Russian wheat aphid: a model for genomic plasticity and a challenge to breeders

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Invasive foundress finds suitable habitat and reproduces through pathogenesis. Wingless females produce life offspring quickly, which leads to high population densities. High population densities result in competition, which may induce epigenetic changes and wing development for dispersal.

The targeted metabolomic profile of laticifers in rubber tree

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Targeted metabolomic profiling of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) laticifers identified metabolites that were reprogramming by domestication, revealed active isoprenoid metabolism in the laticifers, and discovered loci with potential biosynthetic applications, supporting the potential of developing laticifers as bioreactors for production of valuable ...

Dehydroalanine in Histidine Ammonia Lyase

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1969
Abstract Preparations of highly purified Pseudomonas histidine ammonia lyase were inactivated by reduction with sodium borotritide. Alanine was the only labeled material in acid hydrolysates of the dialyzed product. Its presence indicates the presence of dehydroalanine (2-aminoacrylic acid) in the enzyme.

From Aminomutases to Ammonia Lyases: A Protein Engineering Study [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2014
Ammonia lyases and aminomutases are emerging as important enzymatic systems, not only in green synthetic routes to chiral amines, but also as potential target for enzyme therapeutic for treating diseases such as phenylketonuria and cancer (1). On the other hand, β-amino acids harbor many applications in their free form and as building blocks of ...
