Perceptual ripening of oranges
i-PerceptionWe present a practical example for the phenomenon of color assimilation. We describe the advances in research on color assimilation from von Bezold, to Albers and Munker, and provide a compelling example of the recently described “Confetti-illusion” by Novick.

Molecular and Genetic Regulation of Sensory Quality of Climacteric Fruit [PDF]
, 2004 The sensory quality of fruit has become a major criterion in making the purchasing decision by consumers. Breeding programs have mainly been directed, from the post-harvest stand point, towards improving shelf-life.

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Functional characterization of a melon alcohol acyl-transferase gene family involved in the biosynthesis of ester volatiles. Identification of the crucial role of a threonine residue for enzyme activity [PDF]
, 2005 Volatile esters, a major class of compounds contributing to the aroma of many fruit, are synthesized by alcohol acyl-transferases (AAT). We demonstrate here that, in Charentais melon (Cucumis melo var.

Structural dynamics of the plant hormone receptor ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The present study unveils the structural and signaling dynamics of ETR1, a key plant ethylene receptor. Using an optimized nanodisc system and solution NMR, we captured full‐length ETR1 in a native‐like membrane environment. Our findings reveal dynamic domain uncoupling and Cu(I)‐induced rigidification, providing the first evidence of metal‐triggered ...

Survival of Staphylococcus aureus during the manufacture and ripening of camembert cheese : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Food Technology, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2017 Staphylococcal Food Poisoning (SFP) is the third most common cause of food poisoning internationally, caused by an enterotoxin produced by Staphylococcus aureus. S. aureus contamination in dairy products, including cheese, can lead to SFP.

A working model for cytoplasmic assembly of H/ACA snoRNPs
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Dyskerin is the component of nuclear H/ACA ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) endowed with pseudouridine synthase catalytic activity. Two isoforms of human dyskerin have been characterized: the abundant Iso1, mainly nuclear, and the shorter Iso3, mainly cytoplasmic but occasionally imported into nuclei.
