Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is an important oil seed crop, providing more than 13% of the world's supply of edible oils. An in-depth knowledge of the gene network involved in biosynthesis and accumulation of seed oil is critical for the improvement of B. napus. Using available genomic and transcriptomic resources, we identified 1,750 acyl-lipid metabolism (ALM) genes that are distributed over 19 ...

The mature human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein (Env) trimer is produced by proteolytic cleavage of a precursor and consists of three gp120 exterior and three gp41 transmembrane subunits. The metastable Env complex is induced to undergo conformational changes required for virus entry by the binding of gp120 to the receptors, CD4 and CCR5/CXCR4. An isoleucine-to-proline cha...

variability in morphological traits, phenolic content, and antioxidant activity of 15 populations of iranian ferula species collected from natural habitats in different regions of iran were investigated. total phenolic content (tpc) of fruit extracts varied from 12.77 to 120.72 mg tannic acid per 1g dry weight. total flavonoid of fruits extract varied from 5.45 mg quercetin per 1 g dry weight i...
