Living Electronics: Microbial Metabolism as Batteries, Resistors, and Capacitors

Advanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Three microorganisms are assigned the three elementary roles of a circuit on one sheet of paper. Dormant Bacillus subtilis spores germinate to switch the power source on; a photosynthetic Synechocystis biofilm sets resistance by the color and intensity of light; and a respiring Shewanella oneidensis biofilm stores charge. Together they form a printable

Freeze-Dried Ham Promotes Azoxymethane-Induced Mucin-Depleted Foci and Aberrant Crypt Foci in Rat Colon [PDF]

, 2010
Processed and red meat consumption is associated with the risk of colorectal cancer. Meta-analyses have suggested that the risk associated with processed meat is higher. Most processed meats are cured and cooked, which leads to formation of free nitrosyl

Agronomic and Nutritional Perspectives on Vegetable Crops in Africa

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
Vegetable production plays a key role in food security, nutrition, and livelihoods across Africa. Moreover, African indigenous vegetables emerge as underutilized yet highly valuable crops, rich in macro‐ and micronutrients, as well as bioactive compounds with an array of health benefits.

Serum heme-albumin: an allosteric protein.

, 2009
Heme scavenging by plasma proteins, including serum albumin (SA), provides protection against free-heme oxidative damage, limits access by pathogens to the heme, and contributes to iron homeostasis by recycling the heme iron. In turn, serum heme-albumin (

Spatially Informed Feature Selection and Machine Learning in Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Imaging for Cohort‐Scale Molecular Tissue Phenomics in Glioblastoma

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization imaging‐based identification of reliable small molecule markers across heterogeneous glioblastoma cohorts is challenging with intensity‐only methods. We present spatially informed feature selection (SIFS), a spatially informed framework that prioritizes molecules consistently colocalizing with histopathology.

How Heme Oxygenase-1 Prevents Heme-Induced Cell Death. [PDF]

, 2015
Earlier observations indicate that free heme is selectively toxic to cells lacking heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) but how this enzyme prevents heme toxicity remains unexplained.

Functional Specialization of Respiratory and Olfactory Mucus Revealed by Proteomic Profiling

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Mucus overlies the nasal mucosa in the respiratory and olfactory regions, which perform distinct physiological functions. However, proteomic differences between respiratory mucosa (RM) and olfactory cleft (OC) mucus remain unclear.

Construction of a Plasmid-Free Escherichia coli Strain with Enhanced Heme Supply to Produce Active Hemoglobins

Metabolites
Background: Heme is an important cofactor and plays crucial roles in the correct folding of hemoproteins. The synthesis of heme can be enhanced by the plasmid-based expression of heme biosynthetic genes.

Structure and Biosynthesis of Mangotoxin Produced by the Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
The structure of mangotoxin remained elusive for over two decades. Here, mangotoxin was isolated from the native producer, Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae, and was determined to be an alkyne‐containing dipeptide. Mangotoxin inhibited the growth of multidrug‐resistant human pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae.

Chlorination‐Driven BODIPY Fluorescent Probes for the Selective Monitoring of Myeloperoxidase Activity in Cells and Inflamed Mouse Models

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A meso‐carboxamide‐substituted BODIPY fluorescent probe reports myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity via electrophilic chlorination by MPO‐derived HOCl, generating a highly emissive chlorinated product with a ca. 40 nm bathochromic shift. Applications in quantitative MPO assays, cellular imaging of MPO‐derived HOCl, redox‐dependent discrimination of cancer ...
