Cell death and acid phosphatase activity in the regenerating planarian Polycelis tenuis Iijima.

Only registered users can translate articles

A combination of microscopical, cytochemical, and biochemical techniques have been employed to study the changes occurring during the first seven days of blastema formation and regeneration after decapitation in adult Polycelis tenuis worms. Fine structural data reveal evidence of cell

Effects of prey, pitcher age, and microbes on acid phosphatase activity in fluid from pitchers of Sarracenia purpurea (Sarraceniaceae).

Only registered users can translate articles

Carnivory in pitcher plants generally involves digestion of prey, by the plant itself, by symbionts, or both. While symbionts appear to be important in the digestion of prey in Sarracenia purpurea, the importance of pitcher-derived enzymes is less well documented. Our goal was to reduce microbial

Use of the p-nitrophenyl phosphate method for the demonstration of acid phosphatase during starvation and cell autolysis in the planarian Polycelis tenuis Iijima.

Only registered users can translate articles

Acid phosphatase activity is demonstrated employing p-nitrophenyl phosphate as substrate and lead acetate as coupler. The fine structural localization of the enzyme in starved planarian tissues is described. The method is used to pin-point starvation - induced acid phosphatase activity in relation

The fine structural localization of alkaline phosphatase in Polycelis tenuis (Iijima).

In situ enzyme activity in the dissolved and particulate fraction of the fluid from four pitcher plant species of the genus Nepenthes.

Only registered users can translate articles

The genus Nepenthes, a carnivorous plant, has a pitcher to trap insects and digest them in the contained fluid to gain nutrient. A distinctive character of the pitcher fluid is the digestive enzyme activity that may be derived from plants and dwelling microbes. However, little is known about in situ

Carnivorous Nutrition in Pitcher Plants (Nepenthes spp.) via an Unusual Complement of Endogenous Enzymes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Plants belonging to the genus Nepenthes are carnivorous, using specialized pitfall traps called "pitchers" that attract, capture, and digest insects as a primary source of nutrients. We have used RNA sequencing to generate a cDNA library from the Nepenthes pitchers and applied it to mass

Seasonal occurrence and toxicity of Microcystis spp. and Oscillatoria tenuis in the Lebna Dam, Tunisia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Physicochemical and biological water quality, including the total microcystin concentrations, was investigated for the first time from January to December 2005 in the Lebna Dam, Tunisia. Microcystin levels and characterization of the different microcystin variants present were measured by protein

Studies on Alternaria allergens. V. Comparative biochemical and immunological studies of three isolates of Alternaria tenuis cultured on synthetic media.

Only registered users can translate articles

Six extracts were prepared from Alternaria tenuis isolated ATCC 6663, ATCC 16086 and DAOM (Agriculture Canada) 183905 grown separately on two synthetic media, revised tobacco and Czapek's, and their biochemical and immunological properties were examined. High-performance liquid chromatography

The effects of starvation on the planarian worm Polycelis tenuis Iijima.

Only registered users can translate articles

Employing a combination of microscopical, biochemical and autoradiographic techniques, the primary effects of starvation on adult polycelis tenuis have been studied. Over a five week period of starvation there is on average a 32% decrease in the size of the organism. This decrease is contributed to

Two new naphthalene glucosides and other bioactive compounds from the carnivorous plant Nepenthes mirabilis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Two new naphthalene diglucosides named nepenthosides A (1) and B (2), together with eleven known compounds (3-13), were isolated from the carnivorous plant Nepenthes mirabilis. The structures of these compounds were elucidated based on extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D- and 2D-NMR, and

Identification of novel metabolic interactions controlling carbon flux from xylose to ethanol in natural and recombinant yeasts.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Unlike xylose-converting natural yeasts, recombinant strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae expressing the same xylose assimilation pathway produce under anaerobic conditions xylitol rather than ethanol from xylose at low specific xylose conversion rates. Despite intense research efforts

Antidiabetic compounds from Sarracenia purpurea used traditionally by the Eeyou Istchee Cree First Nation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Through ethnobotanical surveys, the CIHR Team in Aboriginal Antidiabetic Medicines identified 17 boreal forest plants stemming from the pharmacopeia of the Cree First Nations of Eeyou Istchee (James Bay region of Northern Quebec) that were used traditionally against diabetes symptoms. The leaves of

Regulation of Hydrolytic Enzyme Activity in Aquatic Microbial Communities Hosted by Carnivorous Pitcher Plants.

Only registered users can translate articles

Carnivorous pitcher plants Sarracenia purpurea host diverse eukaryotic and bacterial communities which aid in insect prey digestion, but little is known about the functional processes mediated by the microbial communities. This study aimed to connect pitcher community diversity with functional

Signal transduction in the carnivorous plant Sarracenia purpurea. Regulation of secretory hydrolase expression during development and in response to resources.

Only registered users can translate articles

Carnivory in plants has developed as an evolutionary adaptation to nutrient-poor environments. A significant investment of the resources of a carnivorous plant is committed to producing the traps, attractants, and digestive enzymes needed for the carnivory. The cost:benefit ratio of carnivory can be

[Searching for genetic markers--in the fields of forensic medicine and human genetics].

Only registered users can translate articles

Research on genetic markers in the fields of forensic medicine and human genetics did not begin in earnest until 1968. Study of an extended family in Wakayama Prefecture resulted in the discovery of the variant Bm type in the ABO blood group system. This family of nearly 40 members composed of Group
