These enzymes (Grav, 1967) are responsible for the synthesis of the monomeric precursors of DNA, namely dATP, dCTP, dGTP and dTTP. Fluctuations in the activities of some of the enzymes and in the intracellular deoxyribonucleotide pools are known to occur throughout the cell cycle (Grav, 1967; Nordenskjold et al., 1970; Adams et al., 1971 ; Skoog & Nordenskjold, 1971). Moreover, there is inducti...

Cellulolytic complex are enzymes capable of hydrolyzing cellulose. Due to rapid growth in population and industrialization, most countries are required to produce more fuel. Production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is very challenging due to environmental pollution by fossil fuels. Cellulases play a significant role in biotechnological processes. The cost of production of cellulase...

Receptor affinity and drug delivery to the receptor sites could be determinant factors for the increased bronchial responsiveness seen in asthma. Competitive antagonism blockade which is measured as dose ratio-l (DR-I) depends only on these two factors. Therefore, in this study we have examined histamine HI blockade by chlorpheniramine on isolated tracheal chains of asthmatic compared to co...

24 The primary center of serotonin (5-HT) projections to the forebrain is the 25 dorsal raphe nucleus (DR), a region known for its role in the limbic stress 26 response. The ventromedial subregion of the DR (vmDR) has the highest density 27 of 5-HT neurons and is the major target in experiments that involve the DR. 28 However, studies have demonstrated that a variety of stressors induce activat...
