Tolerance of Anadenanthera peregrina to Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Eucalyptus grandis essential oil as condition for mixed plantation [PDF]
Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2012 With the purpose of selecting the species of woody Caatinga for mixed plantations with Eucalyptus spp., the allelophatic effects of E. camaldulensis and E. grandis essential oil were studied on the growth activities of Anadenanthera peregrina. The plants

Characterization of the antimicrobial peptide derived from sapecin B, an antibacterial protein of Sarcophaga peregrina (flesh fly) [PDF]
Biochemical Journal, 1994 Sapecin B, an antibacterial protein of Sarcophaga peregrina, was divided into four peptides. A hendecapeptide derived from its helix region was found to have comparable antibacterial activity with that of the complete protein. This peptide had a much wider spectrum of antimicrobial activity than that of sapecin B, exhibiting activity on not only ...

Regulation of the Expression of Cathepsin B in Sarcophaga Peregrina (Flesh Fly) at the Translational Level During Metamorphosis [PDF]
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1995 Previously, we reported that cathepsin B of pupal hemocytes participates in dissociation of the fat body of Sarcophaga larvae at metamorphosis. In this study, we demonstrated that the amount of cathepsin B in hemocytes was controlled at the translational level, i.e. larval hemocytes stored a significant amount of untranslated cathepsin B mRNA. When the

Purification and characterization of a 59-kilodalton protein that specifically binds to NF-kappa B-binding motifs of the defense protein genes of Sarcophaga peregrina (the flesh fly). [PDF]
Molecular and Cellular Biology, 1993 Various Sarcophaga peregrina (flesh fly) defense protein genes were shown to be activated when NIH-Sape-4 cells were cultured with bacterial lipopolysaccharides or beta-1,3-glucan. The 5' upstream regions of the defense protein genes were found to have common motifs showing similarity to the mammalian NF-kappa B-binding consensus sequence.

The South-American distribution and southernmost record of Biomphalaria peregrina—a potential intermediate host of schistosomiasis [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Schistosomiasis remains a major parasitic disease, endemic in large parts of South America. Five neotropical species of Biomphalaria have been found to act as intermediate hosts of Schistosoma mansoni in natural populations, while others have been shown ...
