Glycolysis is an essential process for the energy metabolism of living cells and is tightly regulated during the cell cycle. A main regulatory step is centered around the behavior of phosphofructokinase (PFK), which catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) to fructose-1,6-bisphosphate and represents the first irreversible step specific for glycolysis. PFK is ubiquitously expr...

Biochemical pathways which are involved in energy metabolism were examined in the kidney of heat-acclimated hamsters. It was found that heat acclimation caused 47% reduction in glucose-6-phosphatase (G1c-6-Pase) activity and 40% lower rate of gluconeogenesis. No changes were found in the activity of hexokinase, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase, pyruvate kinase, lactic dehydrogenase, or in kidn...

Purpose: To investigate the energy dependence/spectral sensitivity of silicon diodes designed for small-field dosimetry and obtain response factors (RFs) for arbitrary photon spectra using Monte Carlo (MC) simulations.   Methods: The EGSnrc user-code DOSRZnrc was used to calculate the dose deposition in water and in the active volume of a stereotactic diode f...

the thermodynamic functions such as enthalpy (h), gibbs free energy (g) and entropy (s) ofpyrazole was theoretically studied at 5 different temperatures 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45°c by usinggussian o3, software. first, the structural optimization of isolated pyrazole was done in the gas phaseby appling the density functional theory (b3lyp) level with 3-21g, 6-31g and 6-31+g(d) basissets. moreover, v...

abstract the aim of this study was to determine the input–output energy consumption in different levels of tomato production. the data used in the study were obtained from 140 tomato growers in different villages of marand township by using a face to face questionnaire. the results showed that the amount of energy consumed in tomato production was 65.2 gjha-1 which about 51% of this was generat...

the study examined gender analysis of energy use for rice production in north central nigeria using a sample of 60 rice farmers. an analysis of gender relations provides the information on the different conditions men and women face, and the different effects that policies and programs may have on them. simple descriptive statistics were used to analyze the data. energy efficiency and energy pr...
