Six new species of Zaischnopsis Ashmead (Hymenoptera: Eupelmidae) from China are described, covid Jiang & Peng sp. nov., fuscolivida Tang lii pacis campaniformis and zhongi nov. All the described illustrated based on females, partial mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) sequences provided for six as well previously Z. fumosa Xiang. Females all recorded differentiated in a key.

This study reports on the molecular identification of fish species from processed products which had a priori been classified as belonging to 5 important species in Iran for human consumption. DNA barcoding using direct sequencing of an approximately 650bp of mitochondrial Cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) gene revealed incorrect labeling of Narrow-barred Spanish mackerel samples. High occurre...

Few studies on purified bacterial reduced diphosphopyridine nucleotide (DPNH) or cytochrome oxidases have been reported, although cytochrome reduction by DPNH’ in crude bacterial extracts has repeatedly been described (l-6). Dolin (7, 8) purified a flavoprotein DPNH oxidase and peroxidase from Streptococcus jaecalis, and Lenhoff and Kaplan (9) and Lenhoff et al. (10) described the characteristi...

the molecular phylogenetic trees of 42 representative samples of malaysian pangasiid were constructed using cytochrome c oxidase subunit i (coi). the topologies resulting from molecular analyses, maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and bayesian inference, revealed the paraphyly of pangasius genus and monophyly of p. nasutus, p. bocourti, p. micronemus, and p. hypopthalmus with high support v...

The ionic-strength-dependences of the rate constants (log k plotted versus square root of 1) for oxidation of native and pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-modified cytochromes c by three different preparations of cytochrome c oxidase have complex non-linear character, which may be explained on the basis of present knowledge of the structure of the oxidase and the monomer-dimer equilibrium of the enzyme. T...

The activity of the hepatic microsomal ethanol-oxidizing system (MEOS) was compared with the content of three forms of cytochrome P-450. Measurements were also made of the activity of microsomal reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase, the enzyme which generates H2O2 in microsomes and which has been considered by some to be the rate-limiting step of MEOS activity. Et...

The 02, CO, and alkyl isocyanide-binding properties of a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate heme proteins have been compared in detail to those of protoheme mOn0-3-( 1-imidazoy1)-propylamide monomethyl ester in aqueous suspensions of soap micelles. The proteins examined include: cytochrome P-450,,, from Pseudomonasputida, beef heart cytochrome c oxidase, yeast cytochrome c peroxidase, a and...

We report Talitroides alluaudi (Chevreux, 1896) from Miyako Island, Ryukyu Islands, Japan. Although this terrestrial amphipod is distributed worldwide, including Indo-Pacific islands, Europe, and North South America, the present specimens represent first record of species Japanese islands. The cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) sequence a Island specimen was unique compared with known COI seq...
