Fatty Acid Composition And Cholesterol Content Of Some Turkish Fish Species, Sedat İmre, Serap Sağlik
Fatty Acid Composition And Cholesterol Content Of Some Turkish Fish Species, Sedat İmre, Serap Sağlik
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
It is well known that fish lipids are effective against cardiovascular diseases due to their high contents of polyunsaturated omega-3 (n-3) fatty acids. In order to determine a suitable fish diet, the fatty acid compositions and total lipid and cholesterol contents of 9 common fish species obtained from the central fish market in Ğstanbul were determined. Palmitic (C-16:0) and oleic acid (C-18:1) were the predominant saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids. The predominant polyunsaturated fatty acids were eicosapentaenoic (C-20:5) acid and docosahexaenoic (C-22:6) acid. The amounts of cholesterol in fish lipids did not differ significantly. Sardine ({\it Sardina pilchardus}) and mackerel …

In Vivo Dna Methylation Of Escherichia Colidh5\Alphaand Top10f' Strains By Bacterial Cytosine-5methyltransferase M. Msp1, Öztürk Özdemi̇r, David Hornby
Turkish Journal of Biology
At the chromatin level, methylated CpG dinucleotides are R.Msp1 resistant compared with nonmethylated counterparts. The DNA of two E.coli strains was analyzed following transformation-with bacterial cytosine-5-methyltransferase gene M.Msp1 in mammalian transfection vector pcDNA3. Expression of the M.Msp1 was tested by R.Msp1 digestion. The results suggest that the DNA of both strains was fully methylated at the CCGG sequences, by the active enzyme under the control of T7 and cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoters. Methylated DNA can not be digested and it exhibits higher frag-ment sizes in 1% agarose gel in contrast to the untransformed cell DNAs in vivo.
Biochemical Characterization Of Elastase Frompseudomonas Aeruginosa Ses 938-1, Semra Kocabiyik, Ezgi Ergi̇n
Biochemical Characterization Of Elastase Frompseudomonas Aeruginosa Ses 938-1, Semra Kocabiyik, Ezgi Ergi̇n
Turkish Journal of Biology
We have investigated some biochemical properties of elastase from a new strain o f Pseudomonas aeruginosa (SES 938-1). Activities were measured at 410 nm using N-succinyl-L-(ala) 3 -p- nitroanilide as substrate. The elastase activity followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics over the substrate range of 0.067-0.540 mM with the apparent K m value of 0.375 mM. Optimum activity was observed at 36 °C and pH 7.5. elastase activity was inhibited by metal chelating agents and high concentrations of Mn 2+ , Zn 2+ and Ni 2+ . The results obtained suggest that elastase from P. aeruginosa SES 938-1 is a neutral metalloproteinase.

A Comparison Of Germ Tube Production By Candidaalbicans In Three Media, Gülhan Vardar-Ünlü
A Comparison Of Germ Tube Production By Candidaalbicans In Three Media, Gülhan Vardar-Ünlü
Turkish Journal of Biology
The conversion of C. albicans. from commensal to the pathogenic state is associated with its ability to make the dimorphic transition from the yeast to the hyphal (germ tube) form. Three liq-uid media were compared in ability to promote germ tube production by C. albicans. Medium 199 and Glucose-Glycine Medium at 37°C were highly satisfactory and gave 90 % conversion of yeast cells to hyphal-form cells. Sucrose-Gelatine medium gave only 15% conversion. Glucose-Glycine medium appeared to give more rapid germ tube production than 199 Medium.

Determination Of 5'-Nucleotidase Activity Of Higherplants By Using An Improved Method, Yusuf Turan
Determination Of 5'-Nucleotidase Activity Of Higherplants By Using An Improved Method, Yusuf Turan
Turkish Journal of Biology
The presence of relatively high non-specific phosphatase activities are known in various plant tissues. These enzymes also catalyze the removal of inorganic phosphate from nucleoside monophosphates. According to published reports, so far, the experimental investigations, concerning the 5'-nucleotidase activity, have been mostly carried out without consideration of the non-specific phosphatase activities in crude enzymic extracts. However, few researchers have been included some inhibitors of these phosphatases, such as NaMoO 4 or KF, in assay mixtures. But phosphatases are not completely inhibited by these inhibitors and, therefore, interfere the activity of 5'-nucleotidase. Thus, the non-specific phosphatase activities were determined in crude …

Purification And Characterization Of Pediocin F, Abacteriocin Produced By Pediococcus Acidilacticif, Özlem Osmanagaoğlu, Ufuk Gündüz, Yavuz Beyatli, Cumhur Çökmüş
Turkish Journal of Biology
In this work, Pediococcus acidilactici F isolated from fermented sausage was reported to produce an extracellular antimicrobial peptide, termed Pediocin F, that was protein in nature and effec-tive against many bacteria associated with food spoilage and food related health hazards. Pediocin F is reported here to be sensitive to proteolytic enzymes, resistant to heat and organic solvents, and active over a wide range of pH. We have also reported that the extracellular antimicrobial protein pro-duced by P. acidilactici F was really a small peptide. Coomassie-blue stained SDS-PAGE technique allowed us to estimate the molecular weight of this small peptide to …

A Theoretical Study On The Sex-Pheromones Of Therice Moth, Corcyra Cephalonica Stainton, Lemi Türker
Turkish Journal of Biology
Molecular orbital calculations (AM1 type) were performed on the geometry optimized structures of various farnesal isomers and methyl esters of farnesoic acids. It has been found that the major component, E, E-farnesal, of the sex-pheromone for the rice moth, Corcyra cephalonica Stainton is chemically the most exothermic and stable of all the farnesal isomers. Then, the resem-blance of molecular shapes was detrmined in order to design more stable sex-attractants.

Turkish Journal of Zoology
Hibernation pattern and changes in the body weight of juvenile and adult dormice, Glis glis orientalis, kept in uncontrolled conditions were investigated. It was determined that G.g.orientalis entered hibernation on October 28 when its body weight was 180 g and the ambient temperature was below 18 ºC, which seems to be the critical temperature for entering hibernation. Although body weight has an important role in entering hibernation at the beginning of the hibernation season, dormice hibernated as the hibernation season progressed regardless of their body weight. Adult dormice arose from hibernation during the period of May 13 to June 6. …
