Transcription factors UvBhlh1 and UvBhlh6 are essential for early infection and virulence in Ustilaginoidea virens. These two proteins form a heterodimer that cooperatively regulates downstream target genes during pathogenesis. ABSTRACT Ustilaginoidea virens is the causal agent of rice false smut, a devastating and globally widespread fungal disease ...

The role of the gut microbiome in the regulation of high‐altitude adaptation
This study is the first to elucidate mechanisms of high‐altitude adaptation from the perspective of the rumen ecosystem by using indigenous yaks and Holstein cows that have lived at high altitude since birth as comparative models. Through a systematic comparison of their rumen ecology using multi‐omics approaches—including rumen metagenomics ...

ABSTRACT Microbial enzymes expressed in plants add new functionalities but occasionally trigger undesirable immune responses. Phanerochaete carnosa glucuronoyl esterase (PcGCE) hydrolyses the bond between lignin and 4‐O‐methyl‐α‐D‐glucuronic acid substituent of glucuronoxylan.

Acetylation of woody lignocellulose: significance and regulation
Non-cellulosic cell wall polysaccharides constitute approximately one quarter of usable biomass for human exploitation. In contrast to cellulose, these components are usually substituted by O-acetyl groups, which affect their properties and interactions ...

ABSTRACT A substantial proportion of fresh fruit undergoes processing, resulting in underutilized fruit by‑products (FBPs) that are rich in dietary fiber and bioactive compounds. Recent FBP valorization trends demonstrate that fermentation significantly enhances microbiological, nutritional, and sensory attributes, yielding value‑added food supplements.

Multiple nucleophilic elbows leading to multiple active sites in a single module esterase from Sorangium cellulosum [PDF]
The catalytic residues in carbohydrate esterase enzyme families constitute a highly conserved triad: serine, histidine and aspartic acid. This catalytic triad is generally located in a very sharp turn of the protein backbone structure, called the ...
