Ferrets exclusively synthesize Neu5Ac and express naturally humanized influenza A virus receptors [PDF]

, 2014
Mammals express the sialic acids ​N-acetylneuraminic acid (​Neu5Ac) and ​N-glycolylneuraminic acid (​Neu5Gc) on cell surfaces, where they act as receptors for pathogens, including influenza A virus (IAV). ​Neu5Gc is synthesized from ​Neu5Ac by the enzyme

Intra‐ and Intermolecular Glycosylation of d‐Idopyranosyl and 6‐Deoxy‐d‐ido‐heptopyranosyl Donors: Toward the Repeating Unit of Campylobacter jejuni HS:4c Capsular Polysaccharide

European Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 4, January 26, 2026.
A comprehensive glycosylation study of diversely protected and activated d‐idopyranosyl and 6‐deoxy‐d‐ido‐heptopyranosyl donors using intra‐ and intermolecular coupling strategies is reported. Intramolecular aglycon delivery afforded 1,2‐cis‐β‐idopyranosides, while intermolecular glycosylation yielded chromatographically separable α‐ and β‐linked ...

Safety of 6′‐sialyllactose (6′‐SL) sodium salt produced with a derivative strain (Escherichia coli K‐12 MG1655 INB‐6SL_02) of E. coli K‐12 MG1655 (ATCC 700926) as a novel food pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on 6′‐sialyllactose (6’‐SL) sodium salt as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. The NF is mainly composed of the human‐identical milk oligosaccharide (HiMO) 6’‐SL (sodium salt),

Prediction of specific virus outbreaks made from the increased concentration of a new class of virus genomic peptides, replikins. [PDF]

, 2011
Advance warning of pathogen outbreaks has not been possible heretofore. A new class of genomic peptides associated with rapid replication was discovered and named replikins. Software was designed to analyze replikins quantitatively.

Grifonin-1: A Small HIV-1 Entry Inhibitor Derived from the Algal Lectin, Griffithsin [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Griffithsin, a 121-residue protein isolated from a red algal Griffithsia sp., binds high mannose N-linked glycans of virus surface glycoproteins with extremely high affinity, a property that allows it to prevent the entry of primary isolates

Characterization of Newly Discovered Polyester Polyurethane‐Degrading Methylobacterium aquaticum Strain A1

Journal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 65, Issue 10, October 2025.
ABSTRACT In this study, we present Methylobacterium aquaticum A1, a novel strain capable of degrading polyester polyurethane (PE‐PUR). The attachment of M. aquaticum A1 to PE‐PUR and its degradation capabilities were verified using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Fourier‐Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT‐IR).

Changes in the Serum and Tissue Levels of Free and Conjugated Sialic Acids, Neu5Ac, Neu5Gc, and KDN in Mice after the Oral Administration of Edible Bird’s Nests: An LC–MS/MS Quantitative Analysis

Separations
Edible bird’s nests have a variety of biological activities, the main components of which are sialic acids. Sialic acids are a group of nine-carbon N-acetylated derivatives of neuraminic acid containing a keto group at position C2 and play important ...

Beyond FimH: Diversity and Relevance of Carbohydrate‐Binding Fimbrial Proteins in Escherichia coli

ChemBioChem, Volume 26, Issue 17, September 15, 2025.
This review discusses fimbrial lectins found in Escherichia coli (E. coli) other than FimH, which could be targeted to treat E. coli pathogenicity as an alternative to antibiotic treatment. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is responsible for multiple diseases in humans and animals.
