The Mechanisms of Catalysis by Metallo β-Lactamases [PDF]
, 2008 Class B β-lactamases or metallo-β-lactamases (MBLs) require zinc ions to catalyse the hydrolysis of β-lactam antibiotics such as penicillins, cephalosporins, carbapenems, and cephamycins.

Occurrence and activity of ecdysterone (insect moulting hormone) in plants
, 1987 The occurrence and biological activity of ecdysterone (insect moulting hormone) was examined in a number of plant species. A simple method was developed for the semiquantitative analysis of ecdysterone in plant extracts.

Action of ecdysterone on the moulting of amphipod females: Gammarus pulex (L.) and G.fossarum Koch. Early results. [Translation from: Crustaceana 28, 86-88, 1975.] [PDF]
, 1975 In studying sexual attraction in gammarids of the group pulex, it has seemed necessary to dissociate the processes of moulting and ovogenesis in order to recognize their respective effects on this phenomenon.

The Isolation of Ecdysterone Inducible Genes by Hybridization Subtraction Chromatography [PDF]
, 1981 We have developed a procedure for selectively enriching a mRNA population for inducible sequences. Other than the induced mRNA species, the population of mRNA in control cells is approximately the same as the mRNA population in induced cells. Cytoplasmic

Ecdysteroids: A novel class of anabolic agents? [PDF]
, 2015 Increasing numbers of dietary supplements with ecdysteroids are marketed as “natural anabolic agents”. Results of recent studies suggested that their anabolic effect is mediated by estrogen receptor (ER) binding. Within this study the anabolic potency of

Genes for Drosophila small heat shock proteins are regulated differently by ecdysterone
, 1991 Genes for small heat shock proteins (hsp27 to hsp22) are activated in late third-instar larvae of Drosophila melanogaster in the absence of heat stress.
