We have investigated how the programme of protein synthesis is altered in response to a loss of calcium homoeostasis in Cos-7 cells using a differential proteome mapping approach. Exposure of the cells to the calcium ionophore A23187 or thapsigargin, or alternatively, expression of a viral glycoprotein reported to deplete intracellular calcium stores, resulted in the up-regulated expression of ...

the effect of different salinity levels (1.7, 5, 10, 15 and 20 ds.m-1) on yield and forage quality of two millet cultivars (nutrifeed and bastan) was investigated in this experiment. a factorial test based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted during 2010-11 growing season. the results showed that with increase in salinity, dry matter yield decreased. the hig...
