Esterification enhances carotenoid retention during bread‐making
Abstract BACKGROUND Carotenoids are plant‐derived antioxidants that contribute to human health and represent key quality traits in wheat‐based foods. However, they are highly unstable and prone to degradation during processing. Xanthophyll esterification has been identified as a natural mechanism that enhances carotenoid stability during grain storage.

A first structural model for covalent dimerization of S100 proteins
The first molecular description of a disulfide‐crosslinked S100 homodimer is revealed by the crystallographic structure of an S100A6 variant bound to the receptor for advanced glycation end‐products (RAGE). Sequence‐conservation analyses and computational modeling suggest that this covalent architecture may be adopted by other S100 proteins, thus ...
