background: the mitogen-activated protein kinase (mapk) pathway is one of the major signaling pathways that transmit intracellular signals initiated by extracellular stimuli to the nucleus. the stress-activated protein kinase (sapk)/c-jun nh2-terminal kinase is a subfamily of map kinases implicated in cytokine and stress responses. objective: in this study, we have examined total and phosphoryl...

hereditary inclusion body myopathy (hibm) is an adult-onset hereditary myopathy, usually with distal onset and quadriceps sparing. this myopathy is autosomal recessive and associated to upd-n-acetylglucosamine-2-epimerase/n-acetylmannosamine kinase (gne) gene mutations. in this study, we report a novel gne homozygous point mutation c.1834t>g that results in amino acid substitution of cysteine 6...

the hydrophobic proteins of plant plasma membrane still remain largely unknown.  for example in the arabidopsis genome, receptor-like kinases (rlks) are plasma membrane proteins, functioning as the primary receptors in the signaling of stress conditions, hormones and the presence of pathogens form a diverse family of over 610 genes. a limited number of these proteins have appeard in protein pro...

The aim of the present study was todeterminecharacteristics of Rheb gene and protein in Raini Cashmere goat. Comparative analyses of the nucleotide sequences were performed. Open reading frames (ORFs), theoretical molecular weights of deduced polypeptides, the protein isoelectric point, protein characteristics and three-dimensional structures was predicted using online standard softwares. The f...

introduction: increased oxidative stress is widely accepted to be a factor in the development and progression of alzheimer’s disease. triazine derivatives possess a wide range of pharmacological activities including anti-oxidative and anti-in.ammatory actions. in this study, we aimed to investigate the possible protective effect of 3-thioethyl-5,6-dimethoxyphenyl-1,2,4-triazine (tedmt) on h2o2-...
