STIMULATION OF GROWTH AND OIL PRODUCTION IN CUMIN PLANT [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Journal of Flowers and Ornamental Plants, 2020
A pot experiment was carried out during two successive seasons (2017/ 2018 and 2018/2019) at Medicinal and Aromatic Plants Research Department in Dokki. The aim of this work was to study the effect of foliar application of phenylalanine (Phe) and p < /em>

Two Adjacent Phenylalanines In the NMDA Receptor GluN2A Subunit M3 Domain Interactively Regulate Alcohol Sensitivity and Ion Channel Gating [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptor is a key target of ethanol action in the central nervous system. Alcohol inhibition of NMDA receptor function involves small clusters of residues in the third and fourth membrane-associated (M) domains.

C‐mannosylation promotes ADAMTS1 activation and secretion in human testicular germ cell tumor NEC8 cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
C‐mannosylation is a unique form of protein glycosylation. In this study, we demonstrated that ADAMTS1 is C‐mannosylated at Trp562 and Trp565 in human testicular germ cell tumor NEC8 cells. We found that C‐mannosylation of ADAMTS1 is essential for its secretion, processing, enzymatic activity, and ability to promote vasculogenic mimicry. These findings

Comparison of Phenolic Compounds, Carotenoids, Amino Acid Composition, In Vitro Antioxidant and Anti-Diabetic Activities in the Leaves of Seven Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) Cultivars

open access: yesFoods, 2020
Cowpea is a well-known nutrition rich African leafy vegetable that has potential to sustain food and nutrition insecurity in sub-Saharan Africa. Consumption of cowpea legumes is associated with reduced risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Pretreatment cognitive and neural differences between sapropterin dihydrochloride responders and non-responders with phenylketonuria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Sapropterin dihydrochloride (BH4) reduces phenylalanine (Phe) levels and improves white matter integrity in a subset of individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU) known as “responders.” Although prior research has identified biochemical and genotypic ...

The nicotinamide hypothesis revisited—plant defense signaling integrating PARP, nicotinamide, nicotinic acid, epigenetics, and glutathione

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...

Fibrillisation of hydrophobically modified amyloid peptide fragments in an organic solvent [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The self-assembly of a hydrophobically modified fragment of the amyloid beta(A beta) peptide has been studied in methanol. The peptide FFKLVFF is based on A beta(16-20) extended at the N terminus by two phenylalanine residues.

C9orf72 ALS‐causing mutations lead to mislocalization and aggregation of nucleoporin Nup107 into stress granules

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mutations in the C9orf72 gene represent the most common genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal neurodegenerative disease. Using patient‐derived neurons and C. elegans models, we find that the nucleoporin Nup107 is dysregulated in C9orf72‐associated ALS. Conversely, reducing Nup107 levels mitigates disease‐related changes.

Electrochemical Enantiomer Recognition Based on sp3-to-sp2 Converted Regenerative Graphene/Diamond Electrode

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2018
It is of great significance to distinguish enantiomers due to their different, even completely opposite biological, physiological and pharmacological activities compared to those with different stereochemistry.

Hydroxyl transfer versus cyclization reaction in the gas phase: Sequential loss of NH3 and CH2CO from protonated phenylalanine derivatives

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2023
Collisional activation of protonated phenylalanine derivatives deamination products leads to hydroxyl skeletal rearrangement versus cyclization reaction, and to form hydroxylbenzyl cation via elimination of CH2CO.
