Zinc fingers can be loosely defined as protein domains containing one or more tetrahedrally-
co-ordinated zinc ions whose role is to stabilise the structure rather than to be involved in …

Classical zinc finger (ZF) domains were thought to be confined to the eukaryotic kingdom
until the transcriptional regulator Ros protein was identified in Agrobacterium tumefaciens …

In this study, pectin based films including different amounts of sodium alginate were
prepared by casting method. All the films, with and without polyglycerol as plasticizer, were …

Bacterial adaptation is largely shaped by horizontal gene transfer, xenogeneic silencing
mediated by lineage-specific DNA bridgers (H-NS, Lsr2, MvaT and Rok), and various anti …

Methane emission by terrestrial invertebrates is restricted to millipedes, termites,
cockroaches, and scarab beetles. The arthropod-associated archaea known to date belong …

Foreign AT-rich genes drive bacterial adaptation to new niches while challenging the
existing regulation network. Here we report that MucR, a conserved regulator in α …

Zinc proteins constitute a very important portion of the large number of Metalloproteins
currently known. However, contrary to what happens with biological systems containing Fe …

Recent data indicate that cell cycle transcription in many alpha-Proteobacteria is executed
by at least three conserved functional modules in which pairs of antagonistic regulators act …

Nuclear receptors are the fundamental building blocks of gene expression regulation and
the focus of many drug targets. While binding to DNA, nuclear receptors act as transcription …

A new 1, 3-diderivative of calix [4] arene appended with hydroxymethyl salicylyl imine has
been synthesized and its ion recognition toward biologically relevant M n+ ions studied. The …
