Ultra-sensitive quantification of lysozyme based on element chelate labeling and capillary electrophoresis-inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry
2014, Analytica Chimica ActaCitation Excerpt :Unlike antibiotic, lysozyme is totally nature, so it has been widely used in food industry for preserving food from deteriorating and in clinic for diminishing inflammation etc. Previous study showed that the concentration of lysozyme in the serum and saliva is also correlated with breast cancer [3,4]. For above reasons, the development of the sensitive and reliable method for the quantification of lysozyme in biological sample and food is of great significance.
Cloning, sequence identification and expression profile analysis of α-l-fucosidase gene from the Mediterranean fruit fly Ceratitis capitata
2011, Journal of Insect PhysiologyCitation Excerpt :D. ananassae sperm α-l-fucosidase has a molecular mass of 48 and 55 kDa (Intra et al., 2006). Alpha-l-fucosidases are acid hydrolases that have been normally found as a soluble component of lysosomes (Tappel, 2005). However, they have been found also extracellularly in body fluids in mammals, including man (Cordero et al., 2001; Moura et al., 2006), and as intrinsic proteins of plasma membrane in human and fruit fly spermatozoa (Intra et al., 2006, 2009; Venditti and Bean, 2008), as well as in several human somatic cells (Cordero et al., 2001).
Identification and expression profiling of Ceratitis capitata genes coding for β-hexosaminidases
2011, GeneCitation Excerpt :All the three genes are expressed in the male germ-line, but none of them appeared to be testis-specific, as they were expressed in whole adults, testes, ovaries and heads, suggesting a broad physiological role, as recently demonstrated for β-hexosaminidases in D. melanogaster (Cattaneo et al., 2006). In fact, these enzymes are generally found as soluble lysosomal proteins (Tappel, 2005). CcHexo1 and CcHexo2 mRNAs are mainly expressed in the head of females and low levels of transcripts have been detected in testis and ovaries.
