TDP‐43 proteinopathies and neurodegeneration: insights from Caenorhabditis elegans models
The manuscript explores structural and functional features of TDP‐43 and its worm homologue, TDP‐1, highlighting conserved and divergent structural and functional features. Using genetically engineered C. elegans models, key pathological features of TDP‐43 proteinopathies—including aggregation, neurodegeneration, and motor deficits—are recapitulated ...

Quorum sensing for improved production of industrially useful products from filamentous fungi [PDF]
Quorum sensing (QS) is a cell density dependant phenomena utilized as a communication process among microorganisms to regulate their physiological responses. QS depends on the production and release of low molecular weight, diffusible chemical signalling

Summary Nicotiana benthamiana serves as a unique platform for biopharmaceutical production, offering advantages such as efficient and scalable protein synthesis. In addition, custom N‐glycans can be engineered on biopharmaceutical glycoproteins. Yet, plant‐native glycosyltransferases and glycoside hydrolases need to be removed to prevent undesired ...

Posttranslational modifications of heterologous proteins expressed in Nicotiana benthamiana
Summary The success of Nicotiana benthamiana as a workhorse for heterologous protein production is closely linked to its accessibility and tolerance to genetic manipulation, allowing efficient engineering of posttranslational protein modifications (PTMs) that are critical for the function and stability of heterologous proteins.

Evolution of Plant Nucleotide-Sugar Interconversion Enzymes [PDF]
Nucleotide-diphospho-sugars (NDP-sugars) are the building blocks of diverse polysaccharides and glycoconjugates in all organisms. In plants, 11 families of NDP-sugar interconversion enzymes (NSEs) have been identified, each of which interconverts one NDP-

In-process epimerisation of alginates from Saccharina latissima, Alaria esculenta and Laminaria hyperborea [PDF]
Alginates are valued in many industries, due to their versatile properties. These polysaccharides originate from brown algae (Phaeophyceae) and some bacteria of the Azotobacter and Pseudomonas genera, consisting of 1 → 4 linked β-d-mannuronic acid (M ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...
