Low-field thermal mixing in [1-13C] pyruvic acid for brute-force hyperpolarization [PDF]

, 2016
We detail the process of low-field thermal mixing (LFTM) between 1H and 13C nuclei in neat [1-13C] pyruvic acid at cryogenic temperatures (4–15 K). Using fast-field-cycling NMR, 1H nuclei in the molecule were polarized at modest high field (2 T) and then

ZmMYB127 Modulates Maize Kernel Texture and Size by Integrating the Synthesis of Starch, Zein Proteins and Auxin

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Kernel texture is an important agronomic trait that determines the end‐uses of maize kernels and affects their integrity at harvest and susceptibility to pests and diseases. The ratio of the vitreous endosperm (RVE) is the key index for assessing kernel texture, and identifying key genes involved in its formation is crucial for maize breeding.

Enabling liquid vapor analysis using synchrotron VUV single photon ionization mass spectrometry with a microfluidic interface. [PDF]

, 2018
Vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) single photon ionization mass spectrometry (SPI-MS) is a vacuum-based technique typically used for the analysis of gas phase and solid samples, but not for liquids due to the challenge in introducing volatile liquids in a vacuum.

The miR319/bHLH094 Module Regulates Creeping Bentgrass Thermotolerance by Modulating Auxin Biosynthesis and Signalling Pathway

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MicroRNA319 (miR319) has been demonstrated to regulate plant development and responses to stress such as drought and salt. However, its role in thermotolerance, particularly in cool season grasses, remains unclear. Here we report that miR319 plays a negative role in heat tolerance of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera).

Pinus‐derived membrane vesicles disrupt pathogenic metabolism in fungi

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Needle‐derived vesicles from pine trees impair fungal metabolism and growth, offering a sustainable strategy to control pine pitch canker disease. Abstract Much of what we know about the biological impacts of vesicles (MVs) is derived from Arabidopsis thaliana.

Sustainable synthesis of α-ketoglutaric and methanetriacetic acids from biomass feedstocks

Nature Communications
α-Ketoglutaric acid (KGA) and methanetriacetic acid (MTA) are important multi-functional carboxylic acids with versatile applications. However, their synthetic processes are still not green and efficient.

Mathematical model of the zebrafish ventricular cardiomyocyte action potential and calcium transient

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study presents the development and validation of the first biophysically detailed computational model of the zebrafish ventricular action potential (AP). The model is based on a human cardiomyocyte framework and reparameterized using published and newly generated patch‐clamp recordings of zebrafish ionic currents.

Krebs Cycle Intermediates Protective against Oxidative Stress by Modulating the Level of Reactive Oxygen Species in Neuronal HT22 Cells

Antioxidants, 2017
Krebs cycle intermediates (KCIs) are reported to function as energy substrates in mitochondria and to exert antioxidants effects on the brain. The present study was designed to identify which KCIs are effective neuroprotective compounds against oxidative

Recent progress in glycerol oxidation to lactic acid and pyruvic acid with heterogeneous metal catalysts

Carbon Resources Conversion
The production of biodiesel generates a significant amount of glycerol by-products. One way to utilize glycerol is converting it into lactic acid, which can then be further transformed into pyruvic acid.
