OXidative Stress PREDictor: A Supervised Learning Approach for Annotating Cellular Oxidative Stress States in Inflammatory Cells

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
OxSpred, an eXtreme‐Gradient‐Boosting‐‐based supervised learning model, accurately annotates oxidative stress in innate immune cells at the single‐cell level, providing interpretable embeddings with significant biological relevance. This innovative tool revolutionizes the understanding of innate immune cell functions during inflammation and enhances ...

Cloning of the Bacillus thuringiensis serovar sotto chitinase (Schi) gene and characterization of its protein

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2005
Chitinase plays a positive role in the pathogenicity of Bacillus thuringiensis to insect pests. We used touchdown PCR to clone the chitinase (Schi) gene from Bacillus thuringiensis serovar sotto (Bt sotto) chromosomal DNA.

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Expression of a Serratia marcescens Chitinase Gene in Sinorhizobium fredii USDA191 and Sinorhizobium meliloti RCR2011 Impedes Soybean and Alfalfa Nodulation

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1999
A gene encoding chitinase from Serratia marcescens BJL200 was cloned into a broad-host-range vector (pRK415) and mobilized into Sinorhizobium fredii USDA191. Chitinolytic activity was detected in S.

Systemic Activation of the Antioxidant System by Root Priming With Non-Pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum in Flax Infected With Pathogenic Fusarium oxysporum. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Fusarium oxysporum Fo47 primes flax by locally suppressing pathogens in roots and systemically activating antioxidant defences in shoots, offering a sustainable plant protection strategy. ABSTRACT Plants rely on specialised adaptive mechanisms to enhance resistance against environmental stress.

Glucanases and Chitinases

, 2019
In many yeast and fungi, β-(1,3)-glucan and chitin are essential components of the cell wall, an important structure that surrounds cells and which is responsible for their mechanical protection and necessary for maintaining the cellular shape. In addition, the cell wall is a dynamic structure that needs to be remodelled along with the different phases

Reduced Dietary Protein Induces Changes in the Dental Proteome

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Low dietary protein (10%) from normal (20%) does change protein expression in tooth proteome and alter developmental pathways. Among the significant protein expressions changes are actin‐based myosins, tooth, and bone development proteins. Perplexingly tooth size is not altered, suggesting more nuanced phenotypic response to low dietary protein in ...

The use of edible insects in human food

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract The world population is expected to reach approximately 10 billion people by 2050, which will significantly increase global food demand and may lead to agricultural shortages and a higher risk of food insecurity. In this context, this review discusses the potential of insects as alternative sources of animal protein, addressing their ...
