The myocardium utilizes a platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (Pdgfra)-phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling cascade to steer toward the midline during zebrafish heart tube formation.

Coordinated cell movement is a fundamental process in organ formation. During heart development, bilateral myocardial precursors collectively move toward the midline (cardiac fusion) to form the primitive heart tube. Extrinsic influences such as the adjacent anterior endoderm are known to be required for cardiac fusion.

SARS-CoV-2 Burden in Wastewater and its Elimination Using Disinfection.

Background: Pathogenic viruses have been abundant and diverse in wastewater, reflecting the pattern of infection in humans. Human feces, urine, and perhaps other washouts that frequently circulate in sewage systems may contaminate wastewater with SARS-CoV-2. It's crucial to effectively disinfect wastewater since poorly handled wastewater could put the population at risk of infection.

The myocardium utilizes Pdgfra-PI3K signaling to steer towards the midline during heart tube formation.

Coordinated cell movement is a fundamental process in organ formation. During heart development, bilateral myocardial precursors collectively move towards the midline (cardiac fusion) to form the primitive heart tube. Along with extrinsic influences such as the adjacent anterior endoderm which are known to be required for cardiac fusion, we previously showed that the platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (Pdgfra) is also required.

Screening and Identification of Thermotolerant and Osmotolerant BKHE Isolated from Kinema of Eastern Nepal for Alkaline Protease Production.

Alkaline protease is one of the most important industrial enzymes which are excessively used in the detergent industry, food industry, feed industry, pharmaceutical industry, leather industry, etc. 60% of the produced alkaline protease is consumed by the detergent industry alone. In the present study, bacterial isolates that can produce alkaline protease for purpose of bio-detergent were screened among the isolates isolated from kinema (an alkaline fermented food of eastern Nepal).

Structure and Function of Major SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV Proteins.

SARS-CoV-2 virus, the causative agent of COVID-19 pandemic, has a genomic organization consisting of 16 nonstructural proteins (nsps), 4 structural proteins, and 9 accessory proteins. Relative of SARS-CoV-2, SARS-CoV, has genomic organization, which is very similar. In this article, the function and structure of the proteins of SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV are described in great detail.
