Fecal Material of Captive Wild Animals as Source of CAZymes With Application Potential

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 8, April 2026.
With the goal to identify a novel resource of enzymes, we tested for the potential of fecal metagenomes of captive wild animals to provide CAZymes. Our data show that CAZymes profiles differed between animals with varying gut physiology and diet, and that metagenomes of captive wild animals can be considered source of diverse CAZymes including rare and

A nanostructural view of the cell wall disassembly process during fruit ripening and postharvest storage by atomic force microscopy [PDF]

, 2018
Background: The mechanical properties of parenchyma cell walls and the strength and extension of adhesion areas between adjacent cells, jointly with cell turgor, are main determinants of firmness of fleshy fruits.

Fatty acid metabolism—an emerging regulatory node in T‐cell immunometabolism

Clinical &Translational Immunology, Volume 15, Issue 4, 2026.
Abstract While the roles of glucose metabolism and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle intermediates in immune regulation are well established, the contribution of fatty acid metabolism remains less well defined. In this review, we examine current knowledge on the immunomodulatory functions of fatty acid metabolism, with a particular focus on T‐cell biology.

Integrative Bioinformatic, Transcriptional, and Enzymatic Analysis Reveals Differential Regulation of Rhamnogalacturonan Lyase During Postharvest Ripening of Soursop (Annona muricata L.) Varieties

Agronomy
Soursop fruit (Annona muricata L.) exhibits a rapid loss of firmness during postharvest ripening, mainly attributed to pectin depolymerization and cell wall restructuring.

Forest Disturbance Drives Changes in the Functional Traits of Soil Bacteria: A Metagenomic Study of Kauri (Agathis australis) Forest Ecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study reveals how ecological disturbances reshape the structure and function of soil bacterial communities in kauri forests, which are critical for ecosystem resilience. By linking disturbance regimes to shifts in bacterial diversity and functional capacity, it highlights the wider effects of ecosystem disturbance on soil ecological function ...

Molecular Mechanisms Used by Salmonella to Evade the Immune System [PDF]

, 2017
Human and animal pathogens are able to circumvent, at least temporarily, the sophisticated immune defenses of their hosts. Several serovars of the Gram-negative bacterium Salmonella enterica have been used as models for the study of pathogen-host ...

Suppression of xylan endotransglycosylase PtxtXyn10A affects cellulose microfibril angle in secondary wall in aspen wood. [PDF]

, 2014
Certain xylanases from family GH10 are highly expressed during secondary wall deposition, but their function is unknown. We carried out functional analyses of the secondary-wall specific PtxtXyn10A in hybrid aspen (Populus tremula × tremuloides ...
