background: in the recent years, there has been an increasing interest in secretory production of recombinant proteins, due to its various advantages compared with intracellular expression. signal peptides play a critical role in prosperous secretion of recombinant proteins. accordingly, different signal peptides have been assessed for their ability to produce secretory proteins by trial-and-er...

Feeding farmed Artemia with yeast heat shock proteins is a novel way to protect them from stress conditions during the culture.  In this study, the effect of feeding with stressed new identified Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain YG3-1 yeasts (containing induced heat shock proteins) on the survival of Artemia in stress conditions, was evaluated. For this purpose, heat shock proteins 82 (Hsps 82) o...

background: taenia multiceps is a cestode parasite with its larval stage(metacestode), coenurus cerebralis , mainly encysts in the central nervous system of sheep and other livestock causing cerebralis coenurosis. since treatment of coenurosis with chemotherapy showed little effect and surgical removal of cysts is not advisable in field conditions, vaccination is useful to control coenurosis. p...

Background: Salinity is a major environmental limiting factor, which affect agricultural production. The two Manilkara seedlings (M. roxburghiana and M. zapota) with high economic importance, could not adapt well to higher soil salinity and little is known about their proteomic mechanisms. Objectives: The mechanisms responsible ...

Background: The aim of this study was to compare the sperm protein profile between oligo- and normozoospermic patients with varicocele. Materials and Methods: Sperm samples of 20 normozoospermic and 20 oligozoospermic patients with varicocele were characterized using two dimensional electrophoresis (group 1 and group 2, respectively). Differences in protein expression were established using gel...
