Metagenomics has revealed that the marine microbial biosphere is immensely more diverse than originally considered, and is an almost untapped reservoir for the potential discovery of microbial natural products. Despite n ...

Sequence specific transcription factors (SSTFs) combinatorially define cell types during development by forming recursively linked network kernels. Pitx2 expression begins during gastrulation, together with Hox genes, an ...

The pseudo-glycosyltransferase VldE catalyzes non-glycosidic C-N coupling between an unsaturated cyclitol and a saturated aminocyclitol with the conservation of the stereochemical configuration of the substrates to form ...

We developed, synthesized, and tested a multifunctional nanostructured lipid nanocarrier- based system (NLCS) for efficient delivery of an anticancer drug and siRNA directly into the lungs by inhalation. The system conta ...

Following surveys of seaweeds in Oregon and the Caribbean, four algal species were selected for study on the basis of their crude extract biological activity or thin-layer chromatographic characteristics. Extracts were ...

Marine algae have been recognized as a rich resource of new and unusual organic molecules with diverse biological properties. The current need to develop new antifungal, anticancer, antibiotic and antiviral drugs has ...
