Can the body composition of crossbred dairy cattle be predicted by equations for beef cattle? [PDF]

open access: yesAsian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2018
Objective The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficiency of the Hankins and Howe (HH46), Valadares Filho (V06), and Marcondes (M12) equations for predicting the physical and chemical composition of dairy crossbred bulls carcasses, as well as the ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF CHICKPEA

open access: yesZernovì Produkti ì Kombìkorma
Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.), one of the oldest cultivated plants, is grown in two main varieties: desi and kabuli. The origin of chickpea is associated with the regions of the so-called "Fertile Crescent," covering modern territories of Turkey, Syria ...

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

The tardigrade cuticle

open access: yesLimnological Review, 2021
Tardigrades (phylum Tardigrada) are aquatic microecdysozoans that have adapted to survive extreme conditions through the formation of cysts or ametabolic tuns. Their body is covered by a cuticle that plays an important role in their life cycle, including

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Chemical composition of Leonurus quinquelobatus in Western Siberia

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2018
The chemical composition of plants should be studied in order to understand the role of environmental factors in accumulation of various chemical elements by them, as well as to make a better sense of the specifics of potential resource plants.

Influence of Chemical Composition on Porosity in Aluminium Alloys

open access: yesArchives of Foundry Engineering, 2014
Porosity is one of the major defects in aluminum castings, which results is a decrease of a mechanical properties. Porosity in aluminum alloys is caused by solidification shrinkage and gas segregation.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.
