ASSESSMENT OF SAFETY AND PROBIOTIC TRAITS OF ENTEROCOCCUS DURANS OSY-EGY, ISOLATED FROM EGYPTIAN ARTISANAL CHEESE, USING COMPARATIVE GENOMICS AND PHENOTYPIC ANALYSES

Assessment of Safety and Probiotic Traits of Enterococcus durans OSY-EGY, Isolated From Egyptian Artisanal Cheese, Using Comparative Genomics and Phenotypic Analyses

An Enterococcus durans strain, designated OSY-EGY, was previously isolated from artisanal cheese.In this work, comparative genomic and phenotypic analyses were utilized Juices to assess the safety characteristics and probiotic traits of the bacterium.The comparative genomic analysis revealed that the strain is distantly related to potentially patho

Testing the gravity p-median model empirically

Regarding the location of a facility, the presumption in the widely used p-median model is that the customer opts for the shortest route to the nearest facility.However, this assumption is problematic on free markets since the customer is presumed to gravitate to a facility by the distance to and the attractiveness Accessories of it.The recently in

A phylogenetic survey of myotubularin genes of eukaryotes: distribution, protein structure, evolution, and gene expression

Abstract Background Phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) lipids, produced and modified by PtdIns kinases and phosphatases, are critical to the regulation of diverse cellular functions.The myotubularin PtdIns-phosphate phosphatases have been well characterized Horse in yeast and especially animals, where multiple isoforms, both catalytically
