Specific receptors for des-Asp1-angiotensin II (("angiotensin III") in rat adrenals. [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1977
The specific binding of angiotensin II and des-Asp1-angiotensin II ("angiotensin III") III") to rat adrenals was studied with the use of the tritiated peptides. The binding sites having maximal affinity for angiotensin II were characterized by an equilibrium dissociation constant of 3.3 to 5.2 X 10(-9) M. Angiotensin III was able to interact with these

Interaction Studies Between Cyclic Peptide ADT-C3 (Ac-CADTPC-NH2) with E-Cadherin Protein using the Molecular Docking Method Simulated on 120ns

Jurnal Kimia Sains dan Aplikasi, 2018
The treatment of diseases that attack the brain is very difficult, because the delivery of drug molecules to the brain is often hindered by the blood-brain barrier (BBB). So that the drug delivery is not right on the target cell.

Three Decades of China's Bt Cotton: Achievements and Insights

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4393-4414, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Cotton is a vital natural fibre crop with significant economic value worldwide. In response to the threat of cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera), the China government initiated a research project in 1992 to develop transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton.

3RAD‐Guided SNP Discovery for Species Identification and Conservation of the Medicinal Southern African Tree Genus Greyia Hook. & Harv.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
A two‐phase SNP discovery and assay‐development strategy was used to resolve species boundaries within the tree genus Greyia, as overlapping phenotypes and distributions limit accurate identification. From 47,726 genome‐wide SNPs generated by 3RAD sequencing, a diagnostic 23‐SNP Type panel was developed and validated, successfully distinguishing G ...

Improving cytosolic aspartate biosynthesis increases glucoamylase production in Aspergillus niger under oxygen limitation

Microbial Cell Factories, 2020
Background Glucoamylase is one of the most industrially applied enzymes, produced by Aspergillus species, like Aspergillus niger. Compared to the traditional ways of process optimization, the metabolic engineering strategies to improve glucoamylase ...

Natural Negative Feedback Loops Confer Indica‐Japonica Differentiation for Grain Size Homeostasis in Rice

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
This study reveals the genetic and molecular mechanisms controlling grain size homeostasis through fine‐tuning OsGRX8 self‐expression by two natural negative feedback loops functioning in redox‐dependent or ‐independent manners and identifies two self‐regulatory haplotypes (SRHs) for the subspecies differentiation in rice.

Reversing Lanmodulin's Metal‐Binding Sequence in Short Peptides Surprisingly Increases the Lanthanide Affinity

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 46, November 10, 2025.
Accidentally reversing the lanthanide‐binding sequences of lanmodulin‐inspired short peptides lead to the serendipitous discovery of a set of peptides with a one order of magnitude higher lanthanide‐binding affinity than the uncapped peptides synthesised in the correct direction.
