A Native Nepenthesin Reactor for Improved Proteolytic Digestion of Intrinsically Disordered Proteins in Proteomics Workflows. [PDF]
ChembiochemA workflow is presented for the extraction and purification of native nepenthesin (NEP‐NAT) from Nepenthes species, followed by the enzyme's immobilization on POROS‐AL chromatographic material. The NEP‐NAT reactor efficiently digested intrinsically disordered proteins and cleaved at Pro residues, outperforming commercial columns in an online LC/MS/MS ...

Combining the Pitcher and Lotus Plant: Supericephobic and Superhydrophobic Silicone Films. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Based on bench‐top nanomolding of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with optimized silicone oil content, we developed hierarchically structured silicone films by essentially combining the properties of the lotus and pitcher plant; particularly we are able to achieve water contact angle as high as 171° and ice adhesion strength as low as 11.5 kPa (i.e ...

RNA-seq analysis for plant carnivory gene discovery in Nepenthes × ventrata
Genomics Data, 2016 Carnivorous plants have the ability to capture and digest insects for nutrients, which allows them to survive in land deprived of nitrogenous nutrients. Nepenthes spp.

Nepenthes alba and Nepenthes gracillima [PDF]
Carnivorous Plant Newsletter, 2009 One century ago, the English botanist Henry Ridley traveled to Malaysia and climbed Mount Tahan in (what is now) Pahang. During his climb, Ridley discovered two species of pitcher plants (Nepenthes). He described the first one under the name Nepenthes gracillima in 1908, and recorded that it produces long, slender pitchers that are predominantly black ...

Carnivorous Nepenthes x ventrata plants use a naphthoquinone as phytoanticipin against herbivory.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Carnivorous plants feed on animal prey, mainly insects, to get additional nutrients. This carnivorous syndrome is widely investigated and reported. In contrast, reports on herbivores feeding on carnivorous plants and related defenses of the plants under ...

Mass spectrometry data of metabolomics analysis of Nepenthes pitchers
Data in Brief, 2017 Hybridisation plays a significant role in the evolution and diversification of plants. Hybridisation among Nepenthes species is extensive, either naturally or man-made.

Nepenthes of Kerangas Forest of Tuing towards Insect
Media Konservasi, 2019 Kerangas forest, is a distinct vegetation around the tropics. It has a highly acidic soils and low nutrition contents. This condition lead to a uniqueness of its community member, as shown by Nepenthes spp. Nepenthes spp. are carnivorous plants which use
