Retrovirus Insect Repeller morphogenesis entails assembly of Gag proteins and the viral genome on the host plasma membrane, acquisition of the viral membrane and envelope proteins through budding, and formation of the core through the maturation process.Although in both immature and mature retroviruses, Gag and capsid proteins are organized as para
Introduction: There has been an increasing secular trend in the prevalence of overweight and obesity in developing countries.The prevalence reported among children and adolescents of some metro cities in India are comparable to that in some developed countries.Westernization of culture, rapid mushrooming of fast food joints, lack of physical activi
The anterior thalamic nucleus (ATN) is thought to play an important role in a brain network involving the hippocampus and neocortex, which enables human memories to be formed.However, its small size and location deep within the brain have impeded direct investigation in humans with non-invasive techniques.Here we provide direct evidence for a funct
Radiation therapy plays an important role in almost every cancer treatment.However, radiation toxicity to normal tissues, mainly due to the generation of reactive free radicals, has limited the efficacy of radiotherapy in clinical practice.Curcumin has been reported to possess Cups significant antitumor properties.Although curcumin can sensitize ca
ProSAAS is the precursor for some of the most abundant peptides found in mouse brain and other tissues, including peptides named SAAS, PEN, and LEN.Both SAAS and LEN are found in big and little forms due to differential processing.Initial processing of proSAAS is mediated by furin (and/or furin-like enzymes) and carboxypeptidase D, while the smalle
