INJECTION OF A SOLUBLE FRAGMENT OF NEURAL AGRIN (NT-1654) CONSIDERABLY IMPROVES THE MUSCLE PATHOLOGY CAUSED BY THE DISASSEMBLY OF THE NEUROMUSCULAR JUNCTION.

Injection of a soluble fragment of neural agrin (NT-1654) considerably improves the muscle pathology caused by the disassembly of the neuromuscular junction.

Treatment of neuromuscular diseases is still an unsolved problem.Evidence over the last years strongly indicates the involvement of malformation and dysfunction of neuromuscular junctions in the development of such medical conditions.Stabilization of NMJs thus seems to be Eczema a promising approach to attenuate the disease progression of muscle wa

Rational and evolutionary engineering approaches uncover a small set of genetic changes efficient for rapid xylose fermentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Economic bioconversion of plant cell wall hydrolysates into fuels and chemicals has been hampered mainly due to the inability of microorganisms to efficiently co-ferment pentose and hexose sugars, especially glucose and xylose, which are the most abundant sugars in cellulosic hydrolysates.Saccharomyces cerevisiae cannot metabolize xylose due to a l
