Aerobic growth of Rhodococcus aetherivorans BCP1 using selected naphthenic acids as the sole carbon and energy sources [PDF]
Naphthenic acids (NAs) are an important group of toxic organic compounds naturally occurring in hydrocarbon deposits. This work shows that Rhodococcus aetherivorans BCP1 cells not only utilize a mixture of eight different NAs (8XNAs) for growth but they ...

ABSTRACT Background: Human macrophages generate antimicrobial reactive nitrogen species in response to infection by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Exposure to these redox‐reactive compounds induces stress response in Mtb, which can affect posttranslational modifications (PTM). Methods: Here, we present the global analysis of the PTM acylation of Mtb

The design and realization of synthetic pathways for the fixation of carbon dioxide in vitro [PDF]
The fixation of inorganic carbon and the conversion to organic molecules is a prerequisite for life and the foundation of the carbon cycle on Earth. Since the industrial revolution, this carbon cycle has become inbalanced and consequently the atmospheric

Mechanism of reconstitution/activation of the soluble PQQ-dependent glucose dehydrogenase from Acinetobacter calcoaceticus: a comprehensive study [PDF]
The ability to switch on the activity of an enzyme through its spontaneous reconstitution has proven to be a valuable tool in fundamental studies of enzyme structure/reactivity relationships or in the design of artificial signal transduction systems in bioelectronics, synthetic biology, or bioanalytical applications.

Differential transcriptome analysis of glandular and filamentous trichomes in Artemisia annua [PDF]
Background: The medicinal plant Artemisia annua is covered with filamentous trichomes and glandular, artemisinin producing trichomes. A high artemisinin supply is needed at a reduced cost for treating malaria. Artemisinin production in bioreactors can be

Do not forget interaction: Predicting fatality of COVID-19 patients using logistic regression [PDF]
Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, whether COVID-19 patients with high risks can be recovered or not depends, to a large extent, on how early they will be treated appropriately before irreversible consequences are caused to the patients by the virus. In this research, we reported an explainable, intuitive, and accurate machine learning model based on ...

Elucidation of the Complete \u3ci\u3eAzorhizobium\u3c/i\u3e Nicotinate Catabolism Pathway [PDF]
A complete pathway for Azorhizobium caulinodans nicotinate catabolism has been determined from mutant phenotype analyses, isolation of metabolic intermediates, and structural studies. Nicotinate serves as a respiratory electron donor to O2 via a membrane-

Optical Marking of Alcohol Induced Hemoglobin Modification [PDF]
It has been shown that conformational modifications of Hb induced by ethanol consumption can be visualized in optical spectra studying oxygenation kinetics of hemoglobin or mixing hemoglobin with Cibacron blue dye. Better dye affinity of blood proteins extracted from alcoholised rats with respect to those from non-alcoholised ones confirms that ethanol
