Yeast tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (yTyrRS) has been crystallized by the vapor diffusion method in the presence of its cognate tRNA(Tyr). The crystals belong to a tetragonal space group P4(1)2(1)2 with cell dimensions of a = b = 63.85 Angstrom, and c = 330.3 Angstrom. The asymmetric unit contains one molecule each of yTyrRS and tRNA(Tyr) (one-half of a 2:2 complex). X-ray diffraction data have been collected up to 2.5 Angstrom resolution.

Unlabelled: This study aimed to evaluate the potential therapeutic effects of () growing in the northern region of India, having differences in the phytochemicals, nutritional content, antimicrobial and antioxidant properties by reducing power assay (RPA), 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay, phosphomolybdate assay, and antidiabetic potential by α-amylase assay with change in the geographical location. Outcomes of the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis revealed that phytochemicals such as piperine (46.69%), kusunokinin (8.

Neanderthal and Denisovan hybridisation with modern humans has generated a non-random genomic distribution of introgressed regions, the result of drift and selection dynamics. Cross-species genomic incompatibility and more efficient removal of slightly deleterious archaic variants have been proposed as selection-based processes involved in the post-hybridisation purge of archaic introgressed regions. Both scenarios require the presence of functionally different alleles across Homo species onto which selection operated differently according to which populations hosted them, but only a few of these variants have been pinpointed so far.

During the past decade, genetic code expansion has been proved to be a powerful tool for protein studies and engineering. As the key part, a series of orthogonal pairs have been developed to site-specifically incorporate hundreds of noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) into proteins by using bacteria, yeast, mammalian cells, animals, or plants as hosts. Among them, the pair of tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA from Methanococcus jannaschii and the pair of pyrrolysyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA from Methanosarcina species are the most popular ones.

A new bisbenzylisoquinoline named as chondrofolinol and four reported compounds were isolated and characterized from the roots of Stapf. Anti-inflammatory, anti-pyretic, and leishmanicidal studies were performed against carrageenan-induced paw edema, yeast-induced pyrexia, and the promastigotes of , respectively. The new compound significantly reduced the paw volume in carrageenan-induced paw edema and rectal temperature in yeast-induced pyrexia at 10 and 20 mg/ kg of body weight.
