DIFFERENTIAL AFFINITY CHROMATOGRAPHY COUPLED TO MASS SPECTROMETRY: A SUITABLE TOOL TO IDENTIFY COMMON BINDING PROTEINS OF A BROAD-RANGE ANTIMICROBIAL PEPTIDE DERIVED FROM LEUCINOSTATIN

Leucinostatins are antimicrobial peptides with a broad range of activities against infectious agents as well as mammalian cells.The leucinostatin-derivative peptide ZHAWOC_6027 (peptide 6027) was tested in vitro and in vivo for activity against the intracellular apicomplexan parasite Toxoplasma gondii.While highly efficacious in vitro (EC50 = 2 nM)

In many political elections, the electorate appears to be a composite of partisan and independent voters.Given that partisans are not likely to convert to a different party, an important goal for a political party could be to mobilize independent voters toward the party with the help of strong leadership, mass media, partisans, and the effects of p

In the search of alternatives for controlling Aethina tumida Murray, we recently proposed the BAA trap which uses boric acid and an attractant which mimics the process of fermentation caused by Kodamaea ohmeri in the hive.This yeast is excreted in the feces of A.tumida causing the fermentation of pollen and honey of infested hives and releasing com

Primary hyperthyroidism is a rarely diagnosed endocrinopathy in equids and there have been no previous reports of structural and herbstonne black-eyed susan functional cardiac changes associated with hyperthyroidism in these species.This case report investigates a 20-year-old mule gelding that presented for a three-month history of thin body condit
