Omp85 proteins mediate translocation of polypeptide substrates across and into cellular membranes. They share a common architecture comprising substrate-interacting POTRA domains, a C-terminal 16-stranded β-barrel pore and two signature motifs located on the inner barrel wall and at the tip of the extended L6 loop. The observation of two distinct conformations of the L6 loop in the available Om...

The synthesis of series of tripodal ligands: N,N-bis((3-carboxyethyl-5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1yl)methyl)phenylamine L1, N,N-bis((3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl)phenylamine L2, N,N-bis((3carboxyethyl-5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl)pyridin-2-ylamine L3, N,N-bis((3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol1-yl)methyl)pyridin-2-amine L4, N,N-bis((3-carboxyethyl-5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)methyl)-2nitrophenylamin...

This study aims to design some dual-target anticancer candidates, capable to act as an alkylating agent as well as a thymidylate synthase (TS) inhibitor. The designed scaffold is a combination of nucleobase, amino acid and aziridine structures. The candidates are docked into TS and three DNA double strand structures and evaluated based on their binding interaction energies and ligand efficienci...

Bu çalışmanın amacı; Citrobacter izolatlarına karşı laktik asit bakterilerinin antimikrobiyal ve antibiyofilm aktivitelerini belirlemektir. çalışmada kullanılan izolatları (C1, C2, C3) BD PhoenixTM otomasyon sistemi ile braakii olarak tanımlanmıştır. Biyofilm oluşumu Kongo kırmızılı agar mikrotitrasyon plak metodu kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Antibiyogram test sonuçlarına göre, tüm izolatlar amf...

The eukaryotic and prokaryotic ribosomal proteins that bind to Escherichia coli 5 S rRNA were identified by affinity chromatography. The E. coli ribosomal proteins that associated with the nucleic acid were L5, L18, and L25 confirming earlier findings using the same and different procedures. The rat liver ribosomal proteins that associated with E. coli 5 S rRNA were L6, L7, L19, L35a, and S9; s...

The reactivation of chicken erythrocyte nuclei in chick-mammalian heterokaryons resulted in the activation of chick globin gene expression. However, the level of chick globin synthesis was dependent on the mammalian parental cell type. The level of globin synthesis was high in chick erythrocyte-rat L6 myoblast heterokaryons but was 10-fold lower in chick erythrocyte-mouse A9 cell heterokaryons....

Immunization with megalin induces active Heymann nephritis, which reproduces features of human idiopathic membranous glomerulonephritis. Megalin is a complex immunological target with four discrete ligand-binding domains (LBDs) that may contain epitopes to which pathogenic autoantibodies are directed. Recently, a 236-residue N-terminal fragment, termed "L6," that spans the first LBD was shown t...

In this study we investigate the active constituents of the rhizome of Zingiber officinale, Roscoe (ginger) and determine their activity on glucose uptake in cultured L6 myotubes and the molecular mechanism underlying this action. Freeze-dried ginger powder was extracted with ethyl acetate (1 kg/3 L) to give the total ginger extract, which was then separated into seven fractions, consisting of ...

The electrophysiological properties of a tissue culture muscle line, L6, and a K+ resistant mutant (MK1) derived from L6 were determined to elucidate certain aspects of membrane differentiation and function. MK1 was selected as a clone of myoblasts resistant to the toxic effects of 55 mM K+. The resting potentials of L6 and MK1 myoblasts and myotubes were K+ dependent and equal. The amplitudes ...
