Soja se uzgaja na 121 milijuna hektara te predstavlja četvrtu najzastupljeniju ratarsku kulturu u svijetu, dok Hrvatskoj po zastupljenosti površina zauzima treće mjesto. U promatranom razdoblju od 2009 do 2019 uzgajala prosjeku 65.068 ha uz prosječni prinos zrna 2.6 t ha-1. Najveći ostvaren je 2018. godine (245 188 t), a iste postignut i najveći (3.18 ha-1). Proizvodnju soje karakterizira pozit...

velopment is initiated by transcriptional upregulation of Ivelisse Sánchez and Junying Yuan* Egl-1, another BH3-only member of the BCL-2 family Department of Cell Biology that acts by inhibiting Ced-9, an antiapoptotic member Harvard Medical School of the BCL-2 family (Conradt and Horvitz, 1998). 240 Longwood Avenue BIM may not be the only BH3-only member that is Boston, Massachusetts 02115 ind...

HDAC inhibitors (HDACis) have been demonstrated with profound antiproliferative activities in various tumor types. Previously, we screened several polyoxometalate HDACis based on our p21 luciferase promoter system and demonstrated that such HDACis have antitumor activity. Here, we further investigate the antitumor mechanism of PAC-320, a compound among the polyoxometalates, in human prostate ca...

Mutations of the ribosomal protein S19 (RPS19) gene were recently identified in 10 patients with Diamond Blackfan anemia (DBA). To determine the prevalence of mutations in this gene in DBA and to begin to define the molecular basis for the observed variable clinical phenotype of this disorder, the genomic sequence of the 6 exons and the 5' untranslated region of the RPS19 gene was directly asse...

Suspension-cultured tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) cells react to stimulation by chitin fragments with a rapid, transient alkalinization of the growth medium, but behave refractory to a second treatment with the same stimulus (G. Felix, M. Regenass, T. Boller [1993] Plant J 4: 307-316). We analyzed this phenomenon and found that chitin fragments caused desensitization in a time- and concentra...
