Effects of BEIIb-Deficiency on the Cluster Structure of Amylopectin and the Internal Structure of Starch Granules in Endosperm and Culm of Japonica-Type Rice

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
It is known that one of starch branching enzyme (BE) isoforms, BEIIb, plays a specific role not only in the synthesis of distinct amylopectin cluster structure, but also in the formation of the internal structure of starch granules in rice endosperm ...

Genomic and Phenotypic Classification of Staphylococcus Species Isolated From Delhi Air

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 5, October 2026.
Multiple Staphylococcus spp. were isolated from the outdoor polluted air of the Indian Capital, New Delhi. The bacterial samples were collected from 6 different locations, and the whole genome of four Staphylococcus isolates was sequenced in their entirety. This study presents the comparative genomic analysis of these four isolates.

Bile Acid Metabolism as a Unifying Readout for Diet, Microbiome Function, and Gastrointestinal Disease

The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
Dietary components shape the gut microbiome, which modifies bile acids through transformations. The resulting bile acid pool is sensed by host receptors to regulate immunity, metabolism, and intestinal function. Targeted bile acid measurements provide a unifying readout to study diet‐microbiome interactions and to develop next‐generation dietary ...
