Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) has created a global pandemic that is devastating human lives, public healthcare systems, and global economies.Multiple effective and safe COVID-19 vaccines have been developed at an unprecedented speed due to the efforts of the scientific community, and collaboration between the federal government and pharmaceutical com
Facile Synthesis and Characterization of a Bromine-Substituted (Chloromethyl)Pyridine Precursor towards the Immobilization of Biomimetic Metal Ion Chelates on Functionalized Carbons
Multidentate ligands involving tethered pyridyl groups coordinated to transition metal ions have been frequently used to mimic the 3-histidine (3H), 2-histidine-1-carboxylate bostik mvp (2H1C) brace motifs or other combinations of histidine and carboxylate endogenous ligating residues found in bioinorganic metalloenzymes.It is of interest to immobi
Growth resilience to weather variation in commercial free-ranging chickens in Ethiopia
Abstract Background The poultry industry in sub-Saharan Africa is a rapidly developing sector mostly based on smallholder farming.Increased demand for poultry-derived products, driven by the growing economy and population, has intensified importations of highly productive exotic breeds and crossbreeding with local ecotypes.However, commercial chick
Inhibition of Glutamine Synthetase by Phosphinothricin Leads to Transcriptome Reprograming in Root Nodules of Medicago truncatula
Glutamine synthetase (GS) is a vital enzyme for the assimilation of ammonia into amino acids in higher plants.In legumes, GS plays a crucial role here in the assimilation of the ammonium released by nitrogen-fixing bacteria in root nodules, constituting an important metabolic knob controlling the nitrogen (N) assimilatory pathways.To identify new r
