Global analysis of mannitol 2-dehydrogenase in lactobacillus reuteri crl 1101 during mannitol production through enzymatic, genetic and proteomic approaches [PDF]
Several plants, fungi, algae, and certain bacteria produce mannitol, a polyol derived from fructose. Mannitol has multiple industrial applications in the food, pharmaceutical, and medical industries, being mainly used as a non-metabolizable sweetener in ...

Cloning and heterologous overexpression of three gap genes encoding different glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases from the plant pathogenic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000 [PDF]
The gammaproteobacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 is the causal agent of bacterial speck, a common disease of tomato. The mode of infection of this pathogen is not well understood, but according to molecular biological, genomic and ...

Enhanced ethanol production and reduced glycerol formation in fps1∆ mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae engineered for improved redox balancing [PDF]
Ethanol is by volume the largest fermentation product. During ethanol production by Saccharomyces cerevisiae about 4-5% of the carbon source is lost to glycerol production.

The human milk protein-lipid complex HAMLET disrupts glycolysis and induces death in Streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]
HAMLET is a complex of human a-lactalbumin (ALA) and oleic acid and kills several Gram-positive bacteria by a mechanism that bears resemblance to apoptosis in eukaryotic cells. To identify HAMLET's bacterial targets, here we used Streptococcus pneumoniae

Immobilized dimers of D‐glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase [PDF]
Immobilization of enzymes has proved useful for elucidating the problem of intersubunit interactions in the oligomeric proteins. Avaluable approach to the study of matrix-bound protein subunits was developed by Chan and applied to investigation of a number of enzymes [l-3] .

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...
