Information


Malaria
To eradicate malaria, humanity has been making its vaccine to inactivate malaria parasite.
But, it is failed because it is very ineffective although it is possible theoretically.
Todays research, they find antigen which make antibody attached parasite membrane or surface protein.

Aerobic bacteria
Some bacteria react the magnetic field. These bacteria, in magnetic field, stand in a line.
Not only these but also many animals have some mechanisms which recognize magnetic area.
In addition, aerobic or anaerobic microbes line when they are stimulted by oxygen.

DDS system using HNMT
Drug Delivery System(DDS) using virus has tissue specificity. For example, Coronavirus usually infect Upper respiratory tracts.
HNMT(histamine N-methylatransferase) is a enzyme used in metabolic of histamine and inactivate histamine to deliver methyl.
There are two kinds of enzyme, one is DAO, the other is HNMT.
Because DAO has a copper on its sturucture, so it is hard to sythesize it.
Fortunately, HNMT is a single strand protein which is composed just 290 anmino acid.
