Microbial communities and bioactive compounds in marine sponges of the family Irciniidae-a review [PDF]

, 2014
Marine sponges harbour complex microbial communities of ecological and biotechnological importance. Here, we propose the application of the widespread sponge family Irciniidae as an appropriate model in microbiology and biochemistry research. Half a gram

Enantiopurity‐Dependent Peptide Coacervates and Asymmetric Organocatalysis

Small, EarlyView.
Enantiopure peptide LLLPFF‐OCH3 forms liquid–liquid phase‐separated (LLPS) droplets that act as chiral microreactors for enantioselective aldol catalysis. Racemic mixtures fail to undergo LLPS, showing spontaneous enantiomeric self‐disproportionation (SDE).

Rapid and efficient synthesis of peptide fragments containing α- aminoisobutyric acid using Fmoc-amino acid chlorides/potassium salt of 1- hydroxybenzotriazole [PDF]

, 1998
The synthesis of peptides containing multiple Aib residues was accomplished using Fmoc-Aib-Cl in presence of KOBt. As no additional base was added, the duration of coupling reactions could be extended. Thus, the synthesis of the alamethicin 1-4 fragment,

Molecular characterization of transformer, transformer‐2, and doublesex genes in the carambola fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae, revealing potential for genetic pest management

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Globalization and climate change may be driving the spread of the quarantine fruit fly, Bactrocera carambolae, highlighting the need for ecofriendly control methods like the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), which relies on releasing sterile males to reduce wild populations.

Blubber Thickening Driven by UCP1 Inactivation: Insights from a Cetacean‐Like Transgenic Mouse Model

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
UCP1 inactivation of cetaceans in mice drives BAT whitening and iWAT hyperplasia, promoting fat accumulation for aquatic adaptation. Abstract Cetaceans possess thick blubber, a specialized adipose tissue essential for thermal insulation, a streamlined body form, energy storage, and buoyancy. However, the mechanisms that underpin this adaptation are not

Structural Basis for Trivalent Cross‐Linking of a Patient‐Derived IgE Antibody by the Major Peanut Allergen Ara h 2.0201

Allergy, EarlyView.
Graphical The crystal structure of a major peanut allergen Ara h 2.0201 in a complex with a human‐derived IgE Fab fragment has been determined. The immunocomplex shows the trivalent binding of Fabs, creating a cross‐linked structure effective in the formation of large complexes on the surface of effector cells. Hydroxylation of proline has implications
