Extremely Low Concentrations of Acetic Acid Stimulate Cell Differentiation in Rice Blast Fungus
Summary: Metabolic switching and rewiring play a dynamic role in programmed cell differentiation. Many pathogenic microbes need to survive in nutrient-deficient conditions and use the glyoxylate cycle, an anaplerotic pathway of the tricarboxylic acid ...

Natural Products in Cancer Prevention and Therapy: Current Challenges and Future Directions
Natural products play a pivotal role in cancer therapy. They induce cancer cell death by reprogramming four metabolic pathways while precisely targeting the tumor microenvironment and immune cells. These compounds not only leverage novel delivery systems for innovative applications but also demonstrate unique therapeutic efficacy across clinical stages:

Enzymatic Modifications of Chitin, Chitosan, and Chitooligosaccharides
Chitin and its N-deacetylated derivative chitosan are two biological polymers that have found numerous applications in recent years, but their further deployment suffers from limitations in obtaining a defined structure of the polymers using traditional ...

Shotgun analysis on the peritrophic membrane of the silkworm Bombyx mori [PDF]
The insect midgut epithelium is generally lined with a uniquechitin and protein structure, the peritrophic membrane (PM),which facilitates food digestion and protects the gut epithelium.We used gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry toidentify the ...

Downregulation of a chitin deacetylase-like protein in response to baculovirus infection and its application for improving baculovirus infectivity [PDF]
Several expressed sequence tags (ESTs) with homology to chitin deacetylase-like protein (CDA) were selected from a group of Helicoverpa armigera genes whose expression changed after infection with H. armigera single nucleopolyhedrovirus (HearNPV).

Isolation, molecular cloning and characterisation of two genes coding chitin deacetylase from mucor circinelloides ibt-83 [PDF]
Chitosan is a linear N-deacetylated derivative of chitin, soluble in acetic solutions. The deacetylation of chitin can be achieved enzymatically using chitin deacetylase (ChDa) (EC 3.5.1.41), which hydrolyses the N-acetamido groups of N-acetyl-D ...
