Arabidopsis thaliana nucleosidase mutants provide new insights into nucleoside degradation [PDF]
A central step in nucleoside and nucleobase salvage pathways is the hydrolysis of nucleosides to their respective nucleobases. In plants this is solely accomplished by nucleosidases (EC 3.2.2.x).To elucidate the importance of nucleosidases for nucleoside

ABSTRACT Plants systemically regulate growth and gene expression according to their internal nitrate status. Our previous study reported that shoot nitrate accumulation increases shoot expression of adenosine phosphate‐ISOPENTENYLTRANSFERASE 3 (IPT3) and shoot levels of N6‐(Δ2‐isopentenyl) adenine (iP)‐type cytokinins (CKs).

Co‐Expression of MHC‐II and ANXA1: Mediators of PD‐1/PD‐L1 Therapy Resistance in Breast Cancer
ABSTRACT Background Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) presents significant treatment challenges and poor prognosis. While immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy shows promise, patient responses vary widely, highlighting the urgent need for reliable biomarkers to predict efficacy and guide treatment decisions.

The peeled Pinellia ternata (Thunb.) Breit tubers were dried with the microwave vacuum drying oven. Then, its drying characteristics, contents of nucleosides, and surface microstructural alterations of dried samples were determined, respectively. Drying parameters were predicted and optimized using four different mathematical models and artificial ...

Disruption of mc1r Disturbs Skin Pigmentation in Xenopus tropicalis
ABSTRACT The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) is well‐established as a pivotal regulator of pigmentation in various species. Despite a wealth of research focused on mammals and fish, the role of Mc1r in amphibians has remained largely unexplored. This study was designed to elucidate the contribution of Mc1r in Xenopus tropicalis.

Domestication syndrome is investigated by proteomic analysis between cultivated cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) and its wild relatives [PDF]
Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) wild relatives remain a largely untapped potential for genetic improvement. However, the domestication syndrome phenomena from wild species to cultivated cassava remain poorly understood.

In Vitro Psilocybin Synthesis by Co‐Immobilized Enzymes
The drug candidate and psychedelic mushroom product psilocybin was produced by multienzyme‐charged beads in a biocatalytic cell‐free approach. Using immobilized fungal indolethylamine biosynthetic and additional bacterial enzymes, these beads turned over 4‐hydroxy‐l‐tryptophan to psilocybin.

Utilization of tryptophan, nicotinamide and nicotinic acid as precursors for nicotinamide nucleotide synthesis in isolated rat liver cells [PDF]
1. Incubation of isolated rat hepatocytes with nicotinamide or nicotinic acid showed that while both vitamers were taken up from the incubation medium, neither was utilized to any significant extent as a precursor of the nicotinamide nucleotide coenzymes,
