abstract

prochymosin is one of the most important aspartic proteinases used as a milk-clotting enzyme in cheese production. in the present investigation we report sequence of cdna encoding goat ( capra hircus ) preprochymosin and compare its nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences with sequences of other ruminants preprochymosin. as bovine prochymosin, the caprine prochymosin cdna encodes 365 amino acids with a prosegment of 42 amino acids and the mature goat chymosin begins with glycine. the preprochymosin nucleotide sequence reported in this study differs from other reported goat sequence (ay389343) in three nucleotides, two of which alter the amino acids at positions 19p and 139.

Prenatal Development of Pelvic Urethra in Goat (Capra hircus)

The study was conducted on the embryo/foeti of goat from 0-150 days of gestation, divided into group I (0-30 days), group II (31-60 days), group III (61-90 days), group IV (91-120 days) and group V (121-150 days of gestation). In group I whole embryo was processed and serial sections were cut whereas, in rest of the groups, pelvic urethra was dissected out and the tissues from the representativ...

Postnatal Development of Testis in Gaddi Goat (Capra hircus)

A study was conducted on the testicles of 30 male Gaddi goats, divided into 3 groups viz; prepubertal (0 day to 18 months), pubertal (<18 months to >5 yrs) and postpubertal (>5 yrs) ages. The study revealed that the testis was covered by fibroserous tunica albuginia having outer fibrous layer and inner vascular layer with smooth muscle fibers at birth. The tunica albuginia continuously grew in ...

Regional differences in aorta of goat (capra hircus).

Regional differences in the aortic wall are important in explaining the physicomechanical properties and disease distribution in this artery. The goat is a suitable model for studying cardiovascular disease, but the regional features of its aorta are scarcely reported. The purpose of the study was therefore to describe the regional differences in the wall of its aorta. Sixteen healthy adult mal...

Ultrastructure of the Hepatic Sinusoid of the Goat Capra Hircus

I t is generally agreed that the hepatic sinusoidal lining is discontinuous and that no basement membrane as such exists in the livers of rats (7-9, 14-16, 19, 20, 22), mice (5, 10, 11, 21), dogs (16), rabbits (1, 18), pig embryos (1), frogs (8), developed chick embryos (12), and humans (4, 6, 16). However, several investigators have called attention to patches of "basement membranel ike" mater...
