Molecular architecture of the PBP2–MreC core bacterial cell wall synthesis complex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Bacterial wall biosynthesis is a complex process that requires the coordination of multiple enzymes. Here, the authors structurally characterize the PBP2:MreC complex involved in peptidoglycan elongation and cross-linking, and demonstrate that its ...

Yeast cell-wall synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1969
1. A study of wall synthesis has been made by following the incorporation of radioactive glucose and threonine into the cytoplasm and wall of yeast. 2. Both glucose and threonine are incorporated into a mannan glycopeptide. The glucose is also synthesized into a structural glucan of the wall. 3.

Examination of the xanthosine response on gene expression of mammary epithelial cells using RNA-seq technology

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Technology, 2018
Background Xanthosine treatment has been previously reported to increase mammary stem cell population and milk production in cattle and goats. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms associated with the increase in stem cell population and milk ...

Assignment of virus and antimicrobial resistance genes to microbial hosts in a complex microbial community by combined long-read assembly and proximity ligation

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2019
We describe a method that adds long-read sequencing to a mix of technologies used to assemble a highly complex cattle rumen microbial community, and provide a comparison to short read-based methods.

Impacts of microalgae pre-treatments for improved anaerobic digestion: Thermal treatment, thermal hydrolysis, ultrasound and enzymatic hydrolysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Anaerobic digestion (AD) of microalgae is primarily inhibited by the chemical composition of their cell walls containing biopolymers able to resist bacterial degradation.

Bacterial cell‐wall recycling [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2012
Many Gram‐negative and Gram‐positive bacteria recycle a significant proportion of the peptidoglycan components of their cell walls during their growth and septation. In many—and quite possibly all—bacteria, the peptidoglycan fragments are recovered and recycled. Although cell‐wall recycling is beneficial for the recovery of resources, it also serves as

The glutamate receptor gene GLR3.3: A bridge of calcium-mediated root development in poplar

open access: yesHorticultural Plant Journal
Poplar is one of the fastest-growing temperate trees in the world and is widely used in ornamental horticulture for shade. The root is essential for tree growth and development and its utilization potential is huge. Calcium (Ca), as a signaling molecule,

The Draft Genome of the Invasive Walking Stick, Medauroidea extradendata, Reveals Extensive Lineage-Specific Gene Family Expansions of Cell Wall Degrading Enzymes in Phasmatodea. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Plant cell wall components are the most abundant macromolecules on Earth. The study of the breakdown of these molecules is thus a central question in biology.
