From Genetics to Functional Genomics: Improvement in Drought Signaling and Tolerance in Wheat.

Frontiers in plant science

Budak H, Hussain B, Khan Z, Ozturk NZ, Ullah N.
PMID: 26635838

Drought being a yield limiting factor has become a major threat to international food security. It is a complex trait and drought tolerance response is carried out by various genes, transcription factors (TFs), microRNAs (miRNAs), hormones, proteins, co-factors, ions,...

Plant tRNA nucleotidyltransferase : II. Some properties of the purified enzyme from Lupinus luteus seeds.

Planta

Cudny H, Pietrzak M, Kaczkowski J.
PMID: 24407994
Planta. 1978 Jan;142(1):29-36. doi: 10.1007/BF00385116.

Purified lupine tRNA nucleotidyltransferase catalyzed only the incorporation of AMP and CMP into 3'-terminal-C-C-A sequences of tRNA as determined by terminal analysis of the reaction product. The incorporation of AMP and CMP was inhibited by their respective triphosphates to...

Antihypertensive effect of allicin in dexamethasone-induced hypertensive rats.

Integrative medicine research

Dubey H, Singh A, Patole AM, Tenpe CR.
PMID: 28462145
Integr Med Res. 2017 Mar;6(1):60-65. doi: 10.1016/j.imr.2016.12.002. Epub 2016 Dec 16.

BACKGROUND: Glucocorticoid is among the most commonly prescribed medicine. Unfortunately, Excess glucocorticoid level leads hypertension in 80-90% patients. Garlic (Allium sativum) has been used since ancient times and even nowadays as a part of popular medicine for various ailments...

Introducing QMC/MMpol: Quantum Monte Carlo in Polarizable Force Fields for Excited States.

Journal of chemical theory and computation

Guareschi R, Zulfikri H, Daday C, Floris FM, Amovilli C, Mennucci B, Filippi C.
PMID: 26959751
J Chem Theory Comput. 2016 Apr 12;12(4):1674-83. doi: 10.1021/acs.jctc.6b00044. Epub 2016 Mar 22.

We present for the first time a quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics scheme which combines quantum Monte Carlo with the reaction field of classical polarizable dipoles (QMC/MMpol). In our approach, the optimal dipoles are self-consistently generated at the variational Monte Carlo...

Differential expression of seven conserved microRNAs in response to abiotic stress and their regulatory network in Helianthus annuus.

Frontiers in plant science

Ebrahimi Khaksefidi R, Mirlohi S, Khalaji F, Fakhari Z, Shiran B, Fallahi H, Rafiei F, Budak H, Ebrahimie E.
PMID: 26442054
Front Plant Sci. 2015 Sep 17;6:741. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2015.00741. eCollection 2015.

Biotic and abiotic stresses affect plant development and production through alternation of the gene expression pattern. Gene expression itself is under the control of different regulators such as miRNAs and transcription factors (TFs). MiRNAs are known to play important...

Competitive performance, training load and physiological responses during tapering in young swimmers.

Journal of human kinetics

Toubekis AG, Drosou E, Gourgoulis V, Thomaidis S, Douda H, Tokmakidis SP.
PMID: 24233022
J Hum Kinet. 2013 Oct 08;38:125-34. doi: 10.2478/hukin-2013-0052. eCollection 2013.

The study examined the changes of training load and physiological parameters in relation to competitive performance during a period leading to a national championship. The training content of twelve swimmers (age: 14.2±1.3 yrs) was recorded four weeks before the...

Continuous analysis of move suppressed and shifted DMC.

ISA transactions

Kember GC, Dubay R, Mansour SE.

"Shifted DMC" (shifted dynamic matrix control) has been empirically shown to have significant improved closed-loop control characteristics over "move-suppressed DMC" where, in the latter, diagonal terms of the dynamic matrix DMC prediction model are augmented to reduce numerical ill...

Risk aversion predictive control.

ISA transactions

Kember GC, Mansour SE, Dubay R.
