Structure-function analysis of plant fructosyltransferases [PDF]

, 2005
Fructans are an important class of plant carbohydrates that consist of linear or branched chains of fructosyl moieties. Their synthesis requires fructosyltransferases (FTs) that catalyze the transfer of fructosyl units from a donor substrate (sucrose ...

Metatranscriptomics Unravel Composition, Drivers, and Functions of the Active Microorganisms in Light-Flavor Liquor Fermentation

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
The microbial community in the fermented pit determines the quantity and quality of light-flavor liquor. Genetic diversity and the potential functions of the microbial community are often analyzed by DNA-based omics sequencing.

Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes from Alkaliphiles

Journal of Applied Glycoscience, 2003
The market in industrial enzymes for detergents, starch, food, fabric, and so on has been estimated at more than 1600 million US dollars in 1999. The usage of detergent enzymes, such as protease, cellulase, aamylase, and lipase, forms 35% of the world market.

Generation of a Library of Carbohydrate-Active Enzymes for Plant Biomass Deconstruction

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
In nature, the deconstruction of plant carbohydrates is carried out by carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes). A high-throughput (HTP) strategy was used to isolate and clone 1476 genes obtained from a diverse library of recombinant CAZymes covering a variety of sequence-based families, enzyme classes, and source organisms.

Time‐restricted feeding prior to Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection reduces tissue CD4+ T cells with limited impact on bacterial clearance

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐restricted feeding (TRF) in mice increased liver fatty acid oxidation and decreased fatty acid biosynthesis. These alterations persisted when TRF was discontinued and the host was infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Pre‐exposure to TRF did not alter tissue (lung and spleen) mycobacterial burden but significantly reduced CD3+ T cells in lungs

Natural Products as Geroprotective Modulators in Diabetic Nephropathy: A Mechanistic Framework Integrating Aging Hallmarks and the AMPK–SIRT1–Nrf2 Axis

Aging and Cancer, EarlyView.
Natural products target the aging kidney in diabetic nephropathy by restoring the AMPK–SIRT1–Nrf2 axis, reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, fibrosis, and cellular senescence while enhancing mitochondrial biogenesis and antioxidant defenses.

Mapping the active site of the bacterial enzyme LpxC using novel carbohydrate-based hydroxamic acid inhibitors

, 2005
LpxC (UDP-3-O-(R-3-hydroxymyristoyl)-GlcNAc deacetylase), an enzyme involved in the biosynthesis of lipid A, is crucial for the growth of Gram-negative bacteria.

Adaptive changes in enzyme activity and metabolic pathways in adipose tissue from meal-fed rats

Journal of Lipid Research, 1966
A number of metabolic factors and the activity of a number of enzymes were determined in meal-fed (animals fed a single daily 2 hr meal) and nibbling (ad libitum-fed) rats.
