Developmental control of the heat-shock stress regulon in Streptomyces coelicolor
1995
In the differentiating eubacterium Streptomyces coelicolor, nutritional imbalances activate a developmental programme which involves the heat-shock stress regulon. In liquid batch cultures, the growth curve could be separated into four components: rapid growth 1 (RG1), transition (T), rapid growth 2 (RG2) and stationary (S). Patterns of gene expression in cultures subjected to heat shock in various phases were recorded on two-dimensional gels and analysed using advanced statistical methods. The responses of all heat-shock proteins (HSPs) were highly dependent upon the growth phase, thus demonstrating that the four phases of growth were physiologically distinct. For many HSPs, the levels of …
Cytotoxic drimane meroterpenoids from the Indonesian marine sponge Dactylospongia elegans
2017
Abstract Chemical investigation of the methanol extract of an Indonesian marine sponge Dactylospongia elegans (family Thorectidae) afforded two undescribed drimane meroterpenoidal metabolites, dactylospongenones G and H (1 and 2) together with thirteen known compounds (3–15) including pelorol, 5-epi-ilimaquinone, 5-epi-smenospongine, 5-epi-smenospongidine, nakijiquinone D, smenospongine C, isospongiaquinone, isosmenospongine, nakijiquinones A-C, G and 5-epi-nakijiquinone Q. The structures of the new metabolites were unambiguously determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and by HRESIMS. All isolated compounds were assessed for their antimicrobial, antitubercular and cytotoxic activities. Sev…
Decorin transfection induces proteomic and phenotypic modulation in breast cancer cells 8701-BC
2008
Decorin is a prototype member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan family widely distributed in the extracellular matrices of many connective tissues, where it has been shown to play multiple important roles in the matrix assembly process, as well as in some cellular activities. A major interest for decorin function concerns its role in tumorigenesis, as growth-inhibitor of different neoplastic cells, and potential antimetastatic agent. The aim of our research was to investigate wide-ranged effects of transgenic decorin on breast cancer cells. To this purpose we utilized the well-characterized 8701-BC cell line, isolated from a ductal infiltrating carcinoma of the breast, and two derived …
Protein mapping by two-dimensional high performance liquid chromatography.
2000
Current developments in drug discovery in the pharmaceutical industry require highly efficient analytical systems for protein mapping providing high resolution, robustness, sensitivity, reproducibility and a high throughput of samples. The potential of two-dimensional (2D) HPLC as a complementary method to 2D-gel electrophoresis is investigated, especially in view of speed and repeatability. The method will be applied for proteins of a molecular mass <20 000 which are not well resolved in 2D-gel electrophoresis. The 2D-HPLC system described in this work consisted of anion- or cation-exchange chromatography in the first dimension and reversed-phase chromatography in the second dimension. We …
Unambiguous recognizable two-dimensional languages
2006
We consider the family UREC of unambiguous recognizable two-dimensional languages. We prove that there are recognizable languages that are inherently ambiguous, that is UREC family is a proper subclass of REC family. The result is obtained by showing a necessary condition for unambiguous recognizable languages. Further UREC family coincides with the class of picture languages defined by unambiguous 2OTA and it strictly contains its deterministic counterpart. Some closure and non-closure properties of UREC are presented. Finally we show that it is undecidable whether a given tiling system is unambiguous.
3-Diazopyrroles—IV. Structure determination using 13C NMR spectroscopy
1990
Abstract On the basis of the 13 C NMR chemical shifts, it is proposed that, although b is the major canonical structure, structure c , in which a negative charge resides at C-3, provides an important contribution to the resonance stabilization of the 3-diazopyrroles, 1–4 .
Perimeter symmetrization of some dynamic and stationary equations involving the Monge-Ampère operator
2017
We apply the perimeter symmetrization to a two-dimensional pseudo-parabolic dynamic problem associated to the Monge-Ampere operator as well as to the second order elliptic problem which arises after an implicit time discretization of the dynamical equation. Curiously, the dynamical problem corresponds to a third order operator but becomes a singular second order parabolic equation (involving the 3-Laplacian operator) in the class of radially symmetric convex functions. Using symmetrization techniques some quantitative comparison estimates and several qualitative properties of solutions are given.
Identification of fatty acid binding proteins as markers associated with the initiation and/or progression of renal cell carcinoma
2005
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) representing the most common neoplasia of the kidney in Western countries is a histologic diverse disease with an often unpredictable course. The prognosis of RCC is worsened with the onset of metastasis, and the therapies currently available are of limited success for the treatment of metastatic RCC. Although gene expression analyses and other methods are promising tools clarifying and standardizing the pathological classification of RCC, novel innovative molecular markers for the diagnosis, prognosis, and for the monitoring of this disease during therapy as well as potential therapeutic targets are urgently needed. Using proteome-based strategies, a number of RC…
Identification of protein IT of the intestinal cytoskeleton as a novel type I cytokeratin with unusual properties and expression patterns.
1990
A major cytoskeletal polypeptide (Mr approximately 46,000; protein IT) of human intestinal epithelium was characterized by biochemical and immunological methods. The polypeptide, which was identified as a specific and genuine mRNA product by translation in vitro, reacted, in immunoblotting after SDS-PAGE, only with one of numerous cytokeratin (CK) antisera tested but with none of many monoclonal CK antibodies. In vitro, it formed heterotypic complexes with the type II CK 8, as shown by blot binding assays and gel electrophoresis in 4 M urea, and these complexes assembled into intermediate filaments (IFs) under appropriate conditions. A chymotrypsin-resistant Mr approximately 38,000 core fra…
Système distribué d'alerte de la qualité de l'eau pour la rivière Mudan basé sur l'EFDC et les SIG
2016
Simulation and Early Warning System (SEWS) is a powerful tool for river water quality monitoring. Mudan River, an important river in northeastern cold regions of China, can run out of China into Russia. Thus, the water quality of Mudan River is highly concerned not only locally andregionally but also internationally. Objective of this study is to establish an excellent SEWS of water quality so that the spatio-temporal distribution of water quality in both open-water and ice-covered periods can be accurately simulated and visualized to understand the spatial variation of pollutants along the river course. The dissertation is structured into 7 chapters, chapter 1 outlines the background of th…
