Hyaluronan Synthase of Chlorella Virus PBCV-1
Sequence analysis of the 330-kilobase genome of the virus PBCV-1 that infects a chlorella-like green algae revealed an open reading frame, A98R, with similarity to several hyaluronan synthases. Hyaluronan is an essential polysaccharide found in higher animals as well as in a few pathogenic bacteria. Expression of the A98R

Effect of red ginseng NaturalGEL on skin aging
Background: In aged skin, degradation of collagen fibers, which occupy the majority of the extracellular matrix in the dermis, and changes of aquaporin 3 (AQP3) and skin constituents, such as hyaluronic acid and ceramide, cause wrinkles and decrease skin

Increased HA/CD44/TGFβ signaling implicates in renal fibrosis of a Col4a5 mutant Alport mice
X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) caused by X-linked COL4A5 gene mutation is a hereditary disease that affects mainly the kidney. XLAS patients, especially males whose single copy of the COL4A5 gene is disrupted, suffer from a life-threatening renal ...

Cellular O-Glycome Reporter/Amplification to explore O-glycans of living cells [PDF]
Protein O-glycosylation has key roles in many biological processes, but the repertoire of O-glycans synthesized by cells is difficult to determine. Here we describe an approach termed Cellular O-Glycome Reporter/Amplification (CORA), a sensitive method ...
