An experiment was conducted to evaluate the effect of different levels of germinated barley (GB) on live performance and carcass traits in broiler chickens. The experiment lasted for 5 weeks starting from 7 days of age and ending at 42 days of age. Chicks (Ross 308) were fed six dietary treatments including a corn–soy diet (corn diet), a barley–soy diet (barley diet), a barley diet plus enzymes...

The clinical usefulness of morphine for treatment of chronic pain is limited by development of tolerance. So many authors have proposed the co-administration of other drugs. This study was performed to evaluate the role of gabapentin on analgesic effect of morphine. Four groups of male rats (220-250 g) were examined for time latency using tail flick test: control, morphine (M), gabapentin (GB),...

Human cytomegalovirus glycoprotein B (gB) plays a role in the fusion of the virion envelope with the host cell membrane and in syncytium formation in infected cells. Hydrophobic sequences at the carboxyl terminus, amino acids (aa) 714 to 771, anchor gB in the lipid bilayer, but the unusual length of this domain suggests that it may serve another role in gB structure. To explore the function(s) ...

Introduction: Glycoprotein B (gB) is the major antigen for induction of humoral responses against human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) making it an attractive candidate for immune prophylaxis. In the present study, the humoral immune response of BALB/c mice to a truncated HCMV gB protein fused with GFP was evaluated. Methods: The truncated gB coding sequence was synthesized and cloned in pEGFPN1 eukary...

logical form or covert syntax is a syntactic level introduced in recent generative approaches. using the ideas of first-order predicate logic, it interprets the strings whose elements cannot move in s–structure, because an element moves if it does not acquire its necessary scope. but unlike the predicate logic, logical form is based on syntactic principles and rules. therefore, logical form is ...

The varicella-zoster virus (VZV) glycoprotein B (gB) is a major viral antigen which elicits immunity and neutralizing antibodies. In this study, the genomic map position and DNA sequence of a simian varicella virus (SVV) homologue of the VZV gB gene was identified and the transcript analysed. A 32P-labelled VZV gB DNA probe hybridized to a subclone of the SVV BamHI B restriction endonuclease fr...

Glycoprotein B (gB) is the conserved herpesvirus fusion protein, and it is required for the entry of herpesviruses. The structure of the postfusion conformation of gB has been solved for several herpesviruses; however, the gB prefusion crystal structure and the details of how the protein refolds from a prefusion to a postfusion form to mediate fusion have not been determined. Using structure-ba...
