...Show More Authors

The aim of study To purify GPCR from a local strain of S. cerevisiae using Ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography techniques , by packing materials for columns which will be chosen of low cost comparing to the already used in published researches, which depend on the costly affinity chromatography and other expensive methods of purification. Local strain of S. cerevisiae chosen for extraction and purification of G-protein coupled receptor (GPCR) .The strains were obtained from biology department in Al- Mosul University, Iraq. The isolated colony was activated on Yeast Extract Pepton Dextrose Broth (YEPDB) and incubated at 30 C˚ for 24 h .Loop fully of the yeast culture was transferred to (10ml) of yeast extract peptone glucose agar (YEPGA) slant , then incubated at 30C˚for 24h , after that it was stored at 4C˚ ,the yeast cultures were reactivated and persevered after each two weeks period. S.cerevisiae was identified by morphological, microscopic characterization and biochemical test . The GPCR that extract from whole cell of S.cerevisiae was purified by ion exchange chromatography using DEAE-Sepharose ,the bound proteins (negatively charged) were then eluted using gradient concentration of NaCl ranged between( 0.1 -0.5M). Gel filtration chromatography using Sepharose 6B was applied as a second step of purification. The optical density for each fraction was measured at 280 nm by UV-VS spectrophotometer then the GPCR concentration was determined by using ELISA Kit . The fractions which gave the highest absorbance and concentration of GPCR were collected .The molecular weight of GPCR was determined by gel filtration chromatography using blue dextrin solution. Standard curve was plotted between log of molecular weight for standard protein and the ratio of Ve/Vo of GPCR . The purity of the GPCR that extracted and purified from whole cell of S, cerevisiae were carried out by using SDS-PAGE electrophoresis . In ion exchange chromatography the fraction were collected with 5 ml tube at a flow rate 0.5 ml/ min and eluted with gradient (0.1-0.5M) of sodium chloride solution. Two proteins peaks appeared after eluted by the gradient concentration of sodium chloride, while no protein peaks appeared in the washing fractions. The GPCR concentration was measured in the fractions of these two protein peaks, data indicated that GPCR located in the first protein peak (eluted at 0.1M of NaCl) at fraction numbers between 3 and 9, the maximum concentration of GPCR was 9.281 with specific activity 71.58(ng/mg)protein , 3.125 purification folds and72.9(%) yield while the second peaks (eluted at 0.4 M of NaCl) don't give any concentration for GPCR, thus its neglected. Gel filtration chromatography was used as second step of purification which applied by using sepharose 6B. Results show single active protein peaks appeared that identical with the peak of GPCR at fractions numbers(29-35). The maximum concentration of GPCR was 9.082 (ng/ml)was observed in these fractions. The specific activity for these fractions was 151.37 (ng/mg) protein with 6.608 purification folds and 39.64 (%) yield. The present study a chive a relatively high purification of GPCR from whole cell of a local strain S. cerevisiae with fold purification 6.608 and a yield of 39.64 % and molecular weight about~33KD.

Validety of total laryngectomy Under local anaesthesia
...Show More Authors

BackgroundCarcinoma of the larynx represent 10% of head & neck malignancies. The treatment of advanced carcinoma of larynx may include partial or total laryngectomy, with or without laser , radiotherapy,and or chemotherapy . Carcinoma of the larynx usually affect old age , heavy smoker with possible risk of pulmonary diseases & ischemic heart disease , which add risk to the general anaesthetic complication operative & postoperative - Objectives this study was designed to assess the feasibility of total laryngectomy under local anaesthesia in medically unfit patients for general anaesthesia & to re-establish practice doing total laryngectomy under local anaesthesia in those patients.

Electrochemical Properties of Natural Sensitizer from Garcinia mangostana and Archidendron pauciflorum Pericarps for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell (DSSC) Application
...Show More Authors

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) create imitation photosynthesis by using chemical reactions to produce electricity from sunlight. DSSC has been pursued in numerous studies due to its capability to achieve efficiencies of up to 15% with artificial photosensitizer in diffuse light. However, artificial photosensitizers present a limitation because of the complex processing of metal compound. Therefore, various types of sensitizers were developed and synthesized to surpass the artificial sensitizer performances such as natural sensitizers from bio-based materials including plants, due to simple processing techniques and low environmental impact. Thus, this study examines the potential and properties of natural sensitizers from the was

Expression of Heat Shock Protein 70 in thyroid gland tumors
...Show More Authors

Heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) is a crucial protein with vital biological tasks in cell continuation of life. The variation of HSP70 activation occurs as a consequence of stress that includes temperature states, toxicity, poisoning with heavy metals, and tumor-related conditions. One of the master jobs of the HSP family is the suppression of caspase-mediated apoptosis signals. A high level of the expression of HSP70 is accountable for tumorigenesis and resistance against chemotherapeutic drugs. For this reason, the detection of HSP70 may help to diagnose cancerous diseases. From the other side, targeting this chaperone might help in treatment by maintaining late caspase-dependent events. This study was conducted to detect the presenc

Production and Partial Purification of Heat-Stable Enterotoxin (A) Produced by Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli
...Show More Authors

A total of (25) stool samples were collected from children and adults (2- 4) years old suffering from diarrhea to isolate E. coli strains that produce heat-stable enterotoxin a (STa), and after performing microscopic examination, cultural characterization and biochemical identification only (11) isolates showed positive E. coli. STa activity was estimated by using suckling mouse assay (SMA) and from these (11) isolates only (5) showed STa activity and the one with the highest STa activity was selected for large scale production of STa, which was followed by partial purification using ion-exchange chromatography (normal phase) using DEAE sephadex A-50 column. After purification and determination of protein concentration by using the standard
