Assessment and classification of different ashes from waste incinerators in Thailand
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
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
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.

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 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.

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 ...

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.

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.

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 ...

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
