Crystal structure of plant γ‐glutamyl peptidase 1: implications for sulfur metabolism and secondary metabolite biosynthesis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The crystal structures of Arabidopsis thaliana γ‐glutamyl peptidase 1 (GGP1), including the covalent intermediate state, were determined. GGP1 is involved in both glutathione degradation in the primary metabolism and glutathione conjugate processing in the secondary metabolism of glucosinolate and camalexin biosynthesis.

Effect of beneficial microbes applications on nutritional profiles of organic tomatoes revealed by LC‐MS‐qTOF metabolomics

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 2091-2099, 15 March 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND The use of microorganisms and biostimulants is increasingly supported in agriculture because of their advantageous impact on plant disease management, growth enhancement and the synthesis of beneficial bioactive secondary metabolites (SMs). Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is an important crop and is consumed worldwide because it is an

Characterization of N-Acylhomoserine Lactones Produced by Bacteria Isolated from Industrial Cooling Water Systems

Sensors, 2015
The cooling water systems are used to remove heat generated in the various industries. Biofouling of the cooling water systems causes blocking of condenser pipes and the heat exchanger tubes. In many Gram-negative bacteria, N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)

Effects of Probiotic Supplementation on Symptoms and Microbiome Characteristics in Patients With Non‐Celiac Gluten/Wheat Sensitivity: A Randomized Controlled Double‐Blind Trial

Food Frontiers, Volume 7, Issue 2, March 2026.
This randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial demonstrated that probiotic supplementation in individuals with non‐celiac gluten/wheat sensitivity improved tolerance to gluten reintroduction in nearly half of participants. The effect was associated with beneficial shifts in gut microbiome composition and function, including enhanced microbial ...
