Purification, Cloning, Characterization and Essential Amino Acid Residues Analysis of a New iota-Carrageenase from Cellulophaga sp QY3 [PDF]

, 2013
ι-Carrageenases belong to family 82 of glycoside hydrolases that degrade sulfated galactans in the red algae known as ι-carrageenans. The catalytic mechanism and some substrate-binding residues of family GH82 have been studied but the substrate ...

On growth and flow: hydraulic aspects of aboveground meristems

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 2, Page 722-728, January 2026.
Summary Water is essential for plant growth under both normal and stress conditions. Aboveground, two key meristems control plant development: the shoot apical meristem and the vascular cambium. Here, stem cell maintenance and cell differentiation are affected by hydraulic fluctuations across seasons, days, or even hours. Water fluxes, turgor pressure,

Sulfated galactans ameliorate the cellular senescence in dermal fibroblast cells

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research
Replicative senescence of dermal fibroblast is the primary mechanism of intrinsic skin aging. Recent research has focused on the different properties of sulfated galactans (SG) derived from the red seaweed Gracilaria fisheri.

Uncovering the molecular mechanisms of lignocellulose digestion in shipworms [PDF]

, 2018
Lignocellulose forms the structural framework of woody plant biomass and represents the most abundant carbon source in the biosphere. Turnover of woody biomass is a critical component of the global carbon cycle, and the enzymes involved are of increasing

Identification of β‐galactosidases along the secretory pathway of Nicotiana benthamiana that collectively hamper engineering of galactose‐extended glycans on recombinant glycoproteins

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 224-238, January 2026.
Summary Glycosylation is an important aspect for many biopharmaceuticals, including vaccines against parasitic helminths. Plants, especially Nicotiana benthamiana, have proven to be excellent production hosts for biopharmaceuticals with tailor‐made glycosylation.

Imaging of Molecular and Developmental Responses to Abiotic Stresses in Reproductive Tissues

Physiologia Plantarum, Volume 178, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT Abiotic stresses, such as drought, salinity, and extreme temperatures, have profound effects on plant reproduction, often leading to reduced fertility and yield. Reproduction in plants involves complex interactions between diverse cells, necessitating spatiotemporal resolution to understand how stress impacts each component of this intricate ...
