Evidence for a novel Chlorella virus-encoded alginate lyase [PDF]
To clone the genes encoding lysis protein from a Chlorella virus, water samples were collected from 13 aquatic environments located in the Kanto area of Japan. Eight water samples contained plaque-forming viruses on Chlorella sp. NC64A, but no virus was detected in the other five samples.

Alginate (alginic acid) is a linear polysaccharide, wherein (1→4)-linked β-D-mannuronic acid and its C5 epimer, α-L-guluronic acid, are arranged in varying sequences. Alginate lyases catalyze the depolymerization of alginate, thereby cleaving the (1→4) glycosidic linkages between the monomers by a β-elimination mechanism, to yield unsaturated 4-deoxy-L-

Isothiocyanates as Ferroptosis Inducers to Promote Cancer Cell Death
ABSTRACT Cancer remains a leading cause of global mortality, with the therapeutic efficacy of anticancer drugs often hampered by late diagnosis and the development of chemotherapy resistance. Ferroptosis is an iron‐dependent form of regulated non‐apoptotic cell death driven by lipid peroxidation.

Alginate Lyase and Its Applications in Alginate Oligosaccharides Production
In recent years, marine resources become strategic resources and attract widespread attention due to their unique physiological and physiochemical properties. Alginate, a prominent marine polysaccharide, is derived from the cell walls of brown algae and certain bacteria.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

Bacteriophages—viruses that kill bacteria—are promising weapons against bacterial biofilms: sessile communities notoriously resistant to antibiotics. Yet phages evolved not so much to eradicate bacteria as to obtain new bacteria to infect. That goal, however, may conflict with the physician's objective of complete bacterial clearance.

Alliinase: A Comprehensive Review of the Pivotal Enzyme in Garlic Chemistry and Its Applications
Garlic crude extract was purified to obtain alliinase, which catalyzes alliin hydrolysis to release allicin. The free and immobilized alliinase shows potential applications in food, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, health products, and biosensors. ABSTRACT Alliinase is a pyridoxal 5′‐phosphate (PLP)‐dependent lyase that serves as the cornerstone of the ...

The review discusses stimuli‐responsive hydrogels as soft optical materials that translate physical, chemical, and biological cues into refractive‐index, scattering, birefringence, diffraction, and transparency changes. It examines major stimulus classes and photonic architectures for biosensing, waveguiding, adaptive lenses, smart windows, and therapy.
