Whole-genome sequence analysis of Bombella intestini LMG 28161T, a novel acetic acid bacterium isolated from the crop of a red-tailed bumble bee, Bombus lapidarius [PDF]
The whole-genome sequence of Bombella intestini LMG 28161(T), an endosymbiotic acetic acid bacterium (AAB) occurring in bumble bees, was determined to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying its metabolic capabilities.

Lactate dehydrogenase and glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase cooperatively regulate growth and carbohydrate metabolism during Drosophila melanogaster larval development [PDF]
The dramatic growth that occurs during Drosophila larval development requires rapid conversion of nutrients into biomass. Many larval tissues respond to these biosynthetic demands by increasing carbohydrate metabolism and lactate dehydrogenase (dLDH) activity. The resulting metabolic program is ideally suited to synthesize macromolecules and mimics the

Quantitative Comparison of Pyranose Dehydrogenase Action on Diverse Xylooligosaccharides
Pyranose dehydrogenases (PDHs; EC 1.1.99.29; AA3_2) demonstrate ability to oxidize diverse carbohydrates. Previous studies of these enzymes have also uncovered substrate-dependent regioselectivity, along with potential to introduce more than one carbonyl

Identifcation of small molecule enzyme inhibitors as broad-spectrum anthelmintics [PDF]
Targeting chokepoint enzymes in metabolic pathways has led to new drugs for cancers, autoimmune disorders and infectious diseases. This is also a cornerstone approach for discovery and development of anthelmintics against nematode and flatworm parasites.

Complete genome sequence of Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans strain (MPOB(T)). [PDF]
Syntrophobacter fumaroxidans strain MPOB(T) is the best-studied species of the genus Syntrophobacter. The species is of interest because of its anaerobic syntrophic lifestyle, its involvement in the conversion of propionate to acetate, H2 and CO2 during ...

The Influence of Carbohydrate Status and Low Temperature on the Respiratory Metabolism of Mitochondria from Etiolated Leaves of Winter Wheat [PDF]
The separate and combined effect of sucrose (12%, 7 days) and low temperature (2 °С, 7 days) on the growth of plants, the content of carbohydrates in the leaves and oxidative activity of mitochondria isolated from them has been studied on the etiolated ...

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency in pleiotropic carbohydrate-negative mutant strains of Rhizobium meliloti [PDF]
Several mutant strains of Rhizobium meliloti isolated after nitrosoguanidine mutagenesis were selected as unable to grow on mannose. Some of them also failed to grow on glucose, fructose, ribose, and xylose but grew on L-arabinose, galactose, and many other carbon sources.

Characterizing fruit ripening in plantain and Cavendish bananas: A proteomics approach [PDF]
The fruit physiology of banana cultivars other than Cavendish is poorly understood. To study the ripening process, samples were taken daily from plantain and Cavendish bananas and the ripening stages were determined. We present data from the green to the
