Drought is one of the most important factors limiting crop yields around the world. Drought stress in plants, the change (increase or decrease) in the production of plant proteins. This research was carried out using bread wheat genotypes. For evaluation of leaf protein pattern in wheat, 10 genotypes were assayed with 3 replications under irrigated (non-stress) and rain-fed (stress) conditions....

background: the advent of recombinant dna technology has facilitated heterologous expression of proteins from various sources in different host systems including escherichia coli. if a plant virus coat protein is expressed in the bacterium it can be used as the antigen for antibody preparation. such a recombinant antigen preparation can be particularly useful where equipment such as ultracentri...

background: interleukin-27 is a heterodimeric cytokine belonging to il-12 and il-23 families, secreted  by antigen presenting cells( apcs ) .the il-27 is composed of 2 subunits: epstein-barr virus induced gene 3 (ebi3) and p28. il-27 is an anti-inflammatory cytokine which has an inhibitory effect on th17 population and suppress the il-17 expression. it is suggested that il-27 could be a potent ...

Objective(s): Hepatitis C is a major cause of liver failure worldwide. Current therapies applied for this disease are not fully effective and produce side effects in most cases. Non-structural protein 3 helicase (NS3) of HCV is one of the key enzymes in viral replication and infection. Therefore, this region is a promising target to design new drugs and therapies against HCV infection. The aim ...

        Ricin, the toxic lectin extracted from the castor bean plant (Ricinus communis), consists of an A chain (RTA) and a B chain (RTB). Anti-A chain Abs and anti-B chain Abs can neutralize toxins in vivo and in vitro via blocking the binding of the toxin to the cell. Also, RTB protein is able to serve as an antigen deliver to the mucosal immune system and act as an immunoad...

  Background: The purity and correct folding of a recombinant protein is critical for any structural, biochemical and vaccine design studies. Plasmodium vivax Duffy binding protein-II is a leading vaccine candidate for vivax malaria. In the present study, the purification process of recombinant DBP-IX (a variant form of PvDBP-II) was optimized to achieve the highest yield and purity. Moreover, ...

this paper presents, a hybrid method, low-resolution and high-resolution, for persian page segmentation. in the low-resolution page segmentation, a pyramidal image structure is constructed for multiscale analysis and segments document image to a set of regions. by high-resolution page segmentation, by connected components analysis, each region is segmented to homogeneous regions and identifying...

Identification and characterization of multi-protein complexes is an important step toward an integrative view of protein-protein interaction networks that determine protein function and cell behavior. The limiting factor for identifying protein complexes is the method for their separation. Blue native PAGE (BN-PAGE) permits a high-resolution separation of multi-protein complexes under native c...
