A total of 319 nasal swab samples were collected to clarify the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of E. coli in the respiratory tract of goats in Can Tho, Vietnam. It indicated that E. coli was detected at a relatively minor rate (8.46%), and their prevalence in male goats and dairy goats was higher than that in others.

Antimicrobial resistance is an emerging challenge for health personnel and researchers. In such scenario, alternative strategies targeting novel ways to kill or inhibit growth of microbes are need of the hour. Antimicrobial peptide can be a promising candidate to deal with this crisis. Extracellular matrix protein vitronectin (Vn) is recently being established as a bactericidal agent against certain microbes. Caprine Vn has got few structural alterations as compare to human Vn.

The decoy approach against nuclear factor kB (NF-kB) is a useful tool to alter NF-kB dependent gene expression using synthetic oligonucleotides (ODNs) carrying NF-kB specific cis-elements. Unfortunately, ODNs are not stable and need to be extensively modified to be used in vivo or ex vivo. We have previously evaluated the possible use of peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) as decoy molecules. The backbone of PNAs is composed of N-(2-aminoethyl)glycine units, rendering these molecules resistant to both nucleases and proteases.

The Na + /H + exchanger is a ubiquitous membrane protein of bacteria, plants and mammals. The first isoform discov-ered (NHE1) is present on the mammalian plasma mem-brane and transports oneH + out of cells inexchange for one extracellular Na + . With solubilization in standard SDS/ PAGE buffer, this protein had a high tendency to aggregate when subjected to elevated temperature. The aggregates were stable and did not dissociate in high concentrations of SDSor 2-mercaptoethanol.

When theaand bchains were separated from human oxyhemoglobin (HbO2), each individual chain was oxidized easily to the ferric form, their rates being almost the same with a very strong acid-catalysis. In the HbO2tetramer, on theother hand, bothchains become considerably resistant to autoxidation over a wide range of pH values (pH 5±11).

Glutamate decarboxylase is a pyridoxal 5¢-phosphate-dependent enzyme responsible for the irreversiblea-decar-boxylation of glutamate to yield 4-aminobutyrate. In Escherichia coli, as well as in other pathogenic and non-pathogenic enteric bacteria, this enzyme is a structural component of the glutamate-based acid resistance system responsible for cell survival in extremely acidic conditions (pH

The nature of cGMP transport in human erythrocytes, its relationship to glutathione conjugate transport, and pos-sible mediation by multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRPs) have been investigated. MRP1, MRP4 and MRP5 are detected in immunoblotting studies with erythrocytes. MRP1and MRP5 are also detected in multidrug resistant COR-L23/R and MOR/R cells but at greatly reduced levels in the parent, drug sensitive COR-L23/P cells. MRP4 is detected in MOR/R but not COR-L23/R cells.

Embryos of the brine shrimp,Artemia franciscana, exhibit remarkable resistance to physiological stress, which is tem-porally correlated with the presence of two proteins, one a small heat shock/a-crystallin protein termed p26 and the other called artemin, of unknown function.Artemin was sequenced previously by Edman degradation, and its rela-tionship to ferritin, an iron storage protein, established.The isolation from anArtemiaexpressed sequence tag library of artemin and ferritin cDNAs extends this work. ...

HIV-1 protease (PR) and two drug-resistant variants – PR with the V82A mutation (PRV82A) and PR with the I84V mutation (PRI84V) – were studied using reduced peptide analogs of five natural cleavage sites (CA-p2, p2-NC, p6 pol -PR, p1-p6 and NC-p1) to understand the structural and kine-tic changes. The common drug-resistant mutations V82A and I84V alter residues forming the substrate-binding site. Eight crystal structures were refined at resolutions of 1.10–1.60 A ˚ .

Plant flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds, commonly found in vegeta-bles, fruits and many food sources that form a significant portion of our diet. These compounds have been shown to interact with several ATP-bind-ing cassette transporters that are linked with anticancer and antiviral drug resistance and, as such, may be beneficial in modulating drug resistance. This study investigates the interactions of six common polyphenols; querce-tin, silymarin, resveratrol, naringenin, daidzein and hesperetin with the multidrug-resistance-associated proteins, MRP1, MRP4 and MRP5. ...

Caspases are a family of cysteine proteases with roles in cytokine matur-ation or apoptosis. Caspase-2 was the first pro-apoptotic caspase identified, but its functions in apoptotic signal transduction are still being elucidated. This study examined the regulation of the activity of caspase-2 using recombinant proteins and a yeast-based system. Our data suggest that for human caspase-2 to be active its large and small subunits must be separ-ated. For maximal activity its prodomain must also be removed....

Juvenile hormones (JHs) of insects are sesquiterpenoids that regulate a great diversity of processes in development and reproduction. As yet the molecular modes of action of JH are poorly understood. TheMethoprene-tolerant (Met) gene of Drosophila melanogasterhas been found to be responsible for resistance to a JH analogue (JHA) insecticide, methoprene. Previous studies onMethave implicated its involvement in JH signaling, although direct evidence is lacking.
