Rhamnogalacturonan‐II Dimerisation Reinforces Salt Resistance in Sugar Beet
ABSTRACT Salinity stress predominantly affects negatively charged cell wall polymers, for example, pectin. Excess Na+ ions interact physically and affect growth in stress‐sensitive plants. However, the salinity resistance of sugar beet cell walls remains unclear.

SUMMARY Photosynthesis, which sustains life on Earth, depends on organized and yet adaptable protein assemblies embedded in specialized membranes known as thylakoids. Understanding how these complexes interact and reorganize within functional photosynthetic membranes is essential to reveal the molecular basis of energy conversion in cells.

Gastric Reacidification with Betaine HCl in Healthy Volunteers with Rabeprazole-Induced Hypochlorhydria [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated that increased gastric pH from the use of acid-reducing agents, such as proton-pump inhibitors or H2-receptor antagonists, can significantly impact the absorption of weakly basic drugs that exhibit pH-dependent ...

We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Loss of Kv8.2 in the Mouse Retina Is Associated With Altered One‐Carbon Metabolism
Kv8.2 knockout mice, a model of KCNV2 retinopathy, exhibit impaired potassium homeostasis in photoreceptors and slowly progressive rod degeneration. To investigate metabolic adaptations accompanying this dysfunction, untargeted metabolomic profiling was performed on mouse retinas.

X-ray structure of the Na+-coupled Glycine-Betaine symporter BetP from Corynebacterium glutamicum [PDF]
Cellular membranes are important sites of interaction between cells and their environment. Among the multitude of macromolecular complexes embedded in these membranes, transporters play a particularly important role.

Enzyme activity and dynamics in near-anhydrous conditions [PDF]
Water is widely assumed to be essential for life 1, although the exact molecular basis of this requirement is unclear 2-4. Water facilitates protein motions 5-9 and although enzyme activity has been demonstrated at low hydrations in organic solvents 10 ...

Pathways of glycine betaine synthesis in two extremely halophilic bacteria, Actinopolyspora halophila and Ectothiorhodospira halochloris [PDF]
Glycine betaine is a solute which is able to restore and maintain the osmotic balance of living cells. In this thesis, the glycine betaine synthesis in two extremely halophilic bacteria Actinopolyspora halophila and Ectothiorhodospira halochloris is ...

ABSTRACT Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a globally significant crop, yet its productivity is increasingly threatened by rising soil salinity in many cultivation areas. In this context, plant growth‐promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have emerged as a promising strategy to enhance plant growth and improve tolerance to salinity stress.
