The aim of this study was to isolate and identify Antarctica microalgae collected through the National Antarctic Science Expedition and to examine the growth responses and biochemical contents of Chlorella variabilis under cold and temperate cultivation conditions in growth medium consisting of various nitrogen concentrations under different lighting cycle parameters. In this study, the Antarctic microalgae Chlorella variabilis YTU.ANTARCTIC.001, was cultivated at different temperatures of 4, 13, 20 and 27 °C in modified BG-11 medium with various concentrations of NaNO3 (0, 0.75, 1.5, 2.5 and ...More
This study presents the initial structural model of L-haloacid dehalogenase (DehLBHS1) from Bacillus megaterium BHS1, an alkalotolerant bacterium known for its ability to degrade halogenated environmental pollutants. The model provides insights into the structural features of DehLBHS1 and expands our understanding of the enzymatic mechanisms involved in the degradation of these hazardous pollutants. Key amino acid residues (Arg40, Phe59, Asn118, Asn176, and Trp178) in DehLBHS1 were identified to play critical roles in catalysis and molecular recognition of haloalkanoic acid, essential for effi ...More
The use of molecular markers has become an essential part of molecular genetics through their application in numerous fields, which includes identification of genes associated with targeted traits, operation of backcrossing programs, modern plant breeding, genetic characterization, and marker-assisted selection. Transposable elements are a core component of all eukaryotic genomes, making them suitable as molecular markers. Most of the large plant genomes consist primarily of transposable elements; variations in their abundance contribute to most of the variation in genome size. Retrotransposon ...More
Plants are the sources of many bioactive secondary metabolites which are present in plant organs including leaves, stems, roots, and flowers. Although they provide advantages to the plants in many cases, they are not necessary for metabolisms related to growth, development, and reproduction. They are specific to plant species and are precursor substances, which can be modified for generations of various compounds in different plant species. Secondary metabolites are used in many industries, including dye, food processing and cosmetic industries, and in agricultural control as well as being use ...More
Changing environmental conditions can cause diseases in plants, leading to novel interactions between plants and stress factors. In this respect, the relationships between pathogens and plants regarding epigenetics have still been investigated. Our aim is to examine the effect of leaf blight bacterial causal agent, Pantoea ananatis isolate PaTo34a1, on barley- and rice-specific retrotransposons’ (Nikita, Osr30 and RIRE1, respectively) movements in different rice cultivars (Oryza sativa L. cv. Tosya, Cameo, Arize, Ronaldo, Osmancik-97, Kale, Baldo, Bafra, Hakkari and Vasco) collected from diffe ...More
Tomato is one of the best-studied cultivated dicotyledonous plants in molecular studies. Mobile genetic elements constitute large parts of plant genomes. Retrotransposons are mobile genetic elements within the genome and constitute more than 60 of the tomato genome.Transposable elements (TE) or transposons are DNA sequences that can alter their position within a genome, cause mutations and change the genetic identity of the cells and genome size. We aimed to analyze potato specific-P-Tst-1, P-Tst-3 and P-Tst-6 retrotransposon movements in tomatoes at different developmental stages (mature seed ...More
Mumio is a valuable substance that ranges in color from pale brown to blackish-brown and is obtained from rock layers in various mountain ranges worldwide, particularly in the Tien Shan ranges of Kyrgyzstan. It is also a natural chemical found largely in the Himalayas, created over ages by the progressive degradation of particular plants by bacteria. Mumio is essentially a nutraceutical product with considerable human health advantages. To fully appreciate the predicted impact of mumio use in the medical area, particularly in neurological sciences, more research at both the fundamental biology ...More
