Structure and mechanism of acetolactate decarboxylase [PDF]
Acetolactate decarboxylase catalyzes the conversion of both enantiomers of acetolactate to the (R)-enantiomer of acetoin, via a mechanism that has been shown to involve a prior rearrangement of the non-natural (R)-enantiomer substrate to the natural (S ...

On the Formation of Acetoin by Acetobacter [PDF]
SUMMARY: The formation of acetoin was studied with 44 strains of the genus Acetobacter, when growing on a medium containing DL-lactate as the main carbon source. Most of the strains produced only limited amounts of acetoin. However, strains of the species A.

Maternally-transmitted microbiota affects odor emission and preference in Drosophila larva
Experimental studies show that early sensory experience often affects subsequent sensory preference, suggesting that the heterogeneity of sensory cues in nature could induce significant inter-individual behavioral variation, potentially contributing to ...
