Synthesis and Antibacterial activities of some Arabinofuranose-Schiff bases Derivatives [PDF]
As a continuous research for the discovery of new antibacterial agents due to the developing resistance toward conventional antibiotics, we reported a convenient synthetic approach for the preparation of methyl-α-D-arabinofuranoside shiff-bases. A series

A P-type ATPase importer that discriminates between essential and toxic transition metals [PDF]
Transition metals, although being essential cofactors in many physiological processes, are toxic at elevated concentrations. Among the membrane-embedded transport proteins that maintain appropriate intracellular levels of transition metals are ATP-driven

L-Arabinose 1-dehydrogenase: A novel enzyme involving in bacterial L-arabinose metabolism [PDF]
Azospirillum brasiliense converts L-arabinose to alpha-ketoglutarate via five hypothetical enzymatic steps. We purified and characterized L-arabinose 1-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.46) catalyzing conversion of L-arabinose to L-arabino-gamma-lactone as an enzyme involved in the first step of this L-arabinose metabolic pathway.

Redox linked flavin sites in extracellular decaheme proteins involved in microbe-mineral electron transfer [PDF]
Extracellular microbe-mineral electron transfer is a major driving force for the oxidation of organic carbon in many subsurface environments. Extracellular multi-heme cytochromes of the Shewenella genus play a major role in this process but the mechanism

L-arabinose and D-xylose: sweet pentoses that may reduce postprandial glucose and insulin responses
Background: Diets inducing high fluctuations in plasma glucose levels are linked to type 2 diabetes. L-arabinose and D-xylose have been hypothesized to inhibit intestinal sucrase activity, delay sucrose digestion, and reduce glycaemic and insulinaemic ...

Functional characterization of a highly specific l-arabinose transporter from Trichoderma reesei
Background Lignocellulose biomass has been investigated as a feedstock for second generation biofuels and other value-added products. Some of the processes for biofuel production utilize cellulases and hemicellulases to convert the lignocellulosic ...
