Fecal Material of Captive Wild Animals as Source of CAZymes With Application Potential
With the goal to identify a novel resource of enzymes, we tested for the potential of fecal metagenomes of captive wild animals to provide CAZymes. Our data show that CAZymes profiles differed between animals with varying gut physiology and diet, and that metagenomes of captive wild animals can be considered source of diverse CAZymes including rare and

Biodiversity, Anti-Trypanosomal Activity Screening, and Metabolomic Profiling of Actinomycetes Isolated from Mediterranean Sponges [PDF]
Marine sponge–associated actinomycetes are considered as promising sources for the discovery of novel biologically active compounds. In the present study, a total of 64 actinomycetes were isolated from 12 different marine sponge species that had been ...

Farmers' rights and protection of traditional agricultural knowledge: [PDF]
"Although achieving in situ conservation is possible without changing farmers' customary management of crops as common pool resources, an alternative approach is to negotiate a bioprospecting contract with providers of the resource that involves direct ...

Biocultural Community Protocols: Dialogues on the Space Within [PDF]
This paper starts by explaining "the space within" -- the ethical grammar and code by which indigenous peoples use and steward nature. It then explains the inextricable links with nature demonstrated by a number of communities with which we have worked ...

Bioprospecting for Genes Encoding Hydrocarbon-Degrading Enzymes from Metagenomic Samples Isolated from Northern Adriatic Sea Sediments [PDF]
Three metagenomic libraries were constructed using surface sediment samples from the northern Adriatic Sea. Two of the samples were taken from a highly polluted and an unpolluted site respectively.

Self-Determination in International Mediation: Some Preliminary Reflections [PDF]
Few concepts have generated as much discussion in the post-war international legal system as that of “self-determination.” Scholars debate the proper identity of the selves endowed with this right, its boundaries, and its normative relevance.

Halopithys incurva is a red macroalga distributed across the Mediterranean Sea and North‐East Atlantic, with occasional reports from the Indian Ocean. It exhibits a rich chemical diversity, including isoflavones, bromophenols, MAAs, pigments, phycobiliproteins, primary metabolites, and neuroactive compounds.

Search, bioprospecting, and biodiversity conservation [PDF]
To what extent can private-sector bioprospecting incentives be relied upon for the protection of biological diversity? The literature contains dramatically different estimates of these incentives from trivial to quite large.
