Exploring the impact of variations in the mucolipin1 protein that result in mucolipidosis type 4 using the technique of molecular docking and dynamics simulation.

Mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV) is classified as an exceptionally autosomal recessive condition due to a change in MCOLN1 that encodes the mucolipin-1 protein. ML-1 is a membrane protein comprising 6 Trans regions, which are situated at the LELs, a serine lipase area, and a nuclear localization sign. The characteristic features of the ML4 patients are mental retardation and skeletal deformities due to an increase in lipid molecules in the brain, other tissues, and organs.

Evaluation of high temperature impacts and nanotechnology as a shield against temperature stress on tomatoes - A review.

Rising temperature due to changing climate significantly impacts the production of tomato. The morpho-physiological functions of tomato such as gas exchange, growth and development, flowering, fruit setting, quality, fruit size, weight that can influence the yield and production is drastically affected by higher temperatures. Among the growth stages of tomato, flowering and fruit setting stage is highly vulnerable to high temperature resulting in reduced flower numbers, increased flower abortion, stigma exertion, abnormal ovule, reduced pollen germination, pollen numbers, pollen tube development, pollen viability and increased male sterility.

Epidemiological study of hospital acquired acute kidney injury in critically ill and its effect on the survival.

In the intensive care unit (ICU), acute kidney injury (AKI) is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality. Hospital-acquired acute kidney injury (HAAKI) is AKI developing after 48 h. We aimed to study the development of AKI and its associated risk factors.

Identification and characterisation of dextran produced by a novel high yielding Weissella cibaria Fiplydextran strain.

An exopolysaccharide (EPS)-producing bacterial strain was isolated from fermented soy milk and identified as Weissella cibaria strain Fiplydextran through morphological, biochemical and 16S rDNA sequence analysis. Here, we report the optimisation of cultural conditions for the organism to achieve maximum EPS production, along with its molecular characterisation, functional properties, and prebiotic potential. The exceptionally high EPS yield (0.
