Characterization of cytoplasmic and nuclear genomes in the colorless alga Polytoma. III. Ribosomal RNA cistrons of the nucleus and leucoplast. [PDF]
The colorless alga Polytoma obtusum has been found to possess leucoplasts, and two kinds of ribosomes with sedimentation values of 73S and 79S. The ribosomal RNA (rRNA) of the 73S but not the 79S ribosomes was shown to hybridize with the leucoplast DNA (rho - 1.682 g/ml).

Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) negatively affects metabolic and neurobiological processes, including increases in hepatic β‐hydroxybutyrate (BHB) and reductions in hippocampal doublecortin (DCX). Both saffron extract and resistance training have shown independent benefits in improving glycemic and neuroplastic markers; however, their ...

Chloroplasts extend stromules independently and in response to internal redox signals [PDF]
A fundamental mystery of plant cell biology is the occurrence of "stromules," stroma-filled tubular extensions from plastids (such as chloroplasts) that are universally observed in plants but whose functions are, in effect, completely unknown.

The present work covers a series of novel herbicidal lead structures that possess a hexahydrofuro[3,4‐b]furan scaffold as a structural key feature, carrying ortho‐substituted aryloxy side chains. Based on an optimized synthetic approach a broader structure–activity relationship (SAR) study was carried out delivering some lead structures that show good ...

The aerial epidermis is a major site of quinolizidine alkaloid biosynthesis in narrow‐leafed lupin
Summary Lupins are promising protein crops that accumulate toxic quinolizidine alkaloids (QAs) in the seeds, complicating their end‐use. QAs are synthesized in green organs (leaves, stems, and pods) and a subset of them is transported to the seeds during fruit development.

Relationship between the Subunits of Leucoplast Pyruvate Kinase from Ricinus communis and a Comparison with the Enzyme from Other Sources [PDF]
Two cDNA clones, PK(p)alpha and PK(p)beta, for the leucoplast isozyme of pyruvate kinase have been isolated and characterized. A Southern blot of castor (Ricinus communis) DNA probed with PK(p)alpha indicates the presence of a single gene for PK(p). Most (1610 base pairs) of the sequence of both cDNAs is identical.

Nutritional Benefits of Lycopene and Beta‐Carotene: A Comprehensive Overview
This comprehensive review explores the sources, structures, physiochemical properties, absorption, metabolism, and functional advantages of lycopene and beta‐carotene, crucial carotenoid antioxidants for human health. We discuss their roles in disease prevention, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and metabolic disorders, as well as their ...

Abstract Mixotrophic protists are capable of acting both as primary producers and primary consumers at the base of the aquatic food web, thus constituting key organisms in ecosystems where they are abundant. However, their identity, abundance, ecological dynamics, and biogeochemical impact in aquatic ecosystems remain understudied in comparison to ...

Abstract Background In the Difficult Airway Society's 2015 “cannot intubate, cannot oxygenate” guideline, the emergency cricothyroidotomy is the final option when managing an unanticipated difficult airway. How often training for maintenance of this skill is required for anesthesiologists remains unknown.
