membrane carboxypeptidases were found to participate in the sequential digestion of proline-containing peptides representing a novel mechanism of hydrolysis from the COOH terminus. NH2-blocked prolyl tripeptides were rapidly hydrolyzed by either brush border membrane angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE, dipeptidyl carboxypeptidase, E.C. 3.4.15.1) or carboxypeptidase P...

Observation ofD D Oscillations

We report a measurement of the time-dependent ratio of D ! Kþ to D ! K þ decay rates in D þ-tagged events using 1:0 fb 1 of integrated luminosity recorded by the LHCb experiment. We measure the mixing parameters x02 1⁄4 ð 0:9 1:3Þ 10 , y0 1⁄4 ð7:2 2:4Þ 10 , and the ratio of doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed to Cabibbo-favored decay rates RD 1⁄4 ð3:52 0:15Þ 10 , where the uncertainties include statistic...

Use of Physiological Parameters for Screening Drought Tolerant Barley Genotypes

With the aim of understanding and identifying the traits which can be used as the suitable criteria for quick screening of the water deficit tolerant barley genotypes, an experiment based on randomized complete blocks design with three replications was conducted during two years to evaluate the biochemical responses of 20 barley genotypes to full irrigation and terminal water stress in the fie...

screening and characterization of proline dehydrogenase flavoenzyme producing pseudomonas entomophila

background and objectives: proline dehydrogenase (prodh; 1.5.99.8) plays an important role in specific determination of plasma proline level in biosensor and diagnostic kits. the goal of this research was to isolate and characterize prodh enzyme from iranian soil microorganisms. materials and methods : screening of l-proline degradative enzymes from soil samples was carried out employing enrich...
