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.

... Show MoreThis research asks what are negative social behaviours in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) raised by the talk shows on the (NRT) channel? Furthermore, it aims to identify the most significant themes addressed by talk shows on the (NRT) channel regarding negative social behaviours in the KRI by using the content analysis approach through non-random purposive sampling to understand the dialogue contents that dealt with this subject. This study has reached a set of results: through its talk shows, the (NRT) channel attempts to create a media vision about the spread of negative social behaviours in the KRI and stand up to the dangers associated with these behaviours. At the same time, those programs tried to marginalize the behaviours that
... Show MoreThe aim of this study was to provide an overall assessment to the efficiency of the Iraq stocks exchanges (ISE) through specifying well –known models .First, Fama's efficient market hypothesis as a contrary concept to the random walk hypothesis, was performed and it has been found that ISE follows the random process, so the price of the shares can't be predicated on the basis of past information. Second,we use a multifactor model, which so named multiple regression, to explore the link between ISE and the main economic indicators. our empirical analysis finds that every weak associations exists between major ISE measures and main economic indicators.
Background: Most primary Health Care Centers (PHCCs) in Iraq have a referral system records; however, this mechanism does not function well because of the lack of other requirements for an efficient referral system.
Objective: To assess the practice & opinion of doctors in PHCs toward the referral system, and to determine the doctors in PHC's commitment to referral system instructions and guidelines.
Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study with analytic elements was conducted in nine health directorates in Iraq, from the 1st October 2018 – 30th June 2019.One PHC was selected randomly form each sector in every governorate, A questionnaire was used to collect the required information.
... Show MoreA total of 30 specimens of house sparrow Passer domesticus biblicus Hartert, 1904 (15 females and 15 males) were collected from gardens of some houses in Baghdad city; all birds were dissected to identify the parasites in vesicle, gizzard, intestine, gall bladder and caecum. One species of trematodes Brachydistomum microscelis (Yamaguti, 1933) was found in the gall bladder and two species of cestodes Anonchotaenia globata (von Linstow, 1879) and Raillietina tetragona (Molin, 1858) were found in the small intestine of house sparrow. Morphologic and morphometric measurements were considered.
The genus Brachydistomum Travassos, 1944 is being recorded for the first time in Iraq in the gall bladder of house sparr
... Show MoreThe research problem revolves around the Iraqi public's use of digital television and cinematic websites، and their importance to the academic study and society، as it examines the public's relationship with these websites، usage habits، and the reasons for their interaction with them. And for the prevalence of this phenomenon of use، it was necessary to address the intensity، intentionality، and timing of use to theoretically root the subject of the study، which is one of the modern studies in Iraq and the Arab world. The survey approach، where the research was based on the theory of uses and gratifications that confer positivity and activity on the mass media audience.

... Show MoreThe soap content in biodiesel is an important challenge during the production and purification processing of biodiesel. Natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) have recently attracted considerable interest as an environmentally suitable substitute for traditional solvents in the biodiesel industry. This work investigates the soap removal from the contaminated biodiesel using NADES. Eight choline chloride‐based deep eutectic solvents (DESs) were screened using the conductor‐like screening model for real solvents (COSMO‐RS) to identify the most suitable solvent for soap removal and were validated experimentally. The effect of NADES molar ratio, NADES:biodiesel ratio, mixing speed and extraction ti
