Insights into the potential for mutualistic and harmful host–microbe interactions affecting brown alga freshwater acclimation

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 703-723, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Microbes can modify their hosts' stress tolerance, thus potentially enhancing their ecological range. An example of such interactions is Ectocarpus subulatus, one of the few freshwater‐tolerant brown algae. This tolerance is partially due to its (un)cultivated microbiome.

A food-grade expression system for d-psicose 3-epimerase production in Bacillus subtilis using an alanine racemase-encoding selection marker. [PDF]

Bioresour Bioprocess, 2017
Background Food-grade expression systems require that the resultant strains should only contain materials from food-safe microorganisms, and no antibiotic resistance marker can be utilized. To develop a food-grade expression system for

Expression of d-psicose-3-epimerase from Clostridium bolteae and Dorea sp. and whole-cell production of d-psicose in Bacillus subtilis [PDF]

Annals of Microbiology, 2020
Abstract Purpose d-psicose-3-epimerase (DPEase) catalyses the isomerisation of d-fructose to d-psicose, a rare sugar in nature with unique nutritional and biological functions. An effective industrial-scale method is needed for d-psicose production.

Crystal structure of a novel homodimeric l‐ribulose 3‐epimerase from Methylomonus sp.

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 1621-1637, June 2021., 2021
d‐Allulose has potential as a low‐calorie sweetener which can suppress fat accumulation. The enzymes capable of d‐allulose production have attracted attention. Here, we report the X‐ray structure of a novel l‐ribulose 3‐epimerase from Methylomonas sp.

Exploring the Diversity of Sugar Compounds in Healthy, Prediabetic, and Diabetic Volunteers

Molecular Nutrition &Food Research, Volume 64, Issue 9, May 2020., 2020
A pilot study with a broad sugar profiling analysis during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) in the healthy and diabetic state is performed. Overall, 40 sugar compounds, including rare sugars, are detected in human plasma. A range of sugars reveal similar characteristic changes as glucose during an OGTT.
