Extrinsic noise passing through a Michaelis-Menten reaction: A universal response of a genetic switch [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The study of biochemical pathways usually focuses on a small section of a protein interactions network. Two distinct sources contribute to the noise in such a system: intrinsic noise, inherent in the studied reactions, and extrinsic noise generated in other parts of the network or in the environment.

Exploring conformational energy landscape of glassy disaccharides by CPMAS 13C NMR and DFT/GIAO simulations. II. Enhanced molecular flexibility in amorphous trehalose [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Physics 126 (07/01/2007) 014510, 2006
This paper deals with the comparative use of the chemical shift surfaces to simulate experimental 13C CPMAS data on amorphous solid state disaccharides, paying particular attention to -1-1 linkage of trehalose, to -1,4 linkage between pyranose rings (lactose) and to linkage implying a furanose ring (sucrose).

Impact of short-chain galactooligosaccharides on the gut microbiome of lactose-intolerant individuals

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2016
Significance Approximately 75% of the global human population are lactose malabsorbers. In a previous clinical trial, it was shown that feeding a high-purity galactooligosaccharide (>95% GOS) could improve symptoms of lactose-intolerant subjects ...

Lactose intolerance and gastrointestinal cow’s milk allergy in infants and children – common misconceptions revisited

open access: yesThe World Allergy Organization Journal, 2017
Lactose is the main carbohydrate in human and mammalian milk. Lactose requires enzymatic hydrolysis by lactase into D-glucose and D-galactose before it can be absorbed.

Network Topology as a Driver of Bistability in the lac Operon [PDF]

open access: yesJ Comput Biol. 2011 Jun;18(6):783-94, 2008
The lac operon in Escherichia coli has been studied extensively and is one of the earliest gene systems found to undergo both positive and negative control. The lac operon is known to exhibit bistability, in the sense that the operon is either induced or uninduced. Many dynamical models have been proposed to capture this phenomenon.

Hybridization Induced Transparency in composites of metamaterials and atomic media [PDF]

open access: yesOpt. Express 19, 23573-23580 (2011), 2011
We report hybridization induced transparency (HIT) in a composite medium consisting of a metamaterial and a dielectric. We develop an analytic model that explains HIT by coherent coupling between the hybridized local fields of the metamaterial and the dielectric or an atomic system in general.

Regulation of metabolism in Escherichia coli during growth on mixtures of the non-glucose sugars: arabinose, lactose, and xylose

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Catabolite repression refers to the process where the metabolism of one sugar represses the genes involved in metabolizing another sugar. While glucose provides the canonical example, many other sugars are also known to induce catabolite repression ...

Observation of anisotropic diffusion of light in compacted granular porous materials [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 85, 040301 (2012), Rapid Communication, 2011
It is known that compaction of granular matter can lead to anisotropic mechanical properties. Recent work has confirmed the link to pore space anisotropy, but the relation between compression, mechanical properties and material microstructure remains poorly understood and new diagnostic tools are needed.

Bistability of the lac operon during growth of Escherichia coli on lactose and lactose + glucose [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2007
The lac operon of Escherichia coli exhibits bistability. Early studies showed that bistability occurs during growth on TMG/succinate and lactose + glucose, but not during growth on lactose. More recent studies with lacGFP-transfected cells show bistability with TMG/succinate, but not with lactose and lactose + glucose.

Lactose Intolerance in Adults: Biological Mechanism and Dietary Management

open access: yesNutrients, 2015
Lactose intolerance related to primary or secondary lactase deficiency is characterized by abdominal pain and distension, borborygmi, flatus, and diarrhea induced by lactose in dairy products.
