Enhancing Alkane Production in Cyanobacterial Lipid Droplets: A Model Platform for Industrially Relevant Compound Production

open access: yesLife, 2015
Cyanobacterial lipid droplets (LDs) are packed with hydrophobic energy-dense compounds and have great potential for biotechnological expression and the compartmentalization of high value compounds.

Arabidopsis CER1-LIKE1 Functions in a Cuticular Very-Long-Chain Alkane-Forming Complex1

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2018
The characterization of a further cuticular alkane synthesis enzyme in Arabidopsis supports a model in which several alkane-forming complexes with distinct chain-length substrate specificities coexist in plants.

Alkane biosynthesis gene expression and its increased production in recombinant cyanobacteria

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio
Microalgae such as cyanobacteria convert CO2 to compatible drop‐in fuels, such as alkanes. However, the production yield is approximately 0.05–1.0% of the dry weight of natural algae.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

DISTRIBUTION OF HYDROCARBONS IN PARTICULATE MATTER AND BOTTOM SEDIMENTS OF THE VOLGA DELTA

open access: yesGeography, Environment, Sustainability, 2010
Data are presented on the content and composition of hydrocarbons (aliphatic and polyaromatic) in the filtered particulate matter and in the surface layer of the bottom sediments of the Volga River and the northern shelf of the Caspian Sea.

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Recent advances in C(sp3)–H bond functionalization via metal–carbene insertions

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2016
The recent development of intermolecular C–H insertion in the application of C(sp3)–H bond functionalizations, especially for light alkanes, is reviewed.

Engineered extracellular vesicles enriched with the miR‐214/199a cluster enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy in ovarian cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the miR‐214/199a cluster is associated with recurrence in ovarian cancer. Engineered small extracellular vesicles (m214‐sEVs) elevate miR‐214‐3p/miR‐199a‐5p in tumor cells, suppress β‐catenin, TLR4, and YKT6 signaling, reprogram tumor‐derived sEV cargo, reduce chemoresistance and migration, and enhance carboplatin efficacy and survival in ...

Methanogenic biodegradation of C9 to C12 n-alkanes initiated by Smithella via fumarate addition mechanism

open access: yesAMB Express, 2020
In the present study, a methanogenic alkane-degrading (a mixture of C9 to C12 n-alkanes) culture enriched from production water of a low-temperature oil reservoir was established and assessed.
