In this study, the feasibility of cruxrhodopsin (CR) production as a multifunctional nanoparticle was investigated and optimized by Halorculasp. IRU1, a novel halophile Archaea isolated from Urmia Lake, Iran in batch experiments. In this case, Taguchi method was used for effect measurement of three important factors (petrochemical wastewater, yeast extract and KH2PO4) on CR production. Results ...

Transforming growth factor betas are multifunctional polypeptides in the cytokine superfamily. They have a growth inhibitory role on hemopoietic progenitor cells in semisolid colony assay as well as in long-term bone-marrow culture. TGF - β2 represses stromal cells, stem cell factor gene transcription, and decreases the stability of c-kit transcripts in hemopoietic cells. TGF-β also modulat...
