Assessment of the Role and Origin of S* in Orange Carotenoid Protein Photoconversion [PDF]
The orange carotenoid protein (OCP) is the water-soluble mediator of non-photochemical quenching in cyanobacteria, a crucial photoprotective mechanism in response to excess illumination. OCP converts from a globular, inactive state (OCPo) to an extended, active conformation (OCPr) under high-light conditions, resulting in a concomitant redshift in the ...

Association between serum carotenoids and bacterial vaginosis infection among American women
Background Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a widely occurring vaginal inflammation in women of childbearing age caused by dysbiosis of the vaginal flora. Few studies have investigated the effect of serum carotenoids on the development and pathogenesis of BV.

Prebiotic Fatty Acid Vesicles through Photochemical Dissipative Structuring [PDF]
We describe the photochemical dissipative structuring of fatty acids from CO and CO2 saturated water under the solar UVC and UVA photon potential prevalent at Earth's surface during the Archean. Their association into vesicles and their subsequent association with other fundamental molecules of life such as RNA, DNA and carotenoids to form the first ...
