Magnetically Actuated Drops‐on‐Stilts Microrobots for Transport and Delivery of Hydrophobic Cargo

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Iron oxide nanoparticles and oil droplets in external magnetic fields form “drops‐on‐stilts” microrobots that transport hydrophobic cargo. Tunable nanoparticle–droplet interactions generate stilt‐like structures. Field rotation enables walking, obstacle navigation, and collective motion.

Genomewide and Enzymatic Analysis Reveals Efficient d-Galacturonic Acid Metabolism in the Basidiomycete Yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides. [PDF]

, 2019
Biorefining of renewable feedstocks is one of the most promising routes to replace fossil-based products. Since many common fermentation hosts, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, are naturally unable to convert many component plant cell wall ...

Magnetic Textiles: A Review of Materials, Fabrication, Properties, and Applications

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Magnetic textiles (M‐textiles) are emerging as a programmable materials platform that merges magnetic matter with hierarchical textile structures. This article consolidates magnetic material classes, textile architectures, and fabrication and magnetization strategies, revealing structure–property–function relationships that govern magneto‐mechanical ...

Isolation of the Oleaginous Yeasts from the Soil and Studies of Their Lipid-Producing Capacities

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2009
D-xylose is one of the most abundant pentose sugars in nature. To isolate oleaginous yeasts that can utilize xylose from diverse soil samples, soils from a litchi orchard, longan orchard, carambola orchard, and woods were collected, yeasts were isolated ...

Production of human milk fat substitute by engineered strains of Yarrowia lipolytica

Metabolic Engineering Communications, 2022
Human milk fat has a distinctive stereoisomeric structure where palmitic acid is esterified to the middle (sn-2) position on the glycerol backbone of the triacylglycerol and unsaturated fatty acids to the outer (sn-1/3) positions.

Simultaneous utilization of glucose and xylose for lipid production by Trichosporon cutaneum [PDF]

, 2011
Background Biochemical conversion of lignocellulose hydrolysates remains challenging, largely because most microbial processes have markedly reduced efficiency in the presence of both hexoses and pentoses.

Detection of Protein–Protein Interactions in Escherichia coli With Single Molecule Sensitivity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This article describes a regulatory circuit in Escherichia coli able to detect protein–protein interactions with exquisite sensitivity. The interaction between two hybrid proteins fused to Bordetella pertussis adenylate cyclase and its activator calmodulin triggers a potent cyclic AMP signaling cascade.
