A better understanding of drought response proteins may improve our understanding of the mechanisms underlying drought tolerance in sugarcane. In this research, drought-tolerant (K86-161) and drought-sensitive (B34-164) sugarcane cultivars were grown and exposed to drought stress. The changes in protein expression in leafs, leaf sheaths and roots were analyzed using proteomics techniques. Proteins...
We investigated the effects of dried fairy shrimp Streptocephalus sirindhornae meal (FS) on skin pigmentation and carotenoid deposition in flowerhorn cichlid. Six experimental diets including three treatments of FS at 10% (FS10), 20% (FS20) and 30% (FS30), two dried Spirulina sp. meal (SP) at 6% (SP6) and 12% (SP12), and a control diet (a basal diet without FS or SP) were offered for 90 days. The...
The adrenal gland requires stimuli from peptides derived from the ACTH precursor, pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), to maintain its tonic state. Studies have proposed that a specific postsecretional cleavage of the nonmitogenic N-terminal 16 kDa fragment, also known as pro-γ-melanotropin (pro-γ-MSH), is required, releasing shorter fragments that promote adrenal growth. Here, we provide evidence for this...
We report the cloning of a new gene family encoding six apolipoprotein L (apoL-I to -VI) proteins. The genes were identified as a cluster spanning a region of 619 kb on chromosome 22. Each apoL was found to share significant identity in its predicted amphipathic α helices while phylogenetic tree mapping showed the genes to be evolutionarily conserved. Tissue distribution by semiquantitative PCR revealed...
