Abstract:: Human cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide (CAMP/LL-37) is a cationic antimicrobial peptide that is widely expressed by myeloid and epithelial cells at the human-environment interface. It possesses broad spectrum antimicrobial capacity against bacteria, fungi and viruses. In addition to its direct antimicrobial activity, CAMP/LL-37 also attracts and recruits monocytes, neutrophils and other...

Abstract:: Senecio jacobaea (tansy ragwort) is a common weed in the Pacific Northwest that contains toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs). Jacobine, the major PA in Senecio jacobaea, was incubated with rat liver microsomes and metabolites were isolated by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and identified by mass spectrometric analysis. Metabolites included a...

Abstract:: Ribosomes are multicomponent macromolecular particles and are essential for the survival of cells in all organisms. The ribosome's universal function is to catalyze polypeptide synthesis through translation of mRNA transcripts. Ribosomes from Escherichia coli, eubacterial organisms, have a sedimentation coefficient of 70S and are composed of 30S and 50S ribonucleoprotein...

Abstract:: The ribosome is a central component of the protein synthetic apparatus. It is a macromolecular complex of protein and RNA. Although much progress has been made in understanding the functional role of the proteins in this particle, little is known of the functional role which the RNA plays. Naturally occurring...

Abstract:: The interaction of skeletal muscle phosphofructokinase with a variety of acidic proteins including calmodulin and troponin C and with nucleic acids (RNA and DNA) is manifest in a reversible, time-dependent loss of catalytic activity. The inactivation is affected by a number of factors. Substrates (fructose-6-phosphate and ATP), positive effectors (fructose-2,6-bisphosphate,...

Creator:: Abdul-Latif, Fazilah
Abstract:: Ribosomes are ribonucleoprotein particles that are essential for the process of protein synthesis in all living systems. Escherichia coli, eubacterial organisms, have ribosomes which display a 70S sedimentation coefficient. They are formed by the association of two ribonucleoprotein subunits which sediment at 50S and 30S. The 30S subunit is a...

Creator:: Yoo, Young Sook
Abstract:: Ribosomes are intricate macromolecular complexes which are a major element of the protein biosynthetic machinery in all life forms. In Escherichia coli they contain about 50 distinct proteins and 3 ribosomal RNAs. The small 30S ribosomal subunit in E. coli incorporates 21 proteins and a 16S rRNA. The 16S rRNA...

Creator:: Rahman, Mohammad A.
Abstract:: Escherichia coli 16S-like ribosomal RNAs from eubacterial, archaebacterial and eukaryotic organisms have several universally conserved sequence zones which are proposed to be single-stranded. A clear function for all of these regions has not yet been defined. To evaluate the roles of these sequence zones in protein synthesis, knowledge of their...
