Hepatic Deficiency of Augmenter of Liver Regeneration Exacerbates Alcohol-Induced Liver Injury and Promotes Fibrosis in Mice. [PDF]
Why only a subpopulation (about 15%) of humans develops liver cirrhosis due to alcohol is a critical as yet unanswered question. Liver-specific depletion of augmenter of liver regeneration (ALR) protein in mice causes robust steatosis and hepatocyte ...

Alcohol Dehydrogenase of a Novel Algae Fermentation Strain Meyerozyma guilliermondii [PDF]
The production of bioethanol from algae has attracted wide attention in the field of energy. A novel algae fermentation strain, Meyerozyma guilliermondii, can produce alginate mlyase and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) at the same time.

Oligotrophic Gene Expression in Rhodococcus erythropolis N9T-4 under Various Nutrient Conditions
Rhodococcus erythropolis N9T-4 is a super oligotroph that grows on an inorganic basal medium without any additional carbon and nitrogen sources and requires CO2 for its oligotrophic growth. Previously, we found that two genes, aldA and mnoA, encoding NAD-
