Assessment and classification of different ashes from waste incinerators in Thailand

open access: yesResults in Engineering
Rapid urbanisation and a growing population have led to a huge production of solid waste worldwide. To mitigate solid wastes, Thailand adapts incineration. As a consequence, a variety of fly ashes being produced in large quantities. Fly ash management is

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation

open access: yesJournal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 6, Page 1126-1152, June 2026.
Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...

Ustilago hordei Delivers Heterologous Fungal Effectors for Screening and Characterisation in Wheat

open access: yesPlant Pathology, Volume 75, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Ustilago hordei, a barley pathogen, has been engineered to deliver effectors of fungal pathogens in wheat. Necrosis‐inducing activities of Parastagonospora nodorum effectors SnTOX1 and SnTOX3 can effectively be screened for. Challenges occur when stem rust fungus avirulence effectors are tested in this secretion system.

Fimbriae‐Targeted Peptide‐Selenoviologen Cyclophane Complex for Enhanced Photodynamic Therapy of Periodontitis

open access: yesAggregate, Volume 6, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study develops a supramolecular photosensitizer (SeVB⊃PQ) by combining SeVB with a P. gingivalis‐targeting peptide. SeVB⊃PQ selectively binds P. gingivalis, boosts ROS generation under irradiation, disrupts ATP synthesis, restores microbial balance, reduces inflammation, and promotes alveolar bone regeneration, offering a promising platform for ...

The Farnesyltransferase β-Subunit Ram1 Regulates Sporisorium scitamineum Mating, Pathogenicity and Cell Wall Integrity

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
The basidiomycetous fungus Sporisorium scitamineum causes a serious sugarcane smut disease in major sugarcane growing areas. Sexual mating is essential for infection to the host; however, its underlying molecular mechanism has not been fully studied.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Mub1, a substrate adaptor of E3 ubiquitin ligase Ubr2, modulates sensitivity to cell wall stressors through multiple transcription factors

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 19, Page 5046-5066, October 2025.
We show that Mub1 links cell wall robustness with the ubiquitin‐proteasome system. As an adaptor protein of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Ubr2, it facilitates the ubiquitination of various transcription factors, including Mcm1 and Swi4. Yeasts evolved a complex regulatory programme to build and maintain their cell wall, the primary structure through which ...

PorA of the Type IX Secretion Is a Ligand of the PorXY Two‐Component Regulatory System in Porphyromonas gingivalis

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, Volume 123, Issue 6, Page 569-585, June 2025.
Porphyromonas gingivalis exports several virulent proteins, including gingipain proteinases, via the type 9 secretion system. Expression of several T9SS component proteins is regulated by the PorA‐PorY‐PoX‐SigP signaling cascade. This study presents a novel role of PorA in the signaling cascade.

Suppressive Effects of Kouboku on Methyl Mercaptan Production and Biofilm Formation in Porphyromonas gingivalis

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 40, Issue 3, Page 128-136, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Porphyromonas gingivalis, the bacterium responsible for periodontitis, produces several pathogenic factors, including methyl mercaptan, which contribute to the disease. Kouboku (Magnoliaceae), a Chinese herbal medicine, has been shown to suppress methyl mercaptan production from P. gingivalis.

Role of CRISPR‐Cas systems in periodontal disease pathogenesis and potential for periodontal therapy: A review

open access: yesMolecular Oral Microbiology, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 1-16, February 2025.
Abstract Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) are DNA sequences capable of editing a host genome sequence. CRISPR and its specific CRISPR‐associated (Cas) protein complexes have been adapted for various applications. These include activating or inhibiting specific genetic sequences or acting as molecular scissors to cut ...

Metabolic Changes in Oral Fibroblasts After Exposure to Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles From Three Strains of Porphyromonas gingivalis

open access: yesCellular Microbiology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Aims Porphyromonas gingivalis is a keystone pathogen in periodontitis that releases bacterial extracellular vesicles (bEVs) with a content derived from the membrane and cytosol of the bacteria itself. The bEVs are taken up by host tissue cells, such as oral fibroblasts, yet their effects on human cells remain incompletely understood. Methods The aim of
