Interactions of cadmium with yeast mannans.
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 1988 The interactions of cadmium (Cd) ions with mannans from six species of yeast were studied using equilibrium dialysis. Among the six mannans examined, the binding capacity of the mannan of S. carlsbergensis was the greatest, at about 146 μmol/g mannan. For the other mannans, the amounts of bound metal ions ranged from 20-46 μmol/g annan.

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Relationships between multiple sleep outcomes, obesity and adiposity across childhood and adolescence have been previously reported. Health‐promoting interventions to improve sleep and reduce adolescent obesity could target shared determinants of sleep and obesity.

New Phytologist, EarlyView.Summary Plant cell walls constitute a major defence barrier against pathogens, although it is unclear how specific cell wall components impact pathogen colonisation. Pathogens secrete cell wall‐degrading enzymes (CWDEs) to facilitate plant colonisation, but damaged or infected cells are often a source of cell wall‐derived oligosaccharides that trigger ...

Current understanding of the role of the cell wall in Cuscuta parasitism
Plant Biology, EarlyView.We comprehensively summarise the roles of plant cell wall in key processes of parasitism by the obligate stem parasite Cuscuta. Abstract The plant cell wall (CW) plays a crucial role in many aspects of parasitism by the obligate stem parasite, Cuscuta. Cuscuta parasitism begins with tight coiling around the host stem by the strong tensile force of the ...

Boosting of enzymatic softwood saccharification by fungal GH5 and GH26 endomannanases
Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2018 Background Softwood is a promising feedstock for lignocellulosic biorefineries, but as it contains galactoglucomannan efficient mannan-degrading enzymes are required to unlock its full potential.

Histiocytes: Multifaceted Regulators of Health and Disease
Veterinary Clinical Pathology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The mononuclear phagocyte system encompasses macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and monocytes. Tissue‐resident macrophages and dendritic cells arise during embryogenesis and are replenished either through self‐renewal or by monocytes during inflammation.

Tackling the Legs of Mannan-Binding Lectin [PDF]
Structure, 2011 The recognition of pathogen surfaces by mannan-binding lectin activates MASP proteases, leading to complement activation. A crystal structure by Gingras et al. (2011) in this issue of Structure now shows how the collagen-like stems of mannan-binding lectin bind MASP-1 through a minimalist set of interactions.

Human brain imaging with high‐density electroencephalography: Techniques and applications
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Recent technological advances have elevated high‐density electroencephalography (hdEEG) to the status of a reliable neuroimaging tool. This technique measures scalp potentials with high temporal resolution, which permits the non‐invasive detection and analysis of neural oscillations.
