Metabolic modeling and analysis of the metabolic switch in Streptomyces coelicolor [PDF]
Background The transition from exponential to stationary phase in Streptomyces coelicolor is accompanied by a major metabolic switch and results in a strong activation of secondary metabolism.

The Distinctive Regulatory Mechanisms of Bacterial Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase [PDF]
Metabolic Regulation is a complex system used to control cellular metabolism in response to conditions in the cell’s environment. For most enzymes, the cell can rely upon a minimal amount of regulation; however, critical enzymes, such as acetyl-CoA ...

NMR Studies of Escherichia Coli Acyl Carrier Protein: Dynamic and Structural Differences of the Apo- and Holo-forms [PDF]
Two indicators of conformational variability of Escherichia coli acyl carrier protein (ACP) have been investigated, namely backbone dynamics and chemical shift variations of ACP.

Identifying Novel Inhibitors of RpFabG in Typhus-inducing Rickettsia prowazekii [PDF]
Epidemic typhus is a rickettsial disease that is contracted via ticks and lice found on the flying squirrel. The disease is caused by Rickettsia prowazekii, an intracellular, gram-negative coccobacillus.

High temperature during soybean seed development differentially alters lipid and protein metabolism
High temperatures during seed development can affect the seed yield and quality in many crops. Here, we analyzed how high temperature alters the main seed storage compounds (lipid and protein) in soybean. At five days after R5 stage (initial seed filling
