Unraveling the interaction between a glycolytic regulator protein EhPpdk and an anaphase promoting complex protein EhApc10: yeast two hybrid screening, in vitro binding assays and molecular simulation study.

The anaphase promoting complex (APC or cyclosome) is a major ubiquitin ligase that coordinates mitotic and G1 progression, acting as a major regulator of chromosome segregation. While the human APC contains fourteen subunits, it is yet to be explored in the pathogen Entamoeba histolytica. Our study reveals the existence of a single functional Apc10 homolog in E.

Evaluation of probiotic efficacy of indigenous yeast strain, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Y-89 isolated from a traditional fermented beverage of West Bengal, India having protective effect against DSS-induced colitis in experimental mice.

Increasing awareness regarding health promotion and disease prevention has driven inclusion of fermented foods and beverages in the daily diet. These are the enormous sources of beneficial microbes, probiotics. This study aims to isolate yeast strains having probiotic potential and effectivity against colitis.

Efficient antimicrobial applications of two novel supramolecular metallogels derived from a l(+)-tartaric acid low molecular weight gelator.

Novel metallogels were synthesized using l(+)-tartaric acid as a gelator, along with cadmium(ii)-acetate and mercury(ii)-acetate in ,-dimethyl formamide at room temperature. Rheological analyses confirmed the mechanical stability of Cd(ii)- and Hg(ii)-metallogels under varying conditions. Characterization through EDX mapping and FESEM imaging provided insights into their chemical constituents and microstructural features.

Two novel low molecular weight gelator-driven supramolecular metallogels efficient in antimicrobial activity applications.

A remarkable ultrasonication technique was successfully employed to create two novel metallogels using citric acid as a low molecular weight gelator, in combination with cadmium(ii)-acetate and mercury(ii)-acetate dissolved in ,-dimethyl formamide at room temperature and under ambient conditions. The mechanical properties of the resulting Cd(ii)- and Hg(ii)-metallogels were rigorously examined through rheological analyses, which revealed their robust mechanical stability under varying angular frequencies and shear strains. Detailed characterization of the chemical constituents within these metallogels was accomplished through EDX mapping experiments, while microstructural features were visualized using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) images.
