Methionine formation by transmethylation in vitro [PDF]
We reported in a previous communication (1) that guanidoacetic acid is methylated to creatine by rat liver slices in the presence of choline and either homocysteine or homocystine.

Surviving global change: a review of the impacts of drought and dewatering on freshwater mussels
ABSTRACT The increase in the frequency and intensity of droughts and heatwaves caused by climate change poses a major threat to biodiversity. In aquatic systems, sedentary species such as freshwater mussels are generally considered more vulnerable to changes in habitat conditions than mobile species such as fish.

Photosynthetic H2 production: Lessons from the regulation of electron transfer in microalgae
Green hydrogen, produced during microalgal photosynthesis, is regarded as one of the most promising sustainable energy sources. It utilizes sunlight and water, which are essentially unlimited, and its combustion results in only water as a waste product ...

Differential expression of two types of sucrose synthase-encoding genes in wheat in response to anaerobiosis, cold shock and light [PDF]
The expression of two types of sucrose synthase-encoding genes, Ss1 and Ss2, in hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum, L.), has been investigated using type-specific probes, corresponding to the 250–270 bp C-terminal portions of the respective cDNA clones ...
