Deoxynucleotides

The enzyme DNA polymerase, which uses deoxynucleoside triphosphates as substrates, makes DNA. To ensure enough precursors for DNA synthesis, two reactions must occur. First, the 2′ position of the ribose ring of ribonucleotides must be reduced from a C‐OH to a C‐H before the nucleotides can be used for DNA synthesis. Secondly, the thymine ring must be made by addition of a methyl group to uridine.

The small protein thioredoxin supplies reducing equivalents to ribonucleotide reductase for the ribose ring reduction. Thioredoxin is itself reduced by another protein, thioredoxin reductase, a flavoprotein. Reduced glutathione can also carry reducing equivalents to ribonucleotide reductase. In both cases, the ultimate source of reducing equivalents is NADPH.

The regulation of ribonucleotide reductase is complex, with many feedback reactions used to keep the supplies of deoxynucleotides in balance. For example, dGTP and dTTP are feedback inhibitors of their own formation. Each is also an activator of the synthesis of the complementary nucleotide (dCDP or dADP), while dATP is an inhibitor of the reductions to make dADP, dCDP, dGDP, and dUDP. These control functions keep the supply of deoxynucleotides in balance, so that a roughly equivalent amount of each remains available for DNA synthesis.

Glass Plating Beads

Sterilized glass plating beads (4 mm) provide an efficient and easy method to achieve optimal spreading on agar plates. The rolling action of the glass beads gently spread the E. coli solution (or any bacterial/fungal solution) to reach areas of the plate that are inaccessible to spread. Multiple plates containing beads and E. coli solution may be stacked and shaken simultaneously to increase spreading throughout and reduce cell stress. The beads may be recovered by washing with 70% ethanol, sterilized by autoclaving, followed by oven dried.
Method to Use: For regular plating of ECOS cells, add 5~10 beads immediately after pipetting 50~100 ml of transformed cells onto each plate. Move the plate back and forth to roll the beads on the surface and change the direction of shaking a few times to ensure even spreading. When the surface of the agar starts to dry on the plate (20~40 seconds), pour off the beads and the plates are ready for incubation.

Ling-Zhi Immunomodulatory Protein

A large amount of the novelimmunomodulatory protein Ling Zhi-8 (LZ-8) is synthesized in the mycelia of Ganoderma lucidum (Kino, K., Yamashita, A., Yamaoka, K., Watanabe, J., Tanaka, S., Ko, K., Shimizu, K., and Tsunoo, H. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 472-478). A cDNA and a gene for LZ-8 were isolated and characterized. The mixed oligonucleotide probes for LZ-8 cDNA were designed from the results of protein sequencing (Tanaka, S., Ko, K., Kino, K., Tsuchiya, K., Yamashita, A., Murasugi, A., Sakuma, S., and Tsunoo, H. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 16372-16377) and were used for screening the mycelial cDNA library. The nucleotide sequence of the cloned cDNA confirms the amino acid sequence of LZ-8 that was previously determined by protein sequencing. The clones containing the LZ-8 gene (lz-8) were obtained from the mycelial genomic DNA library using the cDNA probe. Two CCAAT-like sequences and one TATA box were found at the upstream region of the postulated transcription initiation site of lz-8. A small intron (61 nucleotides long) divided lz-8 into two exons at the 5'-untranslated region. The other characteristic sequences were also found around the postulated transcription initiation site and around the poly(A) additional site.

What is Zinc Picolinate

Zinc is one of the trace minerals that your body requires to maintain optimal health. Even though zinc is an abundant mineral, you can suffer from a zinc deficiency. If you have a zinc deficiency, doctors will typically recommend zinc supplements that support absorption by your body. Zinc picolinate is a type of zinc supplement that supports absorption. However, you should consult a medical professional prior to taking any zinc picolinate supplement.

Zinc picolinate is an acid form of zinc that your human body can more easily absorb than other forms of zinc. Absorption of zinc in your body is a complex process that involves the zinc passing through your intestinal membranes, into your blood stream and into your individual cells. Your body also requires zinc as a primary component to support metabolism in your body.
