Free Download Hamdi Sassi, "Lipasee: Functions, Synthesis and Role in Disease "
English | ISBN: 1620813661 | 2012 | 223 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Lipases are ubiquitous enzymes which catalyze the hydrolysis of triacylglycerols to glycerols and free fatty acids. Due to their characteristics of enantioselectivity and regioselectivity and stability in organic solvents, they have gained importance in industrial applications. In this book, the authors examine the functions, synthesis and role in disease of lipases. Topics discussed include the action of lipases as a biotechnological tool; fungal lipases in biocatalysis; secreted phospholipase A2 inhibitors from cynara cardunculus L. and aloe vera extract as a potential therapeutic drug for inflammatory diseases; lipoprotein lipase activity in sickle cell nephropathy; lipases in the pharmaceutical industry; and yeast cell surface display of lipases.

Free Download Peter A. Travelle, "Pulsars: Discoveries, Functions and Formation "
English | ISBN: 1611229820 | 2011 | 192 pages | PDF | 6 MB
A pulsar is a rapidly spinning neutron star that has a mechanism to beam light. This mechanism is only partially understood, but is connected with very strong magnetic fields spinning with the star. This book presents and discusses current research in the study of pulsars, including changes in the orbital periods of binary pulsars; pulsar distances and the electron distribution in the galaxy; magnetic field evolution through pulsar glitches; natal pulsar kicks; particle acceleration in pulsar outer magnetospheres and accretion-driven millisecond x-ray pulsars.

Free Download Adrik D. Sidorov, "Apolipoproteins: Regulatory Functions, Health Effects and Role in Disease "
English | ISBN: 1622574842 | 2013 | 154 pages | PDF | 8 MB
Apolipoproteins are proteins that bind lipids (oil-soluble substances such as fat and cholesterol) to form lipoproteins. They transport the lipids through the lymphatic and circulatory systems. Apolipoproteins also serve as enzyme cofactors, receptor ligands, and lipid transfer carriers that regulate the metabolism of lipoproteins and their uptake in tissues. In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the regulatory functions, health effects and role in disease of apolipoproteins. Topics include macrophages, apolipoproteins, steroid hormones and molecular mechanisms of cell proliferation; formation of discoidal apolipoprotein A-1 lipid bound complexes; the role of apolipoprotein E in cardiovascular and renal disease; the functional variants and mutations of the apolipoprotein A5 gene in human pathology; and regulation of FGF-1 of ApoE/HDL generation in astrocytes.

Free Download Victoria A. Fekete, "Ammonia: Structure, Biosynthesis and Functions "
English | ISBN: 162100502X | 2012 | 137 pages | PDF | 6 MB
Ammonia is a natural and common nitrous agent affecting all vital processes in animal, plant and bacterial cells. In organisms, it is produced by about two hundred enzyme reactions, thus being an essential and harmless metabolite. At high concentrations, ammonia becomes a strong toxin. In this book, the authors present current research in the study of the structure, biosynthesis and functions of ammonia. Topics include the biochemical studies on energy metabolism in animals in acute ammonia intoxication; development of distributed fibre optic sensors of ammonia gas; inhibition of rRNA synthesis by amines and ammonium ions in xenopus embryos; amino acids that play roles in plant adaptation to abiotic stress and the atmospheric concentration of NH3, NO2, HNO3 and SO2 by the passive method compared with corresponding emission inventory.

English | 2020 | ISBN: 0367154277, 0367004402 | EPUB | pages: 516 | 0.7 mb
This book analyzes in four parts constitutional problems of foreign trade policy and foreign trade law in "constitutional democracies" which protect fundamental human rights and effective political equality through constitutional restraints on the exercise of all government powers.
