Immediate perception of a reward is distinct from the reward’s long-term salience

open access: yeseLife, 2016
Reward perception guides all aspects of animal behavior. However, the relationship between the perceived value of a reward, the latent value of a reward, and the behavioral response remains unclear.

Characterization of d-xylose reductase, XyrB, from Aspergillus niger

open access: yesBiotechnology Reports, 2021
d-xylose reductase is a member of the aldo-keto reductase family, and is involved in d-xylose and l-arabinose conversion through the Pentose Catabolic Pathway (PCP) in fungi.

Pentose metabolism in Mycobacterium smegmatis: comparison of L-arabinose isomerases induced by L-arabinose and D-galactose [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1978
D-Galactose, which did not serve as a growth substrate, was found to induce an L-arabinose isomerase of similar properties to the L-arabinose-induced L-arabinose isomerase. In both cases the pH profiles, pH stability, optimum temperature, heat stability, substrate specificity, metal ion requirements, mobility on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and ...

The Improvement of Bioethanol Production by Pentose-Fermenting Yeasts Isolated from Herbal Preparations, the Gut of Dung Beetles, and Marula Wine

open access: yesInternational Journal of Microbiology, 2020
Efficient conversion of pentose sugars to ethanol is important for an economically viable lignocellulosic bioethanol process. Ten yeasts fermenting both D-xylose and L-arabinose were subjected to an adaptation process with L-arabinose as carbon source in

Protective effects of L-arabinose in high-carbohydrate, high-fat diet-induced metabolic syndrome in rats

open access: yesFood & Nutrition Research, 2015
Background: L-Arabinose is a non-caloric sugar, which could affect glucose and lipid metabolism and suppress obesity. However, few reports have described the effect of L-arabinose in metabolic syndrome, a combination of medical disorders that increase ...

Tandem Duplication‐Driven Neofunctionalization of UDP‐Glycosyltransferases Shapes the Diversification of Triterpenoid Saponins in the Cucurbitaceae

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a chromosome‐level genome assembly of Siraitia grosvenorii and, through comparative genomics, uncover a conserved UGT73 tandem array driving triterpenoid saponin diversification in Cucurbitaceae. Crystalized SgUGT73AM30 further reveals the regioselectivity mechanism underlying its catalytic activity.

Response Surface Methodology for Optimization of L-Arabinose/Glycine Maillard Reaction through Microwave Heating

open access: yesJournal of Food Quality, 2022
L-Arabinose is a low-calorie sweetener that inhibits sucrose absorption by inhibiting sucrase activity in the human intestinal tract. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize the processing parameters of the L-arabinose/glycine Maillard

The effect of replacing sucrose with L-arabinose in drinks and cereal foods on blood glucose and plasma insulin responses in healthy adults

open access: yes, 2020
Glycaemic control is important in metabolic diseases such as diabetes and impaired glucose tolerance. L-arabinose inhibits the hydrolysis of sucrose into glucose and fructose. So far little is known about its functionality in different food matrices.
