Two bacterial strains, HKU54T and HKU55, were isolated from the oral cavity of two Chinese cobras (Naja atra) in Hong Kong. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed 100 % sequence identity between HKU54T and HKU55, and the two strains shared 99.0 % sequence identities with Tsukamurella inchonensis
Pergularia daemia (Forsk.) chiov., is a milk weed of Asclepiadaceae family. In the present study β-sitosterol, β-amyrin, α-amyrin and lupeol were identified in the leaf by GC-MS. Molecular docking studies were performed to evaluate their activities on phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and l-amino acid
A phospholipase A(2) purified from the venom of Naja kaouthia (Guangxi cobra) exhibits anticoagulant activities. The structures of two crystal forms were determined by X-ray crystallography at 2.8A resolution with the Naja naja (India cobra) PLA(2) as an initial model. The enzyme exhibits a trimer
The objective of the present work was to examine the bacterial flora associated with the oral cavity of Indian cobra and to study their antibiogram.Oral swabs, collected from six healthy (4 males and 2 females) adult cobra, were subjected to microbiological OBJECTIVE
To determine the oral bacterial flora associated with two common local venomous snakes in Hong Kong, namely the Chinese cobra (Naja atra) and the bamboo pit viper (Trimeresurus albolabris).
METHODS
Cross-sectional study.
METHODS
A non-government organisation and a regional hospital in Hong
BDNF (Brain derived neurotrophic factor) is a secretion protein and a member of the neurotrophin family of growth factors. Structural and functional characterization of BDNF Varanus komodoensis is of interest while its structure remains unknown. Thus, a homology molecular model of BDNF was
