ARMY AND SOCIETY IN ISRAEL: PAST, PRESENT AND VECTORS OF THE FUTURE


Conserved Disease Modules Extracted From Multilayer Heterogeneous Disease and Gene Networks for Understanding Disease Mechanisms and Predicting Disease Treatments

Disease relationship studies for understanding the pathogenesis of complex diseases, diagnosis, prognosis, and drug development are important.Traditional approaches consider one type of disease data or aggregating multiple types of disease data into a single network, which results in important temporal- or context-related information loss and may d

The Reversible Non-covalent Aggregation Into Fibers of PGLa and Magainin 2 Preserves Their Antimicrobial Activity and Synergism

Magainin 2 and PGLa are antimicrobial peptides found together in frog skin secretions.When added as a mixture they show an order of magnitude increase in antibacterial activity and in model membrane permeation assays.Here we demonstrate that both peptides can Essential Tote form fibers with beta-sheet/turn signature in ATR-FTIR- and CD-spectroscopi
