WDR38, A NOVEL EQUATORIAL SEGMENT PROTEIN, INTERACTS WITH THE GTPASE PROTEIN RAB19 AND GOLGI PROTEIN GM130 TO PLAY ROLES IN ACROSOME BIOGENESIS

WDR38, a novel equatorial segment protein, interacts with the GTPase protein RAB19 and Golgi protein GM130 to play roles in acrosome biogenesis

The WD40-repeat containing (WDR) proteins are enriched in the testis and play important roles in spermatogenesis.In the present study, we investigate the expression profile of WDR38, a novel member of the WDR protein family, in humans and mice.RT-qPCR (reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction) results demonstrate that WDR38 mRNA

Influence of roasting on the thermal degradation pathway in the glucosinolates of fragrant rapeseed oil: Implications to flavour profiles

Purified desulphated glucosinolates (GSLs) were subjected to thermal treatment in model systems without interference to investigate the formation of volatile components derived from GSLs only.Desulphated progoitrin (PRO), desulphated gluconapin (GNA), and desulphated glucobrassicanapin (GBN) were isolated from rapeseed (Brassica napus L.).Their str

First-line anti-tubercular drug resistance of mycobacterial strains from re-treatment cases that were smear-positive at 4 th month onwards under the Revised National Tuberculosis Control Program

Background: Programmatic management of drug-resistant TB (PMDT) under the RNTCP is being implemented Napkin Holder in West Bengal in a phased manner since 2011.During the initial years MDR-TB cases were identified based on criteria A.This study examines the first line anti-tubercular drug resistance pattern of mycobacteria cultured from sputum samp
