Insight into Potential Probiotic Markers Predicted in Lactobacillus pentosus MP-10 Genome Sequence
Lactobacillus pentosus MP-10 is a potential probiotic lactic acid bacterium originally isolated from naturally fermented Aloreña green table olives. The entire genome sequence was annotated to in silico analyze the molecular mechanisms involved in the ...

Metagenomics analysis reveals features unique to Indian distal gut microbiota.
Various factors including diet, age, geography, culture and socio-economic status have a role in determining the composition of the human gut microbiota. The human gut microbial composition is known to be altered in disease conditions.

Characterization of a Novel C-type Lectin against OsHV-1 infection in Scapharca broughtonii
As important pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), most C-type lectins (CTLs) are a class of Ca2+-dependent carbohydrate-binding proteins that are found to be involved in non-self-recognition and antiviral process. In this study, a new CTL, named SbCTL,

Promiscuity of the Euonymus Carbohydrate-Binding Domain
Plants synthesize small amounts of carbohydrate-binding proteins on exposure to stress. For example, on exposure to drought, high salt, wounding and by treatment with some plant hormones or by pathogen attack. In contrast to the ‘classical’ plant lectins

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.

Studies on carbohydrate metabolism in Bifidobacterium : isolation, characterisation and regulation of a sucrose-utilisation gene cluster in Bifidobacterium lactis [PDF]
Bibliography: leaves 167-195.The primary aim of the project was, therefore, to analyse carbohydrate metabolism for the identification of and/or the development of prebiotic substrates, and to provide a molecular characterisation for their utilisation ...
