Methionine and threonine synthesis are limited by homoserine availability and not the activity of homoserine kinase in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
The Plant Journal, 2005 SummaryHomoserine kinase (HSK) produces O‐phospho‐l‐homoserine (HserP) used by cystathionine γ‐synthase (CGS) for Met synthesis and threonine synthase (TS) for Thr synthesis. The effects of overexpressing Arabidopsis thaliana HSK, CGS, and Escherichia coli TS (eTS), each controlled by the 35S promoter, were compared.

ACS Chemical Biology, 2019 Virulence in the Gram-negative pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa relies in part on the efficient functioning of two LuxI/R dependent quorum sensing (QS) cascades, namely the LasI/R and RhlI/R systems that generate and respond to N-(3-oxo)-dodecanoyl-L ...

Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Bacteria need to be isolated in pure culture to gain access to the wide array of interesting functions they conceal. This is challenging because they do not live in isolation but instead in communities where they actively communicate and interact with ...

Quorum Sensing Activity of Mesorhizobium sp. F7 Isolated from Potable Water
The Scientific World Journal, 2014 We isolated a bacterial isolate (F7) from potable water. The strain was identified as Mesorhizobium sp. by 16S rDNA gene phylogenetic analysis and screened for N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) production by an AHL biosensor. The AHL profile of the isolate

Quorum Sensing Activity of Enterobacter asburiae Isolated from Lettuce Leaves
Sensors, 2013 Bacterial communication or quorum sensing (QS) is achieved via sensing of QS signaling molecules consisting of oligopeptides in Gram-positive bacteria and N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHL) in most Gram-negative bacteria.

Molecular Microbiology, 2014 SummaryDe novo synthesis of threonine from aspartate occurs via the β‐aspartyl phosphate pathway in plants, bacteria and fungi. However, the Trypanosoma brucei genome encodes only the last two steps in this pathway: homoserine kinase (HSK) and threonine synthase.

The Role of Transamination in the Synthesis of Homoserine in Peas [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1986 Incubation of intact pea plants (Pisum sativum), or detached shoots, in continuous light caused a substantial increase (up to 4-fold in 2 days) in levels of homoserine. Amino acids supplied to leaves in the transpiration stream enhanced the accumulation, with glutamate, aspartate, and asparagine causing similar enhancement.

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.A stable bio‐based nanocomposite coating for urinary catheters is developed using a simple, environmentally‐friendly sonochemical process. The coating, integrating antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and antioxidant properties, effectively tackled multiple early‐stage pathogenic factors associated with catheter‐associated urinary tract infections.

The Journal of Biochemistry, 2018 Homoserine dehydrogenase from Thermus thermophilus (TtHSD) is a key enzyme in the aspartate pathway that catalyses the reversible conversion of l-aspartate-β-semialdehyde to l-homoserine (l-Hse) with NAD(P)H. We determined the crystal structures of unliganded TtHSD, TtHSD complexed with l-Hse and NADPH, and Lys99Ala and Lys195Ala mutant TtHSDs, which ...
