The effect of carbohydrate ingestion on the Interleukin-6 response to a 90-minute run time trial [PDF]
Fatigue is a predictable outcome of prolonged physical activity; yet its biological cause remains uncertain. During exercise, a polypeptide messenger molecule interleukin- 6 (IL-6) is actively produced.

dbCAN: a web resource for automated carbohydrate-active enzyme annotation
Carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes) are very important to the biotech industry, particularly the emerging biofuel industry because CAZymes are responsible for the synthesis, degradation and modification of all the carbohydrates on Earth.

Carbohydrate-binding modules: fine-tuning polysaccharide recognition.
The enzymic degradation of insoluble polysaccharides is one of the most important reactions on earth. Despite this, glycoside hydrolases attack such polysaccharides relatively inefficiently as their target glycosidic bonds are often inaccessible to the ...

Carbohydrate NMR chemical shift predictions using E(3) equivariant graph neural networks [PDF]
Carbohydrates, vital components of biological systems, are well-known for their structural diversity. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy plays a crucial role in understanding their intricate molecular arrangements and is essential in assessing and verifying the molecular structure of organic molecules. An important part of this process is to

Martini 3 Coarse-Grained Force Field for Carbohydrates [PDF]
The Martini 3 force field is a full re-parametrization of the Martini coarse-grained model for biomolecular simulations. Due to the improved interaction balance it allows for more accurate description of condensed phase systems. In the present work we develop a consistent strategy to parametrize carbohydrate molecules accurately within the framework of

Glyconanoparticles for colorimetric bioassays [PDF]
Carbohydrate molecules are involved in many of the cellular processes that are important for life. By combining the specific analyte targeting of carbohydrates with the multivalent structure and change of solution colour as a consequence of plasmonic ...

Crystal Structure of the Cysteine-Rich Domain of Mannose Receptor Complexed with a Sulfated Carbohydrate Ligand [PDF]
The macrophage and epithelial cell mannose receptor (MR) binds carbohydrates on foreign and host molecules. Two portions of MR recognize carbohydrates: tandemly arranged C-type lectin domains facilitate carbohydrate-dependent macrophage uptake of ...

Correlation between doping induced disorder and superconducting properties in carbohydrate doped MgB2 [PDF]
A comprehensive study of the effects of carbohydrate doping on the superconductivity of MgB2 has been conducted. In accordance with the dual reaction model, more carbon substitution is achieved at lower sintering temperature. As the sintering temperature is lowered, lattice disorder is increased.
