Expression of Treponema denticola Oligopeptidase B in Escherichia coli
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 2004-05)
Treponema denticola is a small anaerobic spirochete often isolated from periodontal lesions and closely associated with periodontal diseases. This bacterium possesses a particular arginine peptidase activity (previously ...
Effects of rifampicin, streptolydigin and actinomycin D on the replication of Col E1 plasmid DNA in Escherichia coli
(Elsevier, 1973-04-15)
We recently reported (Clewell et al., 1972) on an inhibitory effect of rifampicin on Col E1 plasmid replication. The present study represents a further characterization of this phenomenon as well as a study of the effects ...
Amino acid sequence of pheromone-inducible surface protein in Enterococcus faecalis, that is encoded on the conjugative plasmid pPD1
(Elsevier, 1990-07-02)
The major pheromone-inducible protein, PD78, believed to contribute to bacterial conjugation, was purified from Enterococcus (formerly Streptococcus) faecalis cells containing the plasmid pPD1. A cloned EcoRI-Bg/II 3.6-kbp ...
Isolation and structure of the Streptococcus faecalis sex pheromone, cAM373
(Elsevier, 1986-09-29)
The Streptococcus faecalis sex pheromone, cAM373, which induces a mating response of donor cells harboring plasmid pAM373 and is also produced by Staphylococcus aureus, was isolated and its structure determined. Supernatant ...
Neuroregulation of protein synthesis in odontoblasts of the first molar of the rat after wounding
(Springer-Verlag, 1987-04)
Odontoblasts respond to occlusal trauma by increased elaboration of a matrix which is subsequently calcified to form reparative dentin. The purpose of the present study was to analyze quantitatively and compare the ability ...
Evaluation of the effects of sensory denervation on osteoblasts by 3 H-proline autoradiography
(Springer-Verlag, 1981-06)
The inferior alveolar nerve was unilaterally resected in 30-day-old mice; other animals were unilaterally sham-operated. At 15, 30, 60, 90, or 150 days after surgery, the mice were injected with 2μCi of 3 H-proline (sp. ...
Reinvestigation of the roles of the carboxyl groups of glutathione with yeast glyoxalase I : Implications as to the mechanism and coenzymic role of glutathione
(Elsevier, 1986-07-07)
A number of carboxyl-substituted s-blocked glutathiones have been shown to be competitive inhibitors of yeast glyoxalase I at 25[deg]C, pH 6.6. Amidation of the glycyl carboxyl group of S-(p-bromobenzyl)glutathione has no ...
Isolation and structure of the bacterial sex pheromone, cAD1, that induces plasmid transfer in Streptococcus faecalis
(Elsevier, 1984-12-03)
The Streptococcus faecalis sex pheromone cAD1, which is involved in the conjugative transfer of the hemolysin plasmid pAD1, has been isolated and its structure determined. Its Mr is 818 and its amino acid sequence is ...
Effects of denervation on 3 H-fucose incorporation by odontoblasts in the mouse incisor
(Springer-Verlag, 1983-03)
The present study was designed to determine the effects of denervation on glycoprotein synthesis in the predentinal matrix of the mouse incisor. The inferior alveolar nerve (IAN), superior cervical ganglion (SCG) or both ...
The inhibitory effects of a dermal extract upon granulation tissue
(Birkhäuser-Verlag; Birkhäuser Verlag ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1978-05)
Injection of a water-soluble dermal extract into adult rats resulted in depression of DNA synthesis in granulation tissue at 3 different sites of injury, but not in epithelium. This suggests that connective tissue proliferation ...
