As a cheap and safe antimalarial agent, chloroquine (CQ) has been used in the battle against malaria for more than half century. However, the mechanism of CQ action and resistance in Plasmodium falciparum remains elusive. Based on further…
It was proposed earlier that Pfcrmp (Plasmodium falciparum chloroquine resistance marker protein) may be the chloroquine's target protein in nucleus. In this communication, further evidence is presented to support the view that Pfcrmp may…
Malaria is a serious disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite that transmitted through the bite of a female Anopheles mosquito and invades human erythrocytes. Malaria must be recognized precisely in order to treat the patient in time and…
Chromatin is a complex of DNA, RNA and proteins whose primary function is to package genomic DNA into the tight confines of a cell nucleus. A fundamental repeating unit of chromatin is the nucleosome, an octamer of histone proteins around…
It is well known that cyclins are a family of proteins that control cell-cycle progression by activating cyclin-dependent kinase. Based on our experimental results, we propose here a novel hypothesis that certain amplified genomic-DNA…
The organization and mining of malaria genomic and post-genomic data is highly motivated by the necessity to predict and characterize new biological targets and new drugs. Biological targets are sought in a biological space designed from…
We establish some properties of a within host mathematical model of malaria proposed by Recker et al which includes the role of the immune system during the infection. The model accounts for the antigenic variation exhibited by the malaria…
Plasmodium falciparum aquaglyceroporin (PfAQP) is a multifunctional membrane protein in the plasma membrane of P. falciparum, the parasite that causes the most severe form of malaria. The current literature has established the science of…
This paper deals with the possible motion of nucleons in the nucleus, which is due to realistic inter-nucleonic forces. This approach provides new or more substantiated conclusions about the nuclear structure than those based on the…
The mobility of protein is fundamental in the machinery of life. Here, we have investigated the effect of DNA binding in conjunction with DNA internal motion of the bacterial Hfq master regulator devoid of its amyloid C-terminus domain. Hfq…
Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is generally assumed to be the fundamental theory underlying nuclear physics. In recent years there is progress towards investigating the nucleon structure from first principles of QCD. Although this structure…
In the present study, the origin of the anti-quorum sensing (QS) activities of several members of a recently synthesized and in vitro tested class of lactone and thiolactone based inhibitors were computationally investigated. Docking and…
Counter-regulatory elements maintain dynamic equilibrium ubiquitously in living systems. The most prominent example, which is critical to mammalian survival, is that of pancreatic {\alpha} and {\beta} cells producing glucagon and insulin…
The nucleon is an ideal laboratory to solve QCD in the nonperturbative regime. There are several experimental observations that still lack a rigorous interpretation; they involve the nucleon as a (polarized) target as well as a beam (in…
Many biological, physical, and social interactions have a particular dependence on where they take place. In living cells, protein movement between the nucleus and cytoplasm affects cellular response (i.e., proteins must be present in the…
It is generally believed that quarks being confined inside nucleons should make their presence felt explictly in nuclei only at higher energies. However it is shown here that the hole in the centre of $ ^{3}H $, $ ^{3}He $ and $ ^{4}He $,…
Malaria remains a prevalent health concern in regions with tropical and subtropical climates. The cause of malaria is the Plasmodium parasite, which is transmitted through the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. Traditional…
Calmodulin, the ubiquitous calcium-activated second messenger in eukaryotes, is an extremely versatile molecule involved in many biological processes: muscular contraction, synaptic plasticity, circadian rhythm, and cell cycle, among…
Objectives. This review gathers information on the potential role of antihistamines as anti-infective agents and identifies gaps in research that have impaired its applicability in human health. Methods. The literature search encompassed…
It has become increasingly evident that fabrication of novel biomaterials through molecular self-assembly is going to play a significant role in material science and possibly the information technology of the future. Tubulin, microtubules…
