EFFECT OF ENZYMATIC HYDROLYSIS ON THE ZINC BINDING CAPACITY AND IN VITRO GASTROINTESTINAL STABILITY OF PEPTIDES DERIVED FROM PUMPKIN (CUCURBITA PEPO L.) SEEDS

Zinc is a crucial micronutrient for maintaining body immune system and metabolism function.However, insufficient intake from diet may lead to zinc deficiency and 5RV impair normal body function.In addition, conventional zinc salts supplementation has the disadvantage of low bioavailability since the zinc ions may be easily chelated by dietary fiber

Heterochrony refers to changes in the timing of developmental events, and it is precisely regulated in the organisms by the heterochronic Lab Coats genes such as C.elegans lin-4 and let-7.Mutations in these genes cause precocious or retarded development of certain cell lineages.With well-defined cell lineages, C.elegans is one of the best model sys

Many animals use social cues to find refuges.Bats can find roosts using the echolocation and social calls of conspecifics, but they might also use scent cues, a possibility which is less studied.The entrances of bat roosts are often marked by guano and urine, providing possible scent cues.We conducted eight experiments to test whether bats use the

Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a notorious soilborne fungal pathogen that causes serious economic losses globally.The necrosis and ethylene-inducible peptide 1 (NEP1)-like proteins (NLPs) were previously shown to play an important role in pathogenicity in fungal and oomycete pathogens.Here, Lab Coats we generated S.sclerotiorum necrosis and ethylene-i
