Poultry by-products and rainbow trout (Onchorhynchus mykiss) viscera are abundant and underutilized resources that can be used as a unique protein source to make protein hydrolysates. In this study protein hydrolysate were made from these two different sources with Alcalase 2.4L. The functional properties of Fish viscera protein hydrolysate (FPH) compared to poultry by-products protein hydrolys...

Amelogenin gene (AMEL-X) encodes an enamel protein called amelogenin, which plays a vital role in tooth development. Any mutations in this gene or the associated pathway lead to developmental abnormalities of the tooth. The present study aims to analyze functional missense mutations in AMEL-X genes and derive an association with amelogenesis imperfecta. The information on miss...

Thermal characteristics of egg white proteins (EWP) may differ in the presence of saccharides. Therefore, the influence of saccharides including carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), pectin, sucrose and maltodextrin and heating time on physicochemical characteristics of EWP as a whole were studied. Investigation of Heat Coagulation Time (HCT), solubility, turbidity and protein secondary structure of h...

the use of organophosphorus hydrolase (oph) enzyme to degrade chemical warfare agents is one of the most frequently used decontamination methods. oph is a ~36 kda homodimeric metalloprotein that is found in the membrane of flavobacterium sp. strain atcc 27551 and brevundimonas diminuta mg and is capable of hydrolyzing a wide range of oxon and thion , such as paraoxon and parathion. oph gene ( o...

Clostridium botulinum type A (BoNT/A) produces a neurotoxin recently found to be useful as an injectable drug for the treatment of abnormal muscle contractions. The catalytic domain of this toxin which is responsible for the main toxin activity is a zinc metalloprotease that inhibits the release of neurotransmitter mediators in neuromuscular junctions. A cell penetrating cationic peptide, Tat, ...

the consumer demand for formulated foods containing soy proteins has resulted in an increase in the number of new products processed with soy ingredient. in this study acidified soy-cow milk blend drinks were manufactured by fermentation of mixtures of milk/soy milk in ratio of 100/0, 70/30 and 50/50 and dilution was done after fermentation to 4.5- 6.5 total solid (ts). high methoxyl pectin was...
