Abstract Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease caused by periodontal pathogens in subgingival plaque and is associated with systemic inflammatory diseases. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) released from host cells and pathogens carry a variety of biological molecules and are of interest for their role in disease progression and as diagnostic ...

Summary Stem bending in trees induces flexure wood but its properties and development are poorly understood. Here, we investigated the effects of low‐intensity multidirectional stem flexing on growth and wood properties of hybrid aspen, and on its transcriptomic and hormonal responses.

Enzyme targets of activity‐based probes built on the anti‐neoplastic drug and antimicrobial agent carmofur in methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have been identified. Chemoproteomic profiling revealed a broad reactivity of the probe against both cysteine and serine hydrolases, and identified uncharacterized bacterial enzymes; this has ...

GDSL-type esterase/lipase proteins (GELPs) belong to the SGNH hydrolase superfamily and contain a conserved GDSL motif at their N-terminus. GELPs are widely distributed in nature, from microbes to plants, and play crucial roles in growth and development,

Structural analysis of SGNH domains involved in lipopolysaccharide modification [PDF]
Gram negative bacteria have lipopolysaccharides (LPS) projecting from their outer membrane which are often acetylated by acyltransferase proteins. Some of these acyltransferase proteins have additional attached SGNH domains (SGNHAT3); while much is known

Mechanistic Pathways for Peptidoglycan O-Acetylation and De-O-Acetylation
The post-synthetic O-acetylation of the essential component of bacterial cell walls, peptidoglycan (PG), is performed by many pathogenic bacteria to help them evade the lytic action of innate immunity responses.

Inhibition of the soluble epoxide hydrolase promotes albuminuria in mice with progressive renal disease [PDF]
Epoxyeicotrienoic acids (EETs) are cytochrome P450-dependent anti-hypertensive and anti-inflammatory derivatives of arachidonic acid, which are highly abundant in the kidney and considered reno-protective.

A novel acetyl xylan esterase enabling complete deacetylation of substituted xylans
Background Acetylated 4-O-(methyl)glucuronoxylan (GX) is the main hemicellulose in deciduous hardwood, and comprises a β-(1→4)-linked xylopyranosyl (Xylp) backbone substituted by both acetyl groups and α-(1→2)-linked 4-O-methylglucopyranosyluronic acid ...

Functional analysis of four bile salt hydrolase and penicillin acylase family members in Lactobacillus plantarum WCFS1 [PDF]
Bile salts play an important role in the digestion of lipids in vertebrates and are synthesized and conjugated to either glycine or taurine in the liver.
