A β‐1,2‐glucan‐associated glycoside hydrolase family 1 β‐glucosidase from Streptomyces griseus
Abstract β‐Glucosidases, major enzymes that release glucose from various natural compounds, are phylogenetically classified into glycoside hydrolase (GH) families. GH1 is the largest of these families. No β‐1,2‐glucan‐associated GH1 enzyme has been found, even though β‐1,2‐glucans are natural carbohydrates that are important for interaction between ...

The molecular basis of lactase persistence: Linking genetics and epigenetics
Abstract Lactase persistence (LP) — the genetic trait that determines the continued expression of the enzyme lactase into adulthood — has undergone recent, rapid positive selection since the advent of animal domestication and dairying in some human populations.

26 studies were identified, reporting on 22 populations. Size ranged from 14 to 971 individuals (mean 170). Some reproducible data were identified; F. nucleatum and P. micra were significantly enriched in colorectal neoplasia compared to controls in 10 and 9 studies respectively. However, evidence quality was poor, limiting the comparability of studies.

The caterpillars of the greater wax moth (Galleria mellonella) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) are emerging models to study innate immunity and plastic biodegradation. Both of these processes are impacted by the associations between the insect host and its gut microbiome. Although bacterial flora harbored by the larvae have been characterized, little is known

Creating Colostomies for Sacral Pressure Ulcers: A Single‐Centre Retrospective Study
ABSTRACT Faecal contamination of sacral pressure ulcers occurs frequently, so, theoretically, faecal diversion using colostomies is a useful procedure. We retrospectively analysed the data of adult patients for whom colostomies were created to enhance wound healing and compared patients with sacral pressure ulcers who received colostomies and those who
