Metagenomic and biogenic amine changes in cassava fermentation for tucupi production using Pediococcus acidilactici starter culture. [PDF]

J Sci Food Agric
Abstract BACKGROUND The use of starter cultures is essential for producing fermented foods with desirable standardized characteristics and for preventing pathogens. Pediococcus acidilactici, isolated from cocoa fermentation, was used in the production of tucupi, a widely appreciated sauce made from the juice of cassava root (manipueira) in the ...

Identification of functional amino acid residues involved in polyamine and agmatine transport by human organic cation transporter 2. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Polyamine (putrescine, spermidine and spermine) and agmatine uptake by the human organic cation transporter 2 (hOCT2) was studied using HEK293 cells transfected with pCMV6-XL4/hOCT2.

Impact of Postharvest Putrescine Treatments on Phenolic Compounds, Antioxidant Capacity, Organic Acid Contents and Some Quality Characteristics of Fresh Fig Fruits during Cold Storage

Plants, 2023
The storage and shelf life of the fig, which has a sensitive fruit structure, is short, and this results in excessive economic losses. In a study carried out to contribute to the solution of this problem, the effect of postharvest putrescine application ...

Biosynthesis and engineering of the nonribosomal peptides with a C-terminal putrescine

Nature Communications, 2023
The broad bioactivities of nonribosomal peptides rely on increasing structural diversity. Genome mining of the Burkholderiales strain Schlegelella brevitalea DSM 7029 leads to the identification of a class of dodecapeptides, glidonins, that feature ...
