Lead pollution of the environment poses a major global threat to the ecosystem. Bacterial bioremediation offers a promising alternative to traditional methods for removing these pollutants, that are often hindered by various limitations. Our research focused on isolating lead-resistant bacteria from industrial wastewater generated by heavily lead-containing industries.

B12D family proteins are transmembrane proteins that contain the B12D domain involved in membrane trafficking. Plants comprise several members of the B12D family, but these members' numbers and specific functions are not determined. This study aims to identify and characterize the members of B12D protein family in plants.

Ribosomal L18/L5e (RL18/L5e) is a member of the ribosomal L18/L5e protein family, which has an essential function in translation of mRNA into protein in the large ribosomal subunit. In this study, was isolated and sequenced from local (L.) R.

HORMA-containing proteins include various proteins that contain HORMA domain and play important role in the regulation of cell cycle in eukaryotes. Many types of HORMA-containing proteins are found in eukaryotes, but their role in prokaryotes has not been proven.

Methods: A prospective cohort study of 390 adult patients with Canadian triage category III and IV who visited ECC at King Abdulaziz Medical City, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, between 1 July and end of September 2011 was conducted. All patients were followed up from the time of arrival at the front desk of ECC until being seen by a doctor, and were then interviewed.
Cell cycle regulation mechanisms appear to be conserved throughout eukaryotic evolution. One of the important proteins involved in the regulation of cell cycle processes is retinoblastoma-related protein (RBR), which is a negative regulator of cell cycle progression, controlling the G1/S transition in plants and animals. In this study, we present the cloning and genomic structure of a putative SlRBR gene in the tomato Solanum lycopersicum L.
