The L-amino acid oxidase of Neurospora [PDF]

open access: yes, 1951
In 1944 one of us described a D-amino acid oxidase in extracts of Neurospora crassa (1). Except for slight activity against L-glutamate, no oxidation of L-amino acids was observed.

2-pentanone production from hexanoic acid by Penicillium roqueforti from blue cheese:is this the pathway used in humans? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Production of 2-pentanone, a methylketone, is increased in fasting ketotic humans. Its origin is unknown. We hypothesised that it is formed via β-oxidation of hexanoic acid by the peroxisomal pathway proposed for methylketone-producing fungi and yeasts ...

Bioengineering a Patient‐Derived Vascularized Lung Tumor‐on‐Chip Model to Decipher Immunomodulation by the Endothelium

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Most in vitro cancer models lack cellular diversity, functional complexity, and clinical relevance. This work highlights the generation of an innovative dynamic tetraculture with autologous patient‐derived cells within a vascularized tumor‐on‐chip, as well as the recapitulation of endothelial anergy features induced by the tumor microenvironment ...

Effect of a combination of enzymes on the fundamental rheological behavior of bread dough enriched with resistant starch [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The effect of three enzymes on the fundamental rheological parameters of bread dough with high content of resistant starch (RS) was studied. The RS was added as an alternative to increase the fiber ingestion while the enzymes, to overcome the gluten ...
