Enhancing polyphenol synthesis and antioxidant activity in Camellia sinensis using shikimic and salicylic acids

JSFA reports, Volume 6, Issue 3, Page 73-87, March 2026.
Abstract Background Camellia sinensis, widely consumed as tea, is the second most popular beverage globally and is valued for its health benefits. However, environmental stressors pose a significant challenge to the tea industry. This study investigates the potential of shikimic acid (ShA) and its derivative, salicylic acid (SA), as inducers to enhance

Unraveling Mechanisms and Impact of Microbial Recruitment on Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.) and the Rhizosphere Mediated by Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria

Microorganisms, 2021
Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are noticeably applied to enhance plant nutrient acquisition and improve plant growth and health. However, limited information is available on the compositional dynamics of rhizobacteria communities with PGPR ...

Phylogenies of atpD and recA support the small subunit rRNA-based classification of rhizobia [PDF]

, 2001
The current classification of the rhizobia (root-nodule symbionts) assigns them to six genera. It is strongly influenced by the small subunit (16S, SSU) rRNA molecular phylogeny, but such single-gene phylogenies may not reflect the evolution of the ...

Synthetic Cells on Demand: From Molecular Stimuli to Cellular Functions

ChemSystemsChem, Volume 8, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Synthetic cells constructed via bottom‐up approaches using lipid or polymer vesicles have become essential tools for mimicking cellular functions and studying synthetic biological systems. These vesicles can undergo morphological changes and trigger internal reactions in response to external stimuli, such as osmotic pressure, temperature, pH ...

The Bacterial Photosynthetic Reaction Center as a Model for Membrane Proteins [PDF]

, 1989
Membrane proteins participate in many fundamental cellular processes. Until recently, an understanding of the function and properties of membrane proteins was hampered by an absence of structural information at the atomic level.

eMap 2.0: A Web‐Based Platform for Identifying electron Transfer Pathways in Proteins and Protein Families

WIREs Computational Molecular Science, Volume 16, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
In this review, we present eMap 2.0, a web‐based platform for analyzing electron transfer pathways in proteins. We highlight representative applications of eMap, including its use in characterizing electron transfer within individual proteins and in revealing shared electron transfer pathways across protein families.

Quantum Coherence as a Witness of Vibronically Hot Energy Transfer in Bacterial Reaction Centre

, 2016
Photosynthetic proteins have evolved over billions of years so as to undergo optimal energy transfer to the sites of charge separation. Based on spectroscopically detected quantum coherences, it has been suggested that this energy transfer is partially ...
