New Family of Ulvan Lyases Identified in Three Isolates from the Alteromonadales Order*
Ulvan is the main polysaccharide component of the Ulvales (green seaweed) cell wall. It is composed of disaccharide building blocks comprising 3-sulfated rhamnose linked to d-glucuronic acid (GlcUA), l-iduronic acid (IdoUA), or d-xylose (Xyl).

Cross‐Cohort Gut Microbiome Signatures of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Presentation and Treatment
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a prevalent disorder of gut‐brain interaction, affecting ≈11% of the global population. This meta‐analysis identified consistent gut microbiome signatures associated with IBS across studies in distinct geographies and cataloged microbiota‐targeted diet patterns for microbiome modulation in IBS.

Chemical Modification and Kinetic Studies on Glucarate Hydro‐Lyase from a Species of Pseudomonas A [PDF]
Glucarate hydro‐lyase, obtained from cells of Pseudomonas A grown on glucarate as the sole source of carbon, was purified 40‐fold in 70% yield. The effects of a variety of chemical modifiers and competitive inhibitors on the enzyme activity were studied.

Enantioselective synthesis of cyanohydrins catalysed by hydroxynitrile lyases - a review.
The first enantioselective synthesis was the selective addition of cyanide to benzaldehyde catalysed by a hydroxynitrile lyase (HNL). Since then these enzymes have been developed into a reliable tool in organic synthesis.

A palladium hydride (PdHx) film, fabricated on titanium implants, exhibits a lattice capable of capturing protons within the bacterial microenvironment, consequently inducing bacterial death. Furthermore, it mimics human antioxidant systems, reshaping the osteogenic immune microenvironment and promoting osteogenesis.

De‐nitrosylation Coordinates Appressorium Function for Infection of the Rice Blast Fungus
Nitric oxide (NO) is essential for Magnaporthe oryzae development and stress response. This research reveals that GSNOR‐mediated de‐nitrosylation is vital for appressorium formation and crucial for fungal infection. Proteomic analysis identifies a broad S‐nitrosylation network, with GSNOR regulating key proteins for infection.

Litchi postharvest physiology and handling
Abstract Litchi (Litchi chinensis Sonn.) fruit, with its bright red color and sweet and juicy aril, is an important fruit crop in Asia, Africa, Australia, and South America. A major cause of the postharvest loss of litchi fruit is browning and decay.
