Contextualized Metabolic Modelling Revealed Factors Affecting Isoflavone Accumulation in Soybean Seeds

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isoflavones, secondary metabolites with numerous health benefits, are predominantly found in legume seeds, especially soybean; however, their contents in domesticated soybean seeds are highly variable. Wild soybeans are known for higher seed isoflavone contents than cultivars. Here we used experimental and modelling approaches on wild soybean (

Columnaris disease in fish: a review with emphasis on bacterium-host interactions [PDF]

, 2013
Flavobacterium columnare (F. columnare) is the causative agent of columnaris disease. This bacterium affects both cultured and wild freshwater fish including many susceptible commercially important fish species. F. columnare infections may result in skin

Self‐Reported Health‐Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in Adults With Urea Cycle Disorders

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Multiple studies have assessed Health‐Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in children with urea cycle disorders (UCDs); investigations in adults with the same disorders are rarer. Understanding the variables that modify self‐reported HRQoL has become increasingly important as novel treatments are developed, with clinically meaningful endpoints ...

LC-MS proteomics analysis of the iInsulin/IGF-1-deficient Caenorhabditis elegans daf-2(e1370) mutant reveals extensive restructuring of intermediary metabolism [PDF]

, 2014
The insulin/IGF-1 receptor is a major known determinant of dauer formation, stress resistance, longevity, and metabolism in Caenorhabditis elegans. In the past, whole-genome transcript profiling was used extensively to study differential gene expression ...

Gap Analysis of Metabolic Conversions of Off‐Flavors and Antinutrients in Plant‐Based Substrates

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT To drastically reduce the carbon footprint of the food production chain, a major shift towards alternatives to conventional meat and dairy products is required. The use of plant‐based proteins is a promising route, but it also comes with challenges: Plant‐based proteins often contain antinutritional factors and off‐flavors, which can ...

Retracing the path of evolution: polymorphisms of aspA codon 363 shape the fitness of Yersinia pestis

Emerging Microbes and Infections
Yersinia pestis, the etiologic agent of plague, is a genetically monomorphic pathogen. By screening 1085 published Y. pestis genomes, we identified an unusual mutation hotspot within codon 363 of the aspartate ammonia-lyase gene aspA with at least six ...

Engineered Phenylalanine Ammonia‐Lyases for the Enantioselective Synthesis of Aspartic Acid Derivatives

Angewandte Chemie International Edition
AbstractBiocatalytic hydroamination of alkenes is an efficient and selective method to synthesize natural and unnatural amino acids. Phenylalanine ammonia‐lyases (PALs) have been previously engineered to access a range of substituted phenylalanines and heteroarylalanines, but their substrate scope remains limited, typically including only arylacrylic ...

Hyperammonemia-induced toxicity for the developing central nervous system [PDF]

, 2007
In pediatric patients, hyperammonemia can be caused by various acquired or inherited disorders such as urea cycle deficiencies or organic acidemias. The brain is much more susceptible to the deleterious effects of ammonium during development than in ...

Fruit respiration: putting alternative pathways into perspective

New Phytologist, Volume 250, Issue 1, Page 54-73, April 2026.
Summary Over the past century, research has significantly advanced our understanding of fruit respiration, from (eco)physiological processes to molecular mechanisms. This review focuses on the functional relevance and regulatory roles of mitochondrial alternative respiratory pathways (ARPs) during fruit growth and ripening.
