Optimization of transfection of green fluorescent protein in pursuing mesenchymal stem cells in vivo
(Turkish Society of Hematology, 2008)
Objective: Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) has been used as a marker of gene expression and a single cell marker in living organisms in cell biology studies. The important areas that GFP is used are expression levels of ...
Cloning, expression, and activity analysis of human cathepsin C in the yeast pichia pastoris
(TÜBİTAK, 2017)
The yeast Pichia pastoris expression system was investigated for the production of human cathepsin C (CatC) recombinant protein. The full-length CatC cDNA, corresponding to amino acids 12-475, was synthesized from interleukin-2 ...
Deep sequencing reveals two Jurkat subpopulations with distinct miRNA profiles during camptothecin-induced apoptosis
(TUBITAK, 2018)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs of about 19-25 nt that regulate gene expression posttranscriptionally under various cellular conditions, including apoptosis. The miRNAs involved in modulation of apoptotic events ...
Characterization of the BETA1 gene, which might play a role in Beta vulgaris subsp. Maritima salt tolerance
(TÜBİTAK, 2017)
Salinity stress has a negative impact on plant growth, which affects homeostasis and productivity. The uptake of nonessential salt ions changes the osmotic balance of the cell and causes dehydration. Higher plants develop ...
Alteration of protein localization and intracellular calcium content due to connexin26 D50A and A88V mutations
(Türk Biyokimya Derneği, 2017-04)
Introduction: Connexins (Cx) play essential roles in cellular homeostasis by forming gap junctions and non-junctional hemichannels. In vitro characterization of Cx26 mutations causing keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness (KID) ...
Proteomic changes during boron tolerance in barley (Hordeum vulgare) and the role of vacuolar proton-translocating ATPase subunit E
(TÜBİTAK, 2011)
Boron is an essential micronutrient for plants and animals; however, it can be toxic when present at high concentrations. The purpose of this study was to understand the mechanisms of boron tolerance in the Turkish barley ...
Comparative genetics of crop plant domestication and evolution
(TÜBİTAK, 2003)
Domesticated species differ from their wild ancestors and relatives for a set of traits that is known as the domestication syndrome. The most important syndrome traits include growth habit, flowering time, seed dispersal, ...
The aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans heat shock protein GroEL interacts directly with human peripheral blood T cells
(TÜBİTAK, 2016)
Heat shock family protein GroEL of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans (Aa) has antigenic properties. We previously demonstrated that A. actinomycetemcomitans GroEL-like protein affects human CD4 T cells by converting ...
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis for antioxidant and agronomically important traits in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum)
(TÜBİTAK, 2011)
Tomato is one of the most widely produced and consumed vegetable crops worldwide. Plant breeders have usually focused on improvement of horticulturally important traits such as yield, fruit size, shape and colour. With ...
Application of EST-SSRS to examine genetic diversity in eggplant and its close relatives
(TÜBİTAK, 2011)
Within the genus Solanum, the term 'eggplant' encompasses several cultivated species that are used for food and, to a lesser extent, for medicine. Th e use of one common name to describe more than one species and the ...
