Starch branching enzymes and their genes in Sorghum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Starch is an important raw material both for food and non-food purposes. It is synthesized and stored in source and sink tissues in plants. The starch deposited in amyloplasts of storage tissues possesses several physico-chemical properties, which makes ...

Beyond Immunity: Functional Outcomes of Dietary Yeast and Seaweed β‐Glucans in Adult Canine Nutrition

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, Volume 110, Issue 5, Page 609-623, September 2026.
ABSTRACT β‐Glucans are functional compounds associated with health benefits; however, the physiological effects of different β‐glucan sources in dog foods remain incompletely understood. This study evaluated and compared the effects of β‐glucans derived from Euglena gracilis (seaweed) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) on nutrient digestibility ...

A Fungal Glycoside Hydrolase From Colletotrichum asianum Mini‐Chromosomes Targets Host Chitinase to Suppress Plant Immunity

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 9, September 2026.
CaMutA interacts with MiChi1 and promotes the degradation of the latter by the 26S proteasome, resulting in the inability to activate reactive oxygen species (ROS), PR genes, and MAPK signalling, thereby weakening resistance to C. asianum. ABSTRACT Colletotrichum asianum, the cause of mango anthracnose, is a major threat to mango production worldwide ...

Assessing the therapeutic potential of PDE‐5 inhibitors in adults: Insights from a multi‐omics study

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 18, September 2026.
Abstract Phosphodiesterase‐5 inhibitors have beneficial pleiotropic effects and hold promise as adjuvant treatments for cancer, dementia, and other disorders. Sixteen men and women aged 50–60 were administered daily sildenafil/tadalafil for 1 month. We characterized molecular signatures of sildenafil/tadalafil treatment via analyses and multi‐omics ...

Characterization of the GH13 and GH57 glycogen branching enzymes from Petrotoga mobilis SJ95 and potential role in glycogen biosynthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Glycogen is a highly branched alpha-glucan polymer widely used as energy and carbon reserve by many microorganisms. The branches are introduced by glycogen branching enzymes (EC 2.4.1.18), that are classified into glycoside hydrolase families 13 (GH13 ...

Islet acid glucan-1,4-alpha-glucosidase: a putative key enzyme in nutrient-stimulated insulin secretion

open access: yes, 1996
Little attention has been paid to a possible relationship between lysosomal function and stimulation of secretory processes in endocrine cells. The last few years it has become increasingly evident that the secretion of insulin from the pancreatic beta ...

Alpha-stable branching and beta-coalescents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
We determine that the continuous-state branching processes for which the genealogy, suitably time-changed, can be described by an autonomous Markov process are precisely those arising from $\alpha$-stable branching mechanisms.

A genome wide association scan for (1,3;1,4)-β-glucan content in the grain of contemporary 2-row Spring and Winter barleys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: (1,3;1,4)-β-Glucan is an important component of the cell walls of barley grain as it affects processability during the production of alcoholic beverages and has significant human health benefits when consumed aboverecommended threshold levels.

Functional characterisation of a predicted chloroplastic plant protein phosphatase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The phosphatase AtPTPKISI is involved in the control of starch metabolism in Arabidopsis thaliana leaves at night. The SEX4 (Starch Excess 4) mutants, lacking this predicted phosphatase, have strongly reduced rates of starch metabolism.
