In this study, a pectin was extracted from Akebia trifoliata var. australis fruit peel waste using water solution, and its physicochemical properties were evaluated. The pectin was rich in galacturonic acid (GalA) content (76.68%). The degree of este

Our laboratory has previously cloned and purified a protein named PRAP (prolactin receptor-associated protein) that was shown to be a novel 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD) enzyme with dual activity. This enzyme, renamed HSD17B7 or PRAP/17be

The Kruppel-associated box (KRAB) domain is a transcription repression module from the largest family of transcriptional regulators encoded by higher vertebrates. We developed a drug-controllable regulation system based on an artificial KRAB-containi

Prolactin receptor-associated protein (PRAP) originally cloned in our laboratory was shown to be a novel, luteal isoform of 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 7 (17βHSD7). In this study, we cloned the promoter region of rat PRAP/17βHSD7 and investig

Salmon calcitonin S-sulfonated analog (abbreviated as [S–SO 3 − ]rsCT) was prepared by introducing two sulfonic groups into the side chains of Cys1 and Cys7 of recombinant salmon calcitonin. The hypocalcemic potency of this open-chain analog is 5

In this paper, ZnS/Ag/ZnS nano-multilayers for transparent electrodes in flat display application have been prepared by thermal evaporation in vacuum. The sheet resistance of the films was low as 3 Ω/cm2. And they can be applied as good selective fi

The rat 20 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20 alpha-HSD) is an enzyme responsible for the catabolism of progesterone to the inactive 20 alpha-hydroxprogesterone. We have previously shown that the expression of this enzyme is not regulated by post

The enzyme, rat ovarian 20α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (20αHSD), plays a central role in luteolysis and parturition. It catalyzes the reduction of progesterone, leading to the formation of progestationally inactive steroid, 20α-hydroxypregn-4-en

Methods for generating loss-of-function mutations, such as conventional or conditional gene knockout, are widely used in deciphering gene function in vivo. By contrast, inducible and reversible regulation of endogenous gene expression has not been we

Prolactin (PRL), a pleiotropic hormone essential for maintenance of corpus luteum (CL) function and pregnancy, transduces its signal through two types of receptors, a short form (PRLR-S) and a long form (PRLR-L). Both types of receptors are expressed
