Aminopeptidase P (APP) removes N-terminal amino acids from peptides and proteins when the penultimate residue is proline. To understand the structure-function relationships of aminopeptidase P of Streptomyces lavendulae, ...

A HfSiO4 ceramic was prepared by a conventional solid state synthesis method by sintering at 1600 degrees C. The morphology of the sintered surface was characterized using scanning electron microscopy and atomic force ...

The present study was aimed to investigate in vitro alpha-glucosidase inhibition, antioxidant, anticancer, and antimycobacterial activities of the ethyl acetate extract of A. tamilnadensis leaves. The extract recorded ...

Molecular assemblies and gels made up of fluorescent pi-systems through noncovalent interactions are fascinating materials with a wide range of properties and applications. Fluorescence is an extremely sensitive property, ...

Cerium nanoparticles (CeNPs) are used in biomedical applications due to their autocatalytic properties. Even though their use in the management of neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, etc. has been reported, their role ...

Solid oxide materials were prepared via a solid state reaction route with a stoichiometry composition: x% of CaZrO3 and (100 - x)% of Gd2Zr2O7 (x = 10, 20, 33.3, 40). Powder X-ray diffraction under ambient and high-temperature ...

FtsE is one of the earliest cell division proteins that assembles along with FtsX at the mid-cell site during cell division in Escherichia coli. Both these proteins are highly conserved across diverse bacterial genera and ...

At least a partial substitution of carbon black/precipitated silica being used in the rubber industry with low cost reinforcing fillers based on china clay (kaolin) — a non-replenishable natural resource could lead to ...

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) involves the use of photochemical reactions mediated through the interaction of photosensitizing agent for the treatment of malignant tumor. The present study was carried out to evaluate the ...

The formation of coaxial p-n heterojunctions by mesoscale alignment of self-sorted donor and acceptor molecules, important to achieve high photocurrent generation in organic semiconductor-based assemblies, remains a ...
