BACKGROUND The uropathogenic specific protein (Usp) and three OrfU proteins (OrfU1, OrfU2 and OrfU3) are encoded in the putative small pathogenicity island which is closely associated with Uropathogenic Escherichia coli. Although homology search revealed that Usp and OrfUs have a homology with nuclease-type bacteriocins, which possess H-N-H nuclease motif, and immunity proteins respectively, th...

Response to the insect hormone ecdysone is mediated by a nuclear receptor complex containing Ultraspiracle (USP) and the Ecdysone Receptor (EcR). Among other phenotypes, loss of functional USP in Drosophila eye development results in an accelerated morphogenetic furrow, although loss of ecdysone arrests the furrow. We have shown that USP both represses and activates a gene affecting furrow move...

Low nitrogen (N) use efficiency from urea fertilizers due to environmental losses results in high cost of for agricultural productions. Coating with biodegradable polymers makes them effective control and efficient N release. In this study, starch polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) were used combination acrylic acid (AA), citric (CA) maleic (MA) the coating prills. Different formulations prepared applied ...
