Development of an Amino Sugar-Based Supramolecular Hydrogelator with Reduction Responsiveness. [PDF]
Stimuli-responsive supramolecular hydrogels are a newly emerging class of aqueous soft materials with a wide variety of bioapplications. Here we report a reduction-responsive supramolecular hydrogel constructed from a markedly simple low-molecular-weight

Structural insights into RapZ-mediated regulation of bacterial amino-sugar metabolism. [PDF]
In phylogenetically diverse bacteria, the conserved protein RapZ plays a central role in RNA-mediated regulation of amino-sugar metabolism. RapZ contributes to the control of glucosamine phosphate biogenesis by selectively presenting the regulatory small

Fine-tuning of amino sugar homeostasis by EIIA(Ntr) in Salmonella Typhimurium. [PDF]
The nitrogen-metabolic phosphotransferase system, PTSNtr, consists of the enzymes INtr, NPr and IIANtr that are encoded by ptsP, ptsO, and ptsN, respectively.

Metabolic response induced by parasitic plant-fungus interactions hinder amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism in the host. [PDF]
Infestation by the biotrophic pathogen Gymnosporangium asiaticum can be devastating for plant of the family Rosaceae. However, the phytopathology of this process has not been thoroughly elucidated.

Abiotic sugar enantiomers in the CI carbonaceous chondrite Orgueil [PDF]
The uneven detection of prebiotic organic compounds in meteorites—where amino acids and nucleobases are commonly identified but sugars remain rare and poorly characterized—limits our understanding of extraterrestrial organic chemistry.

Carbohydrate compositional trends throughout Holocene sediments of an alpine lake (Lake Cadagno)
Carbohydrates are a ubiquitous constituent of organisms and contribute significantly to sedimentary organic carbon pools. Yet, the factors that control the degradation and long-term preservation of sedimentary carbohydrates are not well understood. Here,
