Differential regulation of the Epr3 receptor coordinates membrane-restricted rhizobial colonization of root nodule primordia

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
TheLotus japonicus LysM receptor kinase EPR3 perceives rhizobial exopolysaccharides to initiate infection of the root epidermis. Here the authors show that EPR3 also mediates infection thread progression in the root cortex and show that key transcription

Changes of starch during microwave treatment of rice

open access: yesCzech Journal of Food Sciences, 2003
The properties of rice after microwave irradiation were evaluated by means of amylograph and enzymic determination of the total and the damaged starch. The content of the total starch was not affected by the immediate energy output used for irradiation ...

Biochemical Characterization and Synthetic Application of WciN and Its Mutants From Streptococcus pneumoniae Serotype 6B

open access: yesFrontiers in Chemistry, 2022
The biochemical properties of α-1,3-galactosyltransferase WciN from Streptococcus pneumoniae serotype 6B were systemically characterized with the chemically synthesized Glcα-PP-(CH2)11-OPh as an acceptor substrate.

Protein O‐glycosylation in the Bacteroidota phylum

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Species of the Bacteroidota phylum exhibit a unique O‐glycosylation system. It modifies noncytoplasmic proteins on a specific amino acid motif with a shared glycan core but a species‐specific outer glycan. A locus of multiple glycosyltransferases responsible for the synthesis of the outer glycan has been identified.

Microalgae cultivation for lipids and carbohydrates production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Microalgae are photoautotrophic microorganisms that can produce energy both by using sunlight, water and CO2 (phototrophic metabolism) and by using organic sources such as glucose (heterotrophic metabolism).

Menthol‐like cooling compounds, including (R)‐(‐)‐carvone, inhibit the human bitter taste receptors for saccharin and acesulfame K

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We report that some menthol‐like cooling compounds, including (R)‐(‐)‐carvone, act as inhibitors of TAS2R31 and TAS2R43, which are taste receptors responsible for the intrinsic bitter aftertastes of saccharin and acesulfame K. However, there was little correlation between the intensity of the cooling sensation and the potency of bitterness inhibition ...

Transcriptional regulation of neuropeptide receptors underlies context‐dependent adaptation in Drosophila melanogaster

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Under environmental changes, the expression level of neuropeptide (NP) and neuropeptide receptor (NPR) genes changes to confer context‐dependent adaptation to the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. Through finding more regulatory elements in the NPR genes in comparison with their ligands (NPs), we found that NPR‐biased transcriptional regulation ...

Rare sugar l-sorbose exerts antitumor activity by impairing glucose metabolism

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
The rare sugar L-sorbose is shown to decrease cell viability and increase apoptotic cells in culture and to enhance the effect of tumor chemotherapy in combination with sorafenib in mouse xenograft models.

Protein-carbohydrate interactions during fertilization [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Interaction between gametes during fertilization is at least in part regulated by carbohydrate moieties of the zona pellucida (ZP) and carbohydrate binding proteins of the sperm surface. This review focuses on the protein-carbohydrate interactions during
