The acid-tolerant L-arabinose isomerase from the mesophilic Shewanella sp. ANA-3 is highly active at low temperatures

Microbial Cell Factories, 2011
Background L-arabinose isomerases catalyse the isomerization of L-arabinose into L-ribulose at insight biological systems. At industrial scale of this enzyme is used for the bioconversion of D-galactose into D-tagatose which has many applications in ...

The grapevine microbiota: A review on the possible impacts of plant protection programs on phyllosphere microorganisms

Annals of Applied Biology, Volume 189, Issue 1, July 2026.
This review highlights recent advances in understanding how plant protection programs and alternative fungicides affect the taxonomic composition of the grapevine phyllosphere microbiota. Bacterial and fungal communities are primarily shaped by the plant compartment, vineyard location, and sampling time. Plant protection programs generally have a minor

Metabolic Fingerprinting of Urine Reveals Metabolite Changes in Women With Breast Cancer

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study uses metabolomics to compare urine, plasma and serum metabolite profiles across breast cancer, benign breast disease, symptomatic and healthy controls. Significant metabolic differences—especially in amino acids—were found between BC and other groups, with moderate correlations across biofluids, suggesting potential for non‐invasive BC ...

Effect of Diets Containing Sucrose vs. D‐tagatose in Hypercholesterolemic Mice [PDF]

Obesity, 2009
Effects of functional sweeteners on the development of the metabolic syndrome and atherosclerosis are unknown. The objective was to compare the effect of dietary carbohydrate in the form of sucrose (SUCR) to D‐tagatose (TAG; an isomer of fructose currently used as a low‐calorie sweetener) on body weight, blood cholesterol concentrations, hyperglycemia,

The Great Bustard (Otis tarda) and Common Crane (Grus grus) Utilize Food Resources via Gut Microbiota Remodeling During Wintering in the Yellow River Wetlands in Ordos City, Inner Mongolia, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study detected the diet and gut microbiota of great bustards and common cranes in the wintering duration in the Yellow River Wetlands of Inner Mongolia using high‐throughput sequencing technology. This study indirectly indicated that great bustards and common cranes are well‐adapted to the environment of the Yellow River Wetlands during the ...

Improving Catalytic Efficiency of L-Arabinose Isomerase from Lactobacillus plantarum CY6 towards D-Galactose by Molecular Modification

Foods
L-Arabinose isomerase (L-AI) has been commonly used as an efficient biocatalyst to produce D-tagatose via the isomerization of D-galactose. However, it remains a significant challenge to efficiently synthesize D-tagatose using the native (wild type) L-AI

Apophysomyces thailandensis (Mucorales, Mucoromycota), a new species isolated from soil in northern Thailand and its solubilization of non-soluble minerals [PDF]

MycoKeys, 2019
A new species of soil fungi, described herein as Apophysomyces thailandensis, was isolated from soil in Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. Morphologically, this species was distinguished from previously described Apophysomyces species by its narrower ...

Transcriptomic analysis reveals the hepatic response mechanisms of the Chinese spiny frog (Quasipaa spinosa) to Citrobacter freundii infection

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract To elucidate the pathogen and host response mechanisms underlying mass mortality in Quasipaa spinosa, dominant bacteria were isolated from diseased individuals and identified as Citrobacter freundii by morphological, physiological, and biochemical characterization, 16S rRNA sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis.

First Description and Characterisation of Lactococcus garvieae Strains Causing Septicaemic Disease in Farmed Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax; Linnaeus) in Spain

Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT This study presents the first description and characterisation of Lactococcus garvieae isolated from diseased European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) farmed in Spain. During autumn 2023, two fish farms were affected by infectious outbreaks causing moderate cumulative fish mortality (5%–10%). Diseased fish showed clinical signs of haemorrhagic
