Programmed cell death in animals, plants and protists is in part regulated by a variety of proteases, including cysteine aspartyl proteases, (caspases, paracaspases and metacaspases), cathepsins, subtilisin-like serine proteases, vacuolar processing enzymes and the proteasome. T…
Heterosis, or hybrid vigor, is a term describing the phenotypic superiority of a hybrid over its parents. This phenomenon is commonly utilized in modern agriculture since the beginning of the 20'th century to increase yield, fertility, endurance and resistance of various organis…
The fluidity and behavior of cellular membranes are typically controlled by the presence of sterol and other components. Lipid rafts (LR) are membrane micro-domains, which contain an unusually large amount of sterol and sphingolipid molecules. These domains have been associated …
Solid state fermentation of canola meal has been carried out for the reduction of its phytic acid content. Several microorganisms were surveyed for this purpose. The phytic acid content of canola meal was reduced by 26%, 60% and 66% using Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Rhizopus oligo…
