Several classes of isozyme characters are recognized including the number of genes that control a given enzyme system, intralocus and interlocus heteropolymer assembly, tissuespecific gene expression, developmental patterns of enzyme expression, and post-translational modification of gene products. All of these characters can be of value in systematic studies although few applications have been...

The ACT STATIS method, a multi-table comparison, was applied to 62 Rosa species to be clustered into four sections (Carolinae, Cinnamomeae, Pimpinellifoliae and Synstylae); the data sets were dealing with morphology (15 criteria), anthocyanin pattern (10 compounds), flavonol heteroside pattern (26 compounds) and superoxide dismutase isozyme (SOD) polymorphism (11 bands). This method appeared ve...

a range of some iranian monofloral honeys were assayed for antibacterial activity with and without hydrogen peroxide which is inactivated by the addition of catalase. i t was found that the high amount of antibacterial activity in honeys was due to a factor other than hydrogen peroxide. the test microorganism staphylococcus aureus, was not inhibited by the acidity or the osmolarity of the honey...

Salmonid fish, as a result of total genome duplication, have two genes, Ldh H and Ldh H’, coding for polypeptides H and H’, respectively, both of which have been shown in their tetrameric forms to be immunologically related to the classical Hq lactate dehydrogenase isozyme of higher vertebrates (BAILEY, G. S., AND WILSON, A. C. (1968) J. Biol. Chem. 243, 5843). The H4 and H’4 isozymes have now ...

Recently, we isolated 3 protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes from rat brain (Huang et al., 1986a). Using isozyme-specific antibodies for immunoblot, we have determined the relative levels of each isozyme in various regions of the rat brain (Huang et al., 1987b). The present paper describes the cellular distributions of PKC isozymes in rat brain as determined by light microscopic immunocytochemistry....

'13Cd NMR of the "3Cd(II)-substituted zinc metalloenzymes, human and bovine erythrocyte carbonic anhydrases, is reported. The high activity isozymes, human erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase, isozyme C (HCAC) and bovine erythrocyte carbonic anhydrase, isozyme B (BCAB), are characterized by relatively narrow '13Cd resonances around 220 ppm to lowfield of Cd(C104)Z. These resonances are relatively in...

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most aggressive malignancies with limited survival rate. Roles for peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs) have been studied in relation to a range cancers roles epigenetic regulation (including histone modification and microRNA regulation), cancer invasion, extracellular vesicle (EV) release. Hitherto though, knowledge on PADs PDAC limited. In c...

drought is one of the important environmental stresses that reduce the crop growth. oxidative stress is a secondary stress due to drought and other abiotic stresses. in order to study the effect of exogenous application of hydrogen peroxide on drought tolerance of glob amaranth (gomphrena globosa l.), an experiment was conducted in greenhouse conditions. this study was designed as factorial bas...
