An extracellular transglutaminase is required for apple pollen tube growth

open access: yes, 2010
An extracellular form of the calcium-dependent protein-crosslinking enzyme TGase (transglutaminase) was demonstrated to be involved in the apical growth of Malus domestica pollen tube.

Direct Metal Deposition of Graphene–Ti28Nb35.4Zr Matrix Composites With Enhanced Mechanical, Corrosion, and Biocompatibility Properties for Bone Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene nanoplatelet (0.1 wt.%) reinforcement significantly enhances the performance of β Ti‐28Nb‐35.4Zr alloy. Grain refinement, reduced water contact angle, and improved surface characteristics promote osteoblast adhesion and complete surface coverage after 7 days.

Biodegradable and Recyclable Luminescent Mixed‐Matrix‐Membranes, Hydrogels, and Cryogels based on Nanoscale Metal‐Organic Frameworks and Biopolymers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 43, 29 May 2026.
The study presents biodegradable and recyclable mixed‐matrix membranes (MMMs), hydrogels, and cryogels using luminescent nanoscale metal‐organic frameworks (nMOFs) and biopolymers. These bio‐nMOF‐MMMs combine europium‐based nMOFs as probes for the status of the materials with the biopolymers agar and gelatine and present alternatives to conventional ...

A flax fibre proteome: identification of proteins enriched in bast fibres

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2008
Background Bast fibres from the phloem tissues of flax are scientifically interesting and economically useful due in part to a dynamic system of secondary cell wall deposition.

Cellulose, cell walls, and cell wall deposition and the COBRA family of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored cell wall proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yes, 2014
An increasing global shift towards sustainable fuels has placed emphasis on the use of trees as potential bioenergy crops. For this to be economical, trees must be bred or designed to grow rapidly, efficiently, and to be easily processed into bioproducts.

Human Gut Bacteria and Lipidic Nanoparticles: Particle Composition Predicts Structural Transformation and Bacterial Biocompatibility

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lipidic nanoparticles (LNPs) were incubated with 21 gut bacteria frequently associated with the human microbiome. SAXS revealed that ∼75% of tested species induced structural transformations in monoolein LNPs, whereas phytantriol and phospholipid formulations remained unaffected.

Characterization of SNP1, a Cell Wall-Degrading Trypsin, Produced During Infection by Stagonospora nodorum

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000
Stagonospora (= Septoria) nodorum when grown in liquid culture with wheat cell walls as the sole carbon and nitrogen source secretes numerous extracellular depoly-merases, including a rapidly produced, alkaline, trypsin-like protease (SNP1).
