Living systems respond to changing environment by changing gene expression. In addition to changes in the level of expression of existing proteins, some new proteins may be synthesized. Such proteins not only can serve as markers, but may also play important role in adjusting to that specific environment. Targeting of these proteins to specific location within or outside the cell may also yield important clues to their function. In such a pursuit, ten days old seedlings of a relatively salt tolerant rice variety grown on MS medium were treated with 2% sodium chloride for three days. Root were harvested, ground, and fractionated in to sub-cellular components. Microsomes were further fractionated into constituent membranes. Proteins from these fractions were analyzed by SDS-PAGE and/or two dimensional separations. Results show induction of two new polypeptides which were present in total protein extract and soluble fractions. All other fractions failed to reveal induction of any new peptide under experimental conditions used.

Temperature Dependence of Susceptibility in the Ferrielectric Phase of Ammonium Sulphate
Enginer, Y.; Salihoǧlu, S.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2003-08-01)
We have developed a mean field model for the paraelectric-ferrielectric phase transition in ammonium sulphate. In our model we assume that the quadrupolar. interactions are the dominant mechanism for this type of transition. The fit of our calculated susceptibility to the experimental data shows that the free energy, with a quadrupolar coupling term, can also adequately explain the observed behaviour of ammonium sulphate
Other regarding preferences in hierarchies: a theoretical study oncollusive behavior and optimal contracts
Saygılı, Kemal; Küçükşenel, Serkan; Department of Economics (2016)
This thesis aims at obtaining new theoretical insights into behavior of organizational hierarchies by combining standard principal-supervisor-agent framework with theories of social preferences. Extending Tirole’s (1986) model of hierarchy with the inclusion of Fehr and Schmidt’s (1999) distributional other-regarding preferences approach, the links between inequity aversion, collusive behavior throughout the levels of a hierarchy and the changes in optimal contracts are studied. It turns out that other-rega...
Evolution of Primate Gene Expression: Drift and Corrective Sweeps?
Chaix, R.; Somel, Mehmet; Kreil, D. P.; Khaitovich, P.; Lunter, G. A. (Genetics Society of America, 2008-11-01)
Changes in gene expression play an important: role in species' evolution. Earlier studies uncovered evidence that the effect of mutations on expression levels within the primate order is skewed, with many small downregulations balanced by fewer but larger upregulations. In addition, brain-expressed genes appeared to show an increased rate of evolution on the branch leading to human. However, the lack of a mathematical model adequately describing the evolution of gene expression precluded the rigorous establ...
Isolation of High-Quality RNA from Pichia pastoris
Öztürk, Sibel; Demir, İrem; Çalık, Pınar (Wiley, 2019-12-01)
Analysis of RNA structuromes provides new insights into cellular processes, enabling systems biology and biotechnology researchers to calculate promoter and terminator strengths and to directly observe how differing circuit states impact host gene expression and the burdens imposed by the circuits. Such analysis, however, is crucially dependent on the availability of highly pure, intact RNA isolated from fresh or frozen cell cultures. RNA extraction from the yeast Pichia pastoris requires specific pretreatm...
Feasibility of Gökçekaya pumped storage hydropower plant and metristepe wind power plant
Ağdoğan, Özg; Oğuz, Elif; Department of Civil Engineering (2020)
Population increment, industrialization, and developments in technology cause increase in energy demand. In order to meet this demand, fossil fuels are used excessively despite being exhaustible and harmful to environment. It is necessary to decrease use of fossil fuels to meet energy need without causing burdens on environment. Thus, renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, biomass, and geothermal has been started to use significantly. From renewable energy sources wind energy has taken considerable a...
