Vulnerability and impacts of the Hadjar Soud cement factory on water quality in the Oued El Kebir watershed (West of Skikda, Algeria)
Journal ID : ALS-02-10-2022-5646; Total View : 232; Author : Ibtissem Samai, Djamel Samai, Amina Beldjazia, Ibtissem Anguel, Hanene Ramdani, Zoubeida Meghlaoui, Amina Zentar,
Abstract : Factories and industrial companies have a vital and indispensable role in the economy and sustainable development, especially for those paid for development, but they have a vulnerability and a negative impact on the Oueds and on the environment in general. The Hadjar Soud cement factory, located in Bekkouche Lakhdar, Azzaba, Wilaya of Skikda, is considered one of the leading industrial companies for producing and manufacturing cement in northeast Algeria. Consequently, industrial discharges from the latter affect the quality of the waters of the Oued el Kebir watershed (west of Skikda), which is the main objective of this research, to characterize and thus determine the vulnerability and impact of pollution on this watershed. A physicochemical study of several parameters of the surface waters of this river was made based on simple random sampling where this cement factory varies these effluents in the latter. The samples were taken in February 2022. The results obtained show that the surface waters of the Oued El Kebir watershed are highly polluted and degraded by discharges from the Hadjar Soud Cement factory, and therefore, it is essential to install a treatment plant to treat the effluents of the latter before discharging them into the Oued El Kebir watershed.

Identification of transcription factors and DNA-binding domains with conservation analysis of the 5'-upstream promoter sequence of Chitinase-3-like protein-1 (CHI3L1) gene encoding YKL-40 protein: A type-2-diabetes specific inflammatory glycoprotein marker
Journal ID : ALS-27-09-2022-5645; Total View : 156; Author : Raj Rani, Varsha Singh,
Abstract : YKL-40, encoded by Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1) gene, is predominantly an inflammation-based secretory glycoprotein in type-2-diabetes. The transcriptional mechanism, especially the upstream promoter region of the human CHI3L1 gene, remains unknown. The aim was to performin silico upstream promoter identification and analysis to determine types of transcription factors and their binding domains crucial in transcribing the human CHI3L1 gene along with multiple sequence alignments and detailed phylogenetic analysis of eight mammalian species of the CHI3L1 gene. The key finding revealed that YKL-40 is regulated by inflammation-based transcription factors, which are positive regulators mostly signal-dependent belonging to basic-, zinc-coordinating- and helix-turn-helix -DNA-binding domains. Phylogenetic analysis reveals that the promoter region of the primate species evolved together. The 5’-upstream promoter regions lying within the -3000 bp of the transcription start site are highly dynamic regions to bind transcription factors and consist of their respective transcription factor binding domains.
