A short peptide derived from late embryogenesis abundant proteins enhances acid tolerance in Escherichia coli via modulation of two‐component regulatory systems

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Expression of the LEA‐K peptide in E. coli BL21 (DE3) improved bacterial viability under acidic stress (pH4), suggesting a protective function. RNA‐sequencing of LEA‐K‐expressing vs. non‐expressing cells revealed 283 differentially expressed genes (DEGs). In silico docking linked LEA‐K to two‐component systems (TCS) proteins (Rcs, BtsS/R, and EnvZ/OmpR)

Characterisation of a phylogenetically distinct PL25 family ulvan lyase from a seaweed biomass enriched metagenome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ulvan is a polysaccharide available from green seaweed with beneficial properties for various applications. The full potential of ulvan requires enzymatic degradation of the polymer, thus producing ulvan oligosaccharides. This study expands the armoury of characterised ulvan lyases.

Exploring the microbiota–skin–brain axis: Chicory extract biotransformed into a postbiotic neurocosmetic enhancer of social and sensory experience

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Application of CHICORY EXTRACT by a consumer has the ability to evoke positive emotional responses in individuals who come into tactile contact with the treated skin. Abstract Objective Measuring the influence of cosmetic ingredients on the microbiota‐skin‐brain axis is a difficult challenge.

Age‐Dependent Increase in Small Intestinal Permeability and Sex‐Dependent Absorptive Capacity in Cats (Felis catus)

open access: yesJournal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Age‐associated changes in intestinal permeability and function have not been studied in domestic cats, leaving a key factor in the relationship between age and digestive health in cats unexplored. Due to factors not currently understood, mature and senior cats may experience a loss of fat and protein digestibility, along with a loss of body ...

Comparative Antibacterial Activities of Some Monosaccharide and Disaccharide Benzoates

open access: yesOrbital: The Electronic Journal of Chemistry, 2015
For comparative antibacterial studies a number of furanose (3, 5), pyranose (7, 9, 11, 13), and disaccharide benzoates (14, 15) were prepared by direct benzoylation method.

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis

open access: yesJournal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...

Late Stage Mannan Metabolism in Cellvibrio japonicus Requires the Combined Action of a Mannosyl‐Glucose Phosphorylase and a Mannobiose Epimerase

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Model for the non‐PTS utilization of manno‐oligosaccharides by Cellvibrio japonicus. The Mgp130A and EpiA enzymes are essential for the utilization of mannose residues. ABSTRACT Manno‐oligosaccharides and their metabolism play important roles in gut health, pharmaceutical development, and renewable chemical production.
