Evaluation of Torula Yeast (Candida utilis) Single Cell Proteins as a Partial Replacement for Soybean Meal in Broiler Diets: Effects on Productive Performance, Meat Quality Traits, and Plasma Metabolome

Journal of Animal Physiology and Animal Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over recent years the use of yeast in feedstuffs has gained momentum due to novel developments in single‐cell proteins (SCPs). SCPs are considered a sustainable protein source, as their production enable to convert low‐value substrates (including industrial/agricultural wastes) into feed, with a related reduced environmental impact.

Characterization of a pentonolactonase involved in D-xylose and L-arabinose catabolism in the haloarchaeon Haloferax volcanii.

FEMS Microbiology Letters, 2017
Haloferax volcanii degrades the pentoses D-xylose and L-arabinose via an oxidative pathway to α-ketoglutarate as an intermediate. The initial dehydrogenases of the pathway, D-xylose dehydrogenase (XDH) and L-arabinose dehydrogenase (L-AraDH) catalyze the

A Single‐Nucleotide Substitution Generates a de Novo Promoter That Activates a Latent Metabolic Bypass in Escherichia coli

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
A chromosomal mutation allows bypass of deletion of the Escherichia coli fabH gene. The bypass results from creation of a new promoter that drives increased madA transcription, resulting in increased synthesis of acetyl‐acyl carrier protein by decarboxylation of malonyl‐acyl carrier protein.

The Role of torS and torT Transcription in Driving a Bet‐Hedging Strategy for Trimethylamine N‐Oxide Reductase Expression in Escherichia coli

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Low basal activity of divergent promoters driving transcription of the trimethylamine N‐oxide (TMAO) sensor TorT and kinase TorS is integral to an O2‐regulated bet‐hedging strategy for continued E. coli growth upon the onset of anaerobiosis. This, along with repression by IscR, promotes noise in the TorS to TorT ratio, which is critical for adaptation ...

Extending the Farquhar–von Caemmerer–Berry photosynthesis model to account for various photorespiratory bypasses

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
We extend a widely used C3‐photosynthesis model to account for various photorespiratory bypasses, thereby, providing a useful resource and framework that enforces future novel bypass work and scrutinize if the results go counter to theory. Our model analyses show that of the 17 published bypass pathways, full‐decarboxylating bypasses (that have been ...

Production and Utilization of L-Arabinose in China

, 2018
L-arabinose is a newly developed low-caloric monosaccharide, which has many biomedical and health effects, especially intestinal sucrase inhibition effect. L-arabinose is mainly produced by chemical or enzymatic hydrolysis of hemicellulose.

Iterative Genome Engineering Platform Enables Efficient Sucrose Biosynthesis From CO2 in Photosynthetic Synechococcus elongatus UTEX 2973

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The single crossover occurring via homologous recombination is a common phenomenon existing among microbes like Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Vibrio natriegens, Gluconobacter oxydans and most cyanobacteria species, threatening the stability of engineered strains and challenging iterative genetic engineering. Among them, we take the fast‐

Activation of the l-fucose utilization cluster in Campylobacter jejuni induces proteomic changes and enhances Caco-2 cell invasion and fibronectin binding

Heliyon
Most Campylobacter jejuni isolates carry the fucose utilization cluster (Cj0480c-Cj0489) that supports the metabolism of l-fucose and d-arabinose. In this study we quantified l-fucose and d-arabinose metabolism and metabolite production, and the impact ...
