Quorum Quenching Revisited—From Signal Decays to Signalling Confusion

Sensors, 2012
In a polymicrobial community, while some bacteria are communicating with neighboring cells (quorum sensing), others are interrupting the communication (quorum quenching), thus creating a constant arms race between intercellular communication. In the past

Synthesis and Structure-Activity Relationship Studies of Hydrazide-Hydrazones as Inhibitors of Laccase from Trametes versicolor

Molecules, 2020
A series of hydrazide-hydrazones 1−3, the imine derivatives of hydrazides and aldehydes bearing benzene rings, were screened as inhibitors of laccase from Trametes versicolor.

Effect of the Extracts of Sargassum fusiforme on Red Tide Microalgae in East China Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
This study examined the effects of extracts of hijiki (Sargassum fusiforme) on the growth and physiology of three species of red tide microalgae (Prorocentrum donghaiensis, Skeletonema costatum, and Heterosigma akashiwo) that commonly grow in the East ...

Current Development in Decolorization of Synthetic Dyes by Immobilized Laccases

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
The world today is in a quest for new means of environmental remediation as the methods currently used are not sufficient to halt the damage. Mostly, a global direction is headed toward a shift from traditional chemical-based methods to a more ...

Time-course RNA-seq analysis provides an improved understanding of genetic regulation in response to cold stress from white clover (Trifolium repens L.)

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2022
White clover (Trifolium repens L.) is an important legume forage, which is widely distributed in cool-season regions. Therefore, cold stress is a major environmental factor limiting its growth and production, while little is known about the its cold ...

Implications of step-chilling on meat color investigated using proteome analysis of the sarcoplasmic protein fraction of beef longissimus lumborum muscle

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2018
In order to improve beef color and color stability, step-chilling (SC) was applied on excised bovine longissimus lumborum muscle, with chilling starting at 0–4°C for 5 h, then holding the temperature at 12–18°C for 6 h, followed by 0–4°C again until 24 h

The oxidoreductases POR and CYB5R1 catalyze lipid peroxidation to execute ferroptosis

Molecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021
Our recent study showed that two oxidoreductases – NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (POR) and NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase (CYB5R1) – transfer electrons to oxygen to generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).

Redox‐dependent binding and conformational equilibria govern the fluorescence decay of NAD(P)H in living cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this work, we reveal how different enzyme binding configurations influence the fluorescence decay of NAD(P)H in live cells using time‐resolved anisotropy imaging and fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM). Mathematical modelling shows that the redox states of the NAD and NADP pools govern these configurations, shaping their fluorescence ...

Origin and Evolution of Flavin-Based Electron Bifurcating Enzymes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Twelve evolutionarily unrelated oxidoreductases form enzyme complexes that catalyze the simultaneous coupling of exergonic and endergonic oxidation–reduction reactions to circumvent thermodynamic barriers and minimize free energy loss in a process known ...

Transcriptome-based analysis of salt-related genes during the sprout stage of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) under salt stress conditions

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2021
Salt stress is an important factor restricting crop growth. Thus, genes related to plant responses to high salinity at the sprout stage of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) should be identified and characterized.
