Fluorescent Pseudomonas and cyclic lipopeptide diversity in the rhizosphere of cocoyam (Xanthosoma sagittifolium) [PDF]
, 2019 Cocoyam (Xanthosoma sagittifolium (L.)), an important tuber crop in the tropics, is severely affected by the cocoyam root rot disease (CRRD) caused by Pythium myriotylum. The white cocoyam genotype is very susceptible while the red cocoyam has some field

Research Progress in Lipopeptide Biosurfactants
DEStech Transactions on Engineering and Technology Research, 2017 Biosurfactants are the hydrophilic and oleophilic metabolites produced by microorganisms under certain conditions. Lipopeptide biosurfactants are one kind of biosurfactants, which has gone through the most extensive research, and have a lot in common with chemosynthesis-based surface active agents in terms of properties and also many properties ...

Strong inhibitory activities and action modes of lipopeptides on lipase
Journal of Enzyme Inhibition and Medicinal Chemistry, 2020 Lipopeptides have been reported to exhibit anti-obesity effects. In this study, we obtained a Bacillus velezensis strain FJAT-52631 that could coproduce iturins, fengycins, and surfactins.

Targeted anion transporter delivery by coiled-coil driven membrane fusion [PDF]
, 2016 Synthetic anion transporters (anionophores) have potential as biomedical research tools and therapeutics. However, the efficient and specific delivery of these highly lipophilic molecules to a target cell membrane is non-trivial. Here, we investigate the
