Chlorophyll Degradation by Peroxidase in Parsley Leaves
The mechanism of chlorophyll degradation by peroxidase in parsley leaves was studied. Chlorophylls present in the ethyl alcohol (EtOH) extract of parsley leaves were degraded by a peroxidase-hydrogen peroxide system. Purified chlorophylls, however, were not affected by the system, suggesting the existence of a substance which acts together with ...

Biomimetic liposome nanoreactors mimicking natural light‐harvesting complexes enable efficient photooxidation of NADH. Membrane‐anchored fluorescein transfers energy via FRET to membrane anchored eosin Y, oxidizing NADH. While symmetric membranes show little improvement, asymmetric chromophore distribution enhances photooxidation rates by up to 27 ...

Rice Overexpressing OsNUC1-S Reveals Differential Gene Expression Leading to Yield Loss Reduction after Salt Stress at the Booting Stage. [PDF]
Rice nucleolin (OsNUC1), consisting of two isoforms, OsNUC1-L and OsNUC1-S, is a multifunctional protein involved in salt-stress tolerance. Here, OsNUC1-S's function was investigated using transgenic rice lines overexpressing OsNUC1-S.

Picocyanobacteria and deep-ocean fluorescent dissolved organic matter share similar optical properties [PDF]
Marine chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and its related fluorescent components (FDOM), which are widely distributed but highly photobleached in the surface ocean, are critical in regulating light attenuation in the ocean. However, the origins

Insights into the regulation of DMSP synthesis in the diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana through APR activity, proteomics and gene expression analyses on cells acclimating to changes in salinity, light and nitrogen [PDF]
Despite the importance of dimethylsulphoniopropionate (DMSP) in the global sulphur cycle and climate regulation, the biological pathways underpinning its synthesis in marine phytoplankton remain poorly understood.

Production Country Origin Impact on Soybean Oil Quality
ABSTRACT Previous studies have suggested variability in soybean oil quality depending on geographic origin of the soybeans. In this study, 1035 crude degummed soybean oil (raw oil unrefined except for degumming) samples collected from vessels and crushers over five harvest years (2020–2024) were analyzed for 11 key quality attributes.

Functional and mutational analysis of the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein of thylakoid membranes. [PDF]
The precursor for a Lemna light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b protein (pLHCP) has been synthesized in vitro from a single member of the nuclear LHCP multigene family. We report the sequence of this gene.

Chlorella vulgaris biorefineries: sustainable biofuels and high‐value carbon capture
Abstract Global reliance on fossil fuels has created urgent economic and environmental challenges, yet large‐scale use of algal biomass remains limited by production costs. Industrial scaling is constrained by inefficient harvesting and the technical challenges of processing recalcitrant cell walls.
