We characterize the "sequence landscapes" in several simple, heteropolymer models of proteins by examining their mutation properties. Using an efficient flat-histogram Monte Carlo search method, our approach involves determining the distribution in energy of all sequences of a given length when threaded through a common backbone. These calculations are performed for a number of Protein Data Ban...


 The literature survey has reported that Anethum graveolens extract is inescapably linked with fertility. Recent studies showed the aqueous of an adverse effect on male fertility by affecting serum testosterone level, sperm concentration as well motility. However, its evidence not been established. present paper tries to determine level for dill (Anethum graveolens) MEDLINE, Cochrane Libr...

Objective. This study was aimed to determine the effect of Anethum graveolens extract and Anethum graveolens (dill) tablet on lipid profile, liver enzymes, and gene expression and enzymatic activity of HMG-CoA reductase in high cholesterol fed hamsters. Materials and Methods. Golden Syrian male hamsters (130 ± 10 g) were randomly divided into 6 groups (n = 6) and received daily the following: g...

We used the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to simulate point and non-point source pollution of nitrate in a mesoscale mountainous catchment. The results show that the model efficiency for daily discharge is 0.81 for the calibration period (November 1990 to December 1993) and 0.56 for the validation period (April 2000 to January 2003). The model efficiency for monthly nitrate load is 0.66...
