Uncovering differences in the composition and function of phage communities and phage-bacterium interactions in raw soy sauce

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionAlthough the composition and succession of microbial communities in soy sauce fermentation have been well-characterized, the understanding of phage communities in soy sauce remains limited.MethodsThis study determined the diversity, taxonomic

The parallel lives of polysaccharides in food and pharmaceutical formulations

open access: yes, 2015
The present opinion article discusses how polysaccharide structures can be used in both food and pharmaceutical formulations. We distinguish two regions depending on moisture content where polysaccharides form structures with distinct functional ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

The ubiquitin ligase RNF115 is required for the clearance of damaged lysosomes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Upon lysosomal rupture, an E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF115 translocates from the cytosol to the damaged lysosomal membrane. Moreover, RNF115 depletion impairs the clearance of damaged lysosomes, identifying it as a key regulator of lysosomal quality control.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Reference materials for food authentication

open access: yesAnalytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry
Abstract The global food industry faces significant challenges in ensuring the safety and authenticity of food products. Economic adulteration and counterfeiting of food are estimated to cost the industry US$30–40 billion annually. Analytical testing plays a vital role in detecting food fraud.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Application of complexes from phycocyanin and pectin in a model beverage system

open access: yesFuture Foods
The blue-appearing phycocyanin from the cyanobacteria Arthrospira platensis undergoes severe color losses during food production or storage. Thus, many studies have looked at stabilizing phycocyanin against processing conditions such as heat with ...

Should Weights and Risk Categories Be Used for Inspection Scores To Evaluate Food Safety in Restaurants?

open access: yes, 2016
The objective of this study was to verify the characteristics of food safety inspections, considering risk categories and binary scores. A cross-sectional study was performed with 439 restaurants in 43 Brazilian cities.
