Water Science and Technology, 2003 Incomplete nitrification at an activated sludge plant for biological pre-treatment of rendering plant effluents led to a detailed investigation on the origin and solution of this problem. Preliminary studies revealed that an inhibition of ammonia oxidising microorganisms (AOM) by process waters of the rendering plant was responsible for the situation ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Exploiting crop genotype-specific root-soil interactions to enhance agronomic efficiency
Frontiers in Soil Science, 2023 Challenges of soil degradation and changing climate pose major threats to food security in many parts of the world, and new approaches are required to close yield and nutrition gaps through enhanced agronomic efficiency.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Research Progress Related to Sorghum Biological Nitrification Inhibitors
AgronomyTo meet the growing population’s demand for food, humans have introduced large amounts of nitrogen fertilizers into agricultural systems, resulting in highly nitrified environments in most farmland soils. In highly nitrified environments, the application

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Soil Nitrification Rate Is Affected by Plant Species and Nitrogen Levels
AgricultureThe soil nitrification rate is significantly affected by plant species, and it is also modulated by different nitrogen levels in the soil. There are a wide range of plant species with the capacity to produce biological nitrification inhibitors (hereafter
