Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of anthrax in humans, livestock, and wildlife, exists a community with hundreds other species bacteria environment. Work on genetics these communities has shown that B. anthracis shares high percentage chromosomal genes both thuringiensis cereus, phenotypic differences among can result from extra-chromosomal DNA form plasmids. We developed simple hypothet...

Molecular simulations were carried out to elucidate the influence of structural heterogeneity and of the presence of extra-framework cations and water molecules on the adsorption of methane in Engelhard titanosilicates, ETS-10 and ETS-4. The simulations employed three different modeling approaches, (i) with fixed cations and water at their single crystal positions, (ii) with fixed cations and w...

Background and objectives: Otostegia persica (Burm.) Boiss. is an endemic plant of Iran with various applications in traditional medicine which contains of several antioxidant constituents. This research was aimed to investigate the effect of hydroalcoholic extract from O. persica aerial parts in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) using hydrogen p...

background: protein-energy malnutrition (pem) is a common complication in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease (ckd). components incorporated in the regulation of appetite and body composition appear to be of the focus in renal insufficiency and may influence the ckd-associated pem. the purpose of this study was to investigate plasma levels of appetite-regulating hormones and their co...

BACKGROUND In a previous paper, we reported the accomplishment of a cold gene-expression system for the recombinant secretion of heterologous proteins in Pseudoalteromonas haloplanktis TAC125. This system makes use of the psychrophilic alpha-amylase from P. haloplanktis TAB23 as secretion carrier, and allows an effective extra-cellular addressing of recombinant proteins. However, Pseudoalteromo...
