Hevea brasiliensis seeds: A novel sustainable feedstock for ethanol production

Vietnam Journal of Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is cultivated on a large scale mainly for the extraction of latex in Brazil and Southeast Asia, also generating large quantities of seeds. These seeds currently do not have large‐scale applications and may thus be considered as a residue.

Comparative evaluation of noncanonical amino acids as site‐specific NMR probes for the complex of E. coli SSB with single‐stranded DNA without isotope labelling

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Genetic encoding of noncanonical amino acids (ncAA) enables their site‐specific installation in proteins. This work compares the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) performance of different ncAAs in a large protein−DNA complex (~ 100 kDa) without isotope labelling. The ncAAs deliver readily detectable NMR signals in the complex between E.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, endotoxin) of Proteus bacteria-chemical structure, serological specificity and the role in pathogenicity [PDF]

, 2008
Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) of Gram-negative bacteria are composed of three regions: О-specific chain (OPS), the core oligosaccharide and lipid A. All three regions of Proteus LPS were studied. The differences in the structure of OPS serve as the basis

PLP Homeostasis Protein Is Required for Efficient Maturation of Aromatic Amino Acid Aminotransferase in Salmonella enterica

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
Cellular pool of aromatic amino acid aminotransferase proteins represented as holo‐ or apo‐ enzymes, reflecting presence or absence of associated PLP. Status of PLPHP is implicated in determining the ratio of holo‐ and apo‐TyrB. ABSTRACT Pyridoxal 5′‐phosphate (PLP) is an essential cofactor required for metabolic functions including amino acid ...

Characteristics and Kinetics of the Aldonic Acids Production using Whole-cell catalysis of Gluconobacter oxydans

BioResources, 2015
The characteristics and kinetics of whole-cell catalysis were investigated individually or simultaneously relative to the bio-oxidation of five monosaccharides to corresponding aldonic acids using Gluconobacter oxydans.

In Salmonella Typhimurium, YiiD Modulates cAMP Levels in Lag Phase During Growth on Succinate

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
The YiiD enzyme, found by others to perform a redundant role in fatty acid biosynthesis, is found to be unexpectedly required for the early increase in cAMP in lag phase during growth on succinate. This intriguing finding suggests a mechanistic link may exist between fatty acid biosynthesis and catabolite repression. ABSTRACT In Salmonella Typhimurium (

Cyclophilin A‐mediated cis/trans isomerization modulates RIN4 to control intracellular rhizobial infection in legumes

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary In most legume‐rhizobium symbioses, rhizobial colonization occurs through host‐derived intracellular infection threads, which enable rhizobial recruitment while presumably modulating the host immune system to prevent rejection. To investigate post‐translational regulation of immune responses during rhizobial infection, we focused on Cyclophilin

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 ...
