purification and characterization of antiviral protein from silkworm fecal matter

antiviral proteins (avp), present in silkworm fecal matter, show activity against nuclear polyhedrosis virus (npv) in vitro and in vivo. the extract of silkworm fecal matter prepared in phosphate buffer solution of ph 7.5 was subjected to 50% solid ammonium sulfate precipitation to enrich avp, then which was dialyzed. the dialysate was applied to the column containing silica gel-g, the column e...

PURIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF GLUE LIKE SERICIN PROTEIN FROM A WILD SILKWORM Antheraea assamensis Helfer

Sericin is a hot water soluble glycoprotein and has been partially characterized in the domesticated silkworm Bombyx mori. Contrary to this very little information is available about the sericin of non mulberry silkworms. Sericin is generally a waste product during degumming. Recent advancement in silkworm research has revealed the use of sericin of B. mori as protein based biomaterial involvin...

synthesis and characterization of some macrocyclic schiff bases

ماکروسیکلهای شیف باز از اهمیت زیادی در شیمی آلی و دارویی برخوردار می باشند. این ماکروسیکلها با دارابودن گروه های مناسب در مکانهای مناسب می توانند فلزاتی مثل مس، نیکل و ... را در حفره های خود به دام انداخته، کمپلکسهای پایدار تولید نمایند. در این پایان نامه ابتدا یک دی آلدئید آروماتیک از گلیسیرین تهیه می شود و در مرحله بعدی واکنش با دی آمینهای آروماتیک و یا آلیفاتیک در رقتهای بسیار زیاد منجر به ت...

Purification and Functional Characterization of a Protein: Bombyx mori Human Growth Hormone Like Protein in Silkworm Pupa

Human growth hormone (hGH) is a peptide hormone secreted by eosinophils of the human anterior pituitary, and a regulatory factor for a variety of metabolic pathways. A 30-kD protein from the pupa stage of silkworm was detected by Western blotting and confirmed by immunoprecipitation based on its ability to bind to anti-hGH antibody. This protein, named BmhGH-like protein, was purified from fres...

Purification and partial characterization of another form of the antiviral protein from the seeds of Phytolacca americana L. (pokeweed).

1. The pokeweed antiviral protein, previously identified in two forms (PAP and PAP II) in the leaves of Phytolacca americana (pokeweed) [Obrig. Irvin & Hardesty (1973) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 155, 278-289; Irvin, Kelly & Robertus (1980) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 200, 418-425] is a protein that prevents replication of several viruses and inactivates ribosomes, thus inhibiting protein synthesis. 2....
