A Conserved Magnaporthe oryzae Effector Counteracts the Rice Ubiquitin‐Proteasome System by Disrupting the E2 Function to Suppress Immunity

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 4302-4316, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Pathogens commonly secrete effectors into host cells to facilitate invasion. In the host ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS), E3 ubiquitin ligases often target pathogen effectors for degradation, thereby enhancing immune responses. In turn, pathogen effectors frequently disrupt E3 ligase function to promote virulence. However, it remains largely

Acetylation Activity and Specificity of Peptidoglycan Deacetylase BsPdaC Acting in Reverse on Chitooligosaccharides

open access: yesChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 10, 27 May 2026.
Bacillus subtilis PdaC is the first peptidoglycan deacetylase able to act in reverse, acetylating a glucosamine oligomer (chitopentaose) with a pattern of acetylation mirroring the natural deacetylation reaction with unique final regioselectivity, acetylating all but the reducing end of D5.

Isolation, molecular cloning and characterisation of two genes coding chitin deacetylase from mucor circinelloides ibt-83 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
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 ...

Are Insects a Feasible Option or Just a Hyped Promise in Ruminant Nutrition? A Systematic Review of What Has Been Done and What Lies Ahead

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
Insects are emerging as sustainable alternatives for ruminants. This systematic review evaluates in vitro and in vivo evidence on insect‐based feeds in ruminant nutrition, discussing their outcomes and elucidating underlying mechanisms. Despite promising effects on rumen fermentation, growth, and product quality, inconsistencies related to insect ...

Extremely Low Concentrations of Acetic Acid Stimulate Cell Differentiation in Rice Blast Fungus

open access: yesiScience, 2020
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 ...

Metamorphosis and lncRNAs: A Close Relationship

open access: yesgenesis, Volume 64, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT The classical definition of metamorphosis is a post‐embryonic transformation, such as from a tadpole to a froglet. However, recent studies suggest this process occurs to some degree in all vertebrates, as the underlying endocrine and molecular pathways are highly conserved. With the advent of high‐throughput sequencing, transcriptomic data for

Enzymatic Modifications of Chitin, Chitosan, and Chitooligosaccharides

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2019
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]

open access: yesBMB Reports, 2012
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 ...

Kinetics of thermal deactivation of chitin deacetylase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the paper the thermal deactivation of chitin deacetylase separated from Absidia orchidis vel coerulea was investigated. Experiments were carried out at a temperature of 50ºC up to 24 hours.

Characterization of extracellular chitin deacetylase from Aneurinibacillus aneurinilyticus isolated from marine crustacean shell

open access: yesCurrent Research in Microbial Sciences
Chitosan is a promising biopolymer with wide range of applications. It is the deacetylated product of chitin. Commercially, it is produced from chitin via a harsh thermochemical process that has several shortcomings and heterogenous deacetylation product.
