Leveraging core enzyme structures for microbiota targeted functional regulation: Urease as an example

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
We present an innovative methodology that integrates core enzyme identification, protein structural characterization, regulator virtual screening, and functional validation to achieve precise microbiome functional regulation. As a proof of concept, we focused on the regulation of urea decomposition by the rumen microbiota in ruminants. This methodology

Endo Belly: A Mixed Methods Exploration of Body Image, Disordered Eating, and Psychopathology in Endometriosis

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective There is increasing interest in the impact of endometriosis on body image, however, there is minimal understanding of the presence and nature of disordered eating. As body image dissatisfaction is elevated in this population and a risk factor for eating disorders, it is likely that disordered eating is also elevated which has ...

Reducing dietary protein in dairy cow diets: implications for nitrogen utilization, milk production, welfare and fertility.

open access: yesAnimal, 2014
In light of increasing global protein prices and with the need to reduce environmental impact of contemporary systems of milk production, the current review seeks to assess the feasibility of reducing levels of dietary CP in dairy cow diets. At CP levels
