Tumor budding/sprouting has been shown to be an independent adverse prognostic factor in T1 and T3N0 colorectal carcinomas, however, its assessment could be improved by more accurate identification of budding carcinoma cells and consideration of budding areas. Moreover, tumor budding mechanisms are yet to be defined. In this study, we evaluated the identification of budding tumor cells by eithe...

The alphavirus Semliki Forest virus (SFV) matures by budding at the cell surface. This process is driven by interactions of its membrane protein heterodimer E2-E1 and the nucleocapsid. The virus penetrates into new cells by an E1-mediated membrane fusion event. The E1 subunit has a short, strongly positively charged cytoplasmic tail peptide (Arg-Arg) which is very conserved among different alph...

this paper investigates the removal of iron and zinc from aqueous solution with dairy wastewaterin three different biomasses such as lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus (lb-12), streptococcus thermophillus(stm-7) and a combination of both this bacteria culture (yc-380) and the optimization of removal efficiencyusing minitab program. a full 23 factorial design of experiments was applied to ...

Two functions are proposed for the conserved family of UCS proteins: helping to fold myosin motor proteins and stimulating the motor function of folded myosins. We examined both functions in yeast. The fission yeast UCS protein (Rng3p) concentrates in nodes containing myosin-II (Myo2) and other proteins that condense into the cytokinetic contractile ring. Both the N-terminal (central) and C-ter...

Climate change is leading to phase shifts in coral reefs worldwide. In many biogeographic regions, octocorals are now becoming the most abundant benthic components, due their environmental resilience and ability rapidly colonize reef surfaces. Regeneration abilities asexual reproduction highly important for this probably contribute successful spread of certain octocorals, including invasive spe...
