Background: Lipase enzymes are of great importance in various industries. Currently, extensive efforts have been focused on exploring new lipase producer microorganism as well as genetic and protein engineering of available lipases to improve their functional features. Methods: For screening lipase-producing lactobacilli, isolated strains were inoculated onto tributyrin agar plates. Molecular ...

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease in human and animals. Brucella melitensis is one of the most pathogenic species of Brucella in goat and sheep. Omp31 is an outer membrane protein of Brucella that acts as an immunogenic protein. Cytokines are glycoproteins with low molecular weight that play the role of an immune adjuvant and regulate immune responses. Interleukin-2 is one of the most important...

Background: Expression of virus coat protein (CP) in Escherichia coli often leads to production of partially folded aggregated proteins which are called inclusion bodies. Grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) is one of the most serious and widespread grapevine virus diseases around the world and in Iran.Objective: The main objective of this study was to find a s...

in this study, 120 aegilops crassa (mmdd genome) accessions from iran were evaluated for high molecular weight proteins. based on sds-page analysis, 17 bands were selected and mass spectrometry was used for protein identification. among 17 bands selected for maldi-tof-tof-ms analyzing, only 4 bands were identified as high molecular weight glutenin subunit similar to aegilops ventricosa and trit...

objective: the incidence of breast cancer is approximately one million which makes this cancer one of the most common among women worldwide. breast cancer comprises 7% of the total death rate caused by cancers. several strategies that use tumor-associated antigen (taa) vaccination and early detection of breast cancer are clinically being developed. breast cancer is caused by increased over expr...
