A majority (84%) of G protein-coupled receptors have a proline (P5.50) in the middle of the fifth transmembrane domain. However, one of the unique structural features of cannabinoid receptors is the replacement of the conserved P5.50 by a leucine (L5.50). It has been shown that a conserved tyrosine
The comparative effect of fertilizers (NPK), plant growth regulators (GA3, IAA, Zeatin) and sodium chloride (NaCl) on Cd phytoaccumulation, proline and phenolics production in Cannabis sativa was evaluated. Proline and phenolices were correlated with Cd contents in plant. Cd significantly reduced
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) play critical physiological and therapeutic roles. The human cannabinoid 1 GPCR (hCB1) is a prime pharmacotherapeutic target for addiction and cardiometabolic disease. Our prior biophysical studies on the structural biology of a synthetic peptide representing the
The cannabinoid CB1 receptor, a member of the Rhodopsin (Rho) family of G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), exhibits high levels of constitutive activity. In contrast, Rho exhibits an exquisite lack of constitutive activity. In Rho, W6.48(265) on transmembrane helix 6 (TMH6) is flanked by aromatic
Cadmium (Cd) uptake and accumulation in plant tissues is affected by physiological stage of a plant and presence of mineral nutrients in soil. We investigate the effect of micronutrient Mo (0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 ppm) on biomass, Cd accumulation, photosynthetic pigments and endogenous phenolics and
Adequate cell dehydration is the precipitating element in the successful cryopreservation of plant cells and organs. This could be achieved by using different cooling rates, transfer temperatures and cryoprotectants. Experiments were performed to determine these critical points in the freeze
Hemp seed protein hydrolysate (HPH) was produced through simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) digestion of hemp seed protein isolate followed by partial purification and separation into eight peptide fractions by reverse-phase (RP)-HPLC. The peptide fractions exhibited higher oxygen radical
The chemical composition of the inflorescences from four Cannabis sativa L. monoecious cultivars (Ferimon, Uso-31, Felina 32 and Fedora 17), recently introduced in the Lazio Region, was monitored over the season from June to September giving indications on their sensorial,
