Modular Molecular Design and Self‐Assembled Nanostructures of Saccharide‑Appended Cyclic Dipeptides for Glycosidase‑Responsive Supramolecular Hydrogels

Small, EarlyView.
Saccharide‐appended cyclic dipeptides are designed and developed as building blocks for glycosidase‐responsive supramolecular hydrogels. Their aqueous self‐assembly enables β‐galactosidase‐triggered gel‐to‐sol and neuraminidase‐triggered sol‐to‐gel transition systems, highlighting their potential as glycosidase‐responsive soft materials for biomedical ...

Degradable versus inert microplastics: Effects on soil organic carbon persistence via microbial drivers in an agroecosystem

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in terrestrial ecosystems, raising global concerns that they may disrupt soil organic carbon (SOC) cycling and undermine agroecosystem contributions to climate mitigation.

Secretome Analysis of Thermothelomyces thermophilus LMBC 162 Cultivated with Tamarindus indica Seeds Reveals CAZymes for Degradation of Lignocellulosic Biomass

Journal of Fungi
The analysis of the secretome allows us to identify the proteins, especially carbohydrate-active enzymes (CAZymes), secreted by different microorganisms cultivated under different conditions. The CAZymes are divided into five classes containing different

TcALS knockdown accelerates metamorphosis via insulin signaling in Tribolium castaneum

Insect Science, EarlyView.
RNAi silencing of TcALS accelerates larva‐to‐pupa metamorphosis in Tribolium castaneum. Abstract Insect metamorphosis is an evolutionary adaptation precisely regulated by nutritional and hormonal cues. The red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, a major stored‐product pest, serves as an excellent model for studying this process.

Data_Sheet_1_Forgotten Actors: Glycoside Hydrolases During Elongation Growth of Maize Primary Root.docx

, 2022
Plant cell enlargement is coupled to dynamic changes in cell wall composition and properties. Such rearrangements are provided, besides the differential synthesis of individual cell wall components, by enzymes that modify polysaccharides in muro.
