The molecular weight of the luciferase, according to three different methods, is between 52,000 and 57,000;
molecular activities of luciferase for the bioluminescence reaction and for the hydrolysis of oxy - luciferin are 1600 and 2 per minute, respectively.
Using small - molecule inhibitors to eliminate the activity of the proteins produced by the bird - specific, median signaling zone in chicken embryos, the researchers were able to induce the
ancestral molecular activity and the ancestral anatomy.
«Use of noise signals to
identify molecular activity -LRB-(interaction) or (active orbital)-RRB- is attractive for developing advanced sensing devices,» explains corresponding author Megumi Akai - Kasaya.
Research shows that Reishi's cellular and
molecular activities also provide protection against a long list of deadly microorganisms — including those causing human immunodeficiency (HIV) and hepatitis B (HBV), among others.
The LINCS program aims to catalog and analyze cellular function and
molecular activity in response to perturbing agents - such as drugs and genetic factors - that are potentially disruptive to cells.
FIC proteins have a broad spectrum of
molecular activities.
In the September Genome Biology and Evolution, Rio and her colleagues published a study of
the molecular activity of both tsetse flies and their Wigglesworthia in the wild.
The team used a combination of experiments to zero in on
the molecular activity of melittin at the «minimal inhibitory concentration» (MIC), the lowest concentration that's been shown to slow the growth of target cell populations.
Those random bursts of
molecular activity can drive all manner of cellular decisions, even the identity the cell chooses to take.
Our research aims at understanding the spatial and temporal aspects of
molecular activities that drive cellular processes.
