ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...

In Vivo Pharmacodynamic Imaging of Proteasome Inhibition
Inhibiting the proteolytic activity of the 26S proteasome has been shown to have selective apoptotic effects on cancer cells and to be clinically efficacious in certain malignancies.

Involvement of antizyme in stabilization of ornithine decarboxylase caused by inhibitors of polyamine synthesis [PDF]
Contrary to previous findings, ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) was stabilized by treatment of cells with DL‐α‐difluoromethylornithine, an enzyme‐activated irreversible inhibitor of ODC. Both this inhibitor and cyclohexylamine, a spermidine synthase inhibitor known to stabilize ODC, caused decreases in the antizyme/ODC ratio by increasing ODC content and ...

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Effect on prostatic growth of 2-difluoromethylornithine, an effective inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase [PDF]
2-Difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), an enzyme-activated irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase, causes marked changes in the polyamine metabolism of ventral prostate when given to adult rats in drinking water (20 g/l) for 3 consecutive days. A 90% inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase activity is accompanied by approx.

Vitamin‐Responsive Disorders: From Molecular Basis to Clinical Presentation and Therapy
ABSTRACT Vitamin‐dependent cofactors are essential for numerous metabolic reactions, and defects affecting their uptake, conversion, utilisation, or regeneration constitute a heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs). Although dietary vitamin intake is sufficient to sustain coenzyme synthesis in healthy individuals, it is insufficient

DL-α-Monofluoromethylputrescine is a potent irreversible inhibitor of Escherichia coli ornithine decarboxylase [PDF]
DL-alpha-Monofluoromethylputrescine (compound R.M.I. 71864) is an enzyme-activated irreversible inhibitor of the biosynthetic enzyme ornithine decarboxylase from Escherichia coli. This compound, however, has much less effect in vitro on ornithine decarboxylase obtained from Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Intratumoral Microbiota in Tumor: Current Understandings and Future Perspectives
Intratumoral bacteria are emerging as active regulators of cancer evolution rather than bystanders. This review outlines how tumor‐resident microbes drive tumor initiation and growth by inducing genomic instability, epigenetic reprogramming, oncogenic signaling, and chronic inflammation, while promoting metastatic spread via invasion, angiogenesis ...
