Extraction of antioxidants fromPharmacognosy Research | April-June 2014 | Vol 6 | IssueCONCLUSIONSMethanolic extract of MCC and MTI were discovered to include appreciable levels total cost-free phenolics with promising antioxidant and antidiabetic properties. This scientific facts can serve as an important platform for the development of further safe and effective organic medicine. Elucidation of the molecular mechanisms involved and isolation in the bioactive molecules implicated may possibly assist the improvement of plant-derived potent drugs which can replace the clinically toxic. Therefore, further investigations have to be undertaken for complete identification and characterization of the molecules responsible for antioxidant and antidiabetic activities of MCC and MTI.
Bulky “Gatekeeper” Residue Changes the Cosubstrate Specificity of Aminoglycoside 2 -Phosphotransferase IIaMonolekha Bhattacharya,a Marta Toth,a Clyde A. Smith,b Sergei B. VakulenkoaDepartment of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana, USAa; Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Lightsource, Stanford University, Menlo Park, California, USAbThe aminoglycoside 2 -phosphotransferases APH(2 )-IIa and APH(two )-IVa can utilize ATP and GTP as cosubstrates, since each enzymes possess overlapping but discrete structural templates for ATP and GTP binding. APH(two )-IIIa uses GTP exclusively, simply because its ATP-binding template is blocked by a bulky ty.
