As an aromatic and colorful plant of substantive taste, saffron (Crocus sativus L.) owes such properties of matter to growing class of the secondary metabolites derived from the carotenoids, apocarotenoids. Regarding the critical role of microRNAs in secondary metabolic synthesis and the limited number of identified miRNAs in C. sativus, on the other hand, one may see the point how the characte...

Molecular structure of a gene, ZmSTPK1, encoding a serine/threonine protein kinase in maize was analyzed by bioinformatic tool and its expression pattern was studied under chemical biological fertilizers. Bioinformatic analysis cleared that ZmSTPK1 is located on chromosome 10, from position 141015332 to 141017582. The full genomic sequence of the gene is 2251 bp in length and includes 2 exons. ...

The candidate related were obtained from traditional Chinese medicine system database PharmMapper. disease-related genes online Mendelian inheritance man, GeneCards DisGeNET databases. Molecular docki...

Ras and Raf-kinase interact through the Ras-binding (RBD) cysteine-rich domains (CRD) of Raf to signal mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, yet molecular mechanism leading activation has remained elusive. We present 2.8 Å crystal structure HRas–CRaf-RBD_CRD complex showing Ras–Raf interface as a continuous surface on Ras, seen in KRas–CRaf-RBD_CRD structure. In dynamics simulations dimer m...
