We have transferred two channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus growth hormone cDNA constructs (opAFP-ccGH and rtMT-ccGH) driven by the ocean pout Zoarces americanus antifreeze protein promoter (opAFP) or rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss metallothionein promoter (rtMT) via electroporation to channel catfish to produce transgenic catfish by introducing additional copies of growth hormone cDNA and compered the inheritance of the GH transgenesis‚ and growth rate. Most of the DNA constructs are lost during

(TALE) homeodomain proteins family and are highly conserved transcription regulators. TALE homeodomain proteins include the PBC and the MEINOX sub-families. MEINOX proteins form heterodimer complexes with PBC proteins. Heterodimerization is crucial to DNA binding and for nuclear localization. The PKNOX/ PREP has two members in mice and humans‚ known as PKNOX1/ PREP1 and PKNOX2/ PREP2. Sequence comparisons indicate that PREP1 and PREP2 define a novel sub-family of MEINOX proteins. PKNOX1 is composed

When a cell (or its plasma membrane) is severely damaged‚ the membrane becomes permeable to virtually everything‚ and substances flow into and out of the cell freely. This phenomenon is evident when someone has been severely burned. Precious fluids‚ proteins‚ and ions "weep" from the damaged cells. 3.3 Hypertonic solutions are sometimes infused intravenously into the bloodstream of patients who are edematous (swollen because their tissues retain water). This is done to draw excess water out of the

things. Chapter three is all about how molecule machines operate a cell. According to the book‚ these molecules are mostly made up of proteins and proteins carry out chemical reactions. They are very multitalented but they typically have one use or at most a very little. Each cell has thousands and thousands of proteins; there can be from 50 to 1‚000 proteins in a single chain. These chains come in various lengths and every link has very different properties. Some may have a positive charge and

that focuses on proteins. The goal of the lab is to map the proteins of the nuclear envelope using BioID. This may sound like a simple goal but figuring out where each protein is located but it is a daunting task. With the lab trying to map the proteins‚ it is necessary to develop efficient ways of seeing how proteins interact. In the past years of the Roux lab‚ they have developed a system to see which proteins interact with other proteins‚ through a slightly mutated protein‚ BioID (BirA).

used were 2‚4‚7‚9 and 10. All of these solutions affected the beetroot‚ but the most acidic solutions were the ones that did the most damage to the membrane. This is because the ph affects the proteins within the phospho lipid bi-layer. The acidic ph breaks the hydrogen bonds therefore denaturing the proteins and allowing beetroot pigment to secrete form the cell. 7. The ethanol solutions that were used were 11%‚ 25% and 50% ethanol. The beetroot cell was almost immediately affected by the 50% alcohol
