MarA activates two membrane dependent mechanisms of resistance to different antibiotics, such as ciprofloxacin and tetracycline, including promotion of outflux and inhibition of influx of antibiotics. Thus, MarA causes multiple antibiotic resistance phenotype. The activation of these mechanisms needs overexpression of marA. This could happen through mutation in marR. Thus, the aim of this study...

introduction: production of monoclonal antibody against alkaline phosphatase for application in immunohistochemical and immunocytochemical techniques such as alkaline phosphatase anti-alkaline phosphatase (apaap) method. material and methods: in this investigation female balb/c mice were immunized by several injections of alkaline phosphatase and the antibody titer in their sera were measured a...

Background:The premature termination of high producer clones, which will be killed due to cell proliferation and proteins production antagonism, is one of the basic drawback in recombinant proteins technology. Furtheremore, it is supposed some toxic proteins like interferon which we intended to clone and express, inhibit host cells’ proliferation. So, it is necessary to tightly control IFN-γ pr...

Background:  Cytotoxic T lymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) molecules are expressed on T-cells and inhibit their function by inhibiting activation of subsequent T-cell molecular pathways. Blocking of CTLA-4 inhibits the growth of malignant tumor cells. Anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibodies activate the immune system against cancer. Due to several advantages of single-chain antibodi...

the objective of the article is to investigate the variability in growth and wood properties of the willow clones. the growth and wood traits of four year old 21 clones willow clones were investigated. analysis of variance showed that willow clones differed significantly for all the studied growth and wood traits. among the growth parameters the maximum heritability value was shown by height wh...

Background: Recombination Activating Genes (RAG) mutated embryonic stem cells are (ES) cells which are unable to perform V (D) J recombination. These cells can be used for generation of immunodeficient mouse. Creating biallelic mutations by CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing has emerged as a powerful technique to generate site-specific mutations in different sequences. Ob...
