A strain of Pseudomonas acidovorans used the organophosphorus pesticide breakdown products, ionic O,O-diethyl phosphorothioate and ionic O,O-diethyl phosphorodithioate, as sulfur sources. The growth yields from the thiophosphates and sulfate were 3.6 to 4.1 kg of protein per mol of sulfur. Elemental sulfur and sulfide also served as sulfur sources but gave lower growth yields.

in order to investigate the effect of consumption of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers on harvest indices and some important agronomic traits of triticale (triticosecale wittmack var. javaniloo), a factorial experiment based on the randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted in paddy field of rice research institute of iran (rasht) during 2010-2012 for two years. th...

________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract The effect of inbreeding on the 305-d yields of milk, fat and protein, and the percentages of fat and protein in the first three lactations was estimated using records on the South African Jersey cows that participated in the National Dairy Animal Improvement Scheme. Inbreeding coefficients were estimated ...

Recent advances in genomics, proteomics, and bioinformatics have facilitated the use of recombinant DNA technology in order to evaluate any protein of interest, without prior knowledge of the protein’s cellular location or function. The parallel use of affinity tags with recombinant DNA techniques, allows the facile modification of proteins of interest leading to efficient identification, produ...

Methods to increase temperature stability of vaccines and adjuvants are needed to reduce dependence on cold chain storage. We report herein creation and application of pVEX expression vectors to improve vaccine and adjuvant manufacture and thermostability. Defined media fermentation yields of 6g/L thermostable toll-like receptor 5 agonist flagellin were obtained using an IPTG inducible pVEX-fla...

The expression and purification of large amounts of recombinant protein complexes is an essential requirement for structural biology studies. For over two decades, prokaryotic expression systems such as E. coli have dominated the scientific literature over costly and less efficient eukaryotic cell lines. Despite the clear advantage in terms of yields and costs of expressing recombinant proteins...

The first application of thioacid capture ligation in protein synthesis is described. Two histone H3 proteins were synthesized in which a 30 min ligation reaction gave the protein products in good yields.
