Mass Transport Limitations and Kinetic Consequences of Corn Stover Deacetylation
Frontiers in Energy Research, 2022 Alkaline pretreatment of herbaceous feedstocks such as corn stover prior to mechanical refining and enzymatic saccharification improves downstream sugar yields by removing acetyl moieties from hemicellulose.

Chitosan: Sources, Processing and Modification Techniques
Gels, 2022 Chitosan, a copolymer of glucosamine and N-acetyl glucosamine, is derived from chitin. Chitin is found in cell walls of crustaceans, fungi, insects and in some algae, microorganisms, and some invertebrate animals. Chitosan is emerging as a very important

Drugs in R & D, 2008 Recent research has elucidated another mechanism for gene expression and signalling protein regulation in malignant cells. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) have been associated with silencing of tumour suppressor genes, and with other functions that promote malignant cell phenotype, such as the function of the chaperone protein heat shock protein (HSP)-90.

Piezoelectric Performance of Microbial Chitosan Thin Film Derived from Aspergillus oryzae
International Journal of Renewable Energy Development, 2022 In this study, chitosan thin film derived from Aspergillus oryzae cell walls was fabricated and characterised. First, the chitosan from the fungal biomass was extracted (0.18 g/g) with 52.25% of degree of deacetylation obtained through Fourier transform ...

Recycling Cohesin Rings by Deacetylation [PDF]
Molecular Cell, 2010 In this issue of Molecular Cell, Beckouët et al. (2010) and Borges et al. (2010) identify the enzyme responsible for cohesin deacetylation in anaphase and show that de novo acetylation is required for cohesion establishment in the next cell cycle.
