Novel fusion proteins based on recombinant lectins for delivery of a cytotoxic peptide specifically to cancer cells
Thesis
Mohammed, S. Novel fusion proteins based on recombinant lectins for delivery of a cytotoxic peptide specifically to cancer cells. (Thesis). University of Salford

One of the most common post-translational modifications is covalent attachment of carbohydrates to proteins. At the cell surface, molecular recognition events involved in cancer metastasis are mediated by sugar moieties of glycoproteins. Evidence fro...

Expression and characterization of recombinant human NEIL3 from Escherichia coli
Thesis
Albelazi, M. (in press). Expression and characterization of recombinant human NEIL3 from Escherichia coli. (Thesis). University of Salford

The DNA glycosylase NEIL3 is one of a family of proteins that release oxidized bases from DNA, thereby initiating base excision repair. NEIL3 gene expression is normally tightly regulated and expressed only in certain rapidly dividing cells, however,...

Biochemical characteristics and antimicrobial potential of seed and nut oils against Staphylococcus aureus
Thesis
Yangomodou, O. (in press). Biochemical characteristics and antimicrobial potential of seed and nut oils against Staphylococcus aureus. (Thesis). University of Salford

The antibacterial activities of oils and extracts from walnut, cashew and pumpkin were investigated on methicillin resistant and susceptible strain MRSA 252 and S. aureus ATCC 6538 using the disc agar diffusion technique. Results revealed that the te... Read More about Biochemical characteristics and antimicrobial potential of seed and nut oils against Staphylococcus aureus.
