Toward understanding the catalytic mechanism for two classes of bacterial phospholipid N‐methyltransferases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Phospholipid N‐methyltransferases (Pmts) synthesize phosphatidylcholine in many bacteria. In this study, we compared the catalytic mechanisms of two bacterial Pmt classes: the Rhodobacter (R‐) and the Sinorhizobium (S‐) type. Representative enzymes for each class were derived from Rubellimicrobium thermophilum and Agrobacterium tumefaciens ...

Ramoplanin at bactericidal concentrations induces bacterial membrane depolarization in Staphylococcus aureus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Ramoplanin is an actinomycetes-derived antibiotic with broad-spectrum activity against Gram-positive bacteria that has been evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of gastrointestinal vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) and Clostridium ...

Investigation into the delivery and evaluation of a unique Avena sativa (Oat) Lipid Extract on skin barrier using LC‒MS/MS, Raman spectroscopy, immunostaining analysis and skin efficacy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Oat lipids are rich in ceramides. In this investigation, we analysed the delivery of a specific Oat Lipid Extract derived from Avena sativa, comprising ‘skin identical’ ratios of fatty acids, ceramides and cholesterol/sterol. This investigation is the first reported investigation of oat lipids utilizing Raman spectroscopy for the ...

Therapeutic approaches to enhance PINK1/Parkin mediated mitophagy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The discovery of rare familial monogenic forms of early-onset Parkinson's disease has led to the identification of a mitochondrial quality control process as a key player in this disease.

α-d-Glucopyranosyl-, d-alanyl- and l-lysylcardiolipin from gram-positive bacteria: analysis by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1998
Cardiolipin species substituted on O2 of the middle glycerol moiety with α-d-glucopyranosyl, d-alanyl and l-lysyl residues were isolated from different gram-positive bacteria. There respective structures were elucidated by positive and negative mode fast

Plant Peptides on the Rise: From Historical Insight to Future Applications

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant peptides constitute a rapidly expanding class of signalling molecules essential to plant physiology, mediating key processes such as development, stress adaptation, and immune responses. This review traces the history of plant peptide research, from the seminal discovery of systemin to the recent identification of non‐canonical peptides (

Redundant Glycerol‐3‐Phosphate Acyltransferases Regulate Thermo‐Sensitive Genic Male Sterility in Rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Thermo‐sensitive genic male sterility (TGMS) lines play a pivotal role in two‐line hybrid rice breeding. However, the availability of elite TGMS germplasm remains limited, and the molecular mechanisms underlying fertility transition of TGMS lines are still poorly understood.

Archaeosomes made of Halorubrum tebenquichense total polar lipids: A new source of adjuvancy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Archaeosomes (ARC), vesicles prepared from total polar lipids (TPL) extracted from selected genera and species from the Archaea domain, elicit both antibody and cell-mediated immunity to the entrapped antigen, as well as efficient cross ...
