Risks for human health related to the presence of plant lectins in food
Abstract The European Commission asked the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) to assess the risk related to the presence of plant lectins in food. Based on the available evidence, the CONTAM Panel considered only phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), a legume lectin from beans (Phaseolus sp.), for the risk characterisation.

Primary structure and processing of the Candida tsukubaensisα‐glucosidase [PDF]
The nucleotide sequence of a 4.39‐kb DNA fragment encoding the α‐glucosidase gene of Candida tsukubaensis is reported. The cloned gene contains a major open reading frame (ORF 1) which encodes the α‐glucosidase as a single precursor polypeptide of 1070 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 119 kDa.

ABSTRACT Background Cholangiocarcinoma presents a global health challenge due to its increasing incidence and poor prognosis, primarily resulting from delayed diagnosis. There is an urgent need for a reliable biomarker to enhance early detection. Materials and Methods Patients with cholangiocarcinoma were enrolled into three cohorts: a discovery set (n

A simple and reliable protocol has been developed to evaluate glucose release after in vitro digestion and compare some commercial starchy foods available on the market in two forms produced by the same company, one of which is rich in fiber. Excluding flours, the lowest and highest amounts of glucose release were detected in durum wheat pasta and ...

A photogenerated carbene, 3-trifluoromethyl-3-(m-[125I]iodophenyl)carbene (Brunner, J., and Semenza G. (1981) Biochemistry, 20, 7174-7182), was used to label the hydrophobic core of small intestinal brush-order membrane vesicles. Reaction of the carbene with sucrase-isomaltase complex was restricted to a polypeptide segment which is essential for ...

ABSTRACT Malabsorption is a complex and multifaceted condition characterised by the defective passage of nutrients into the blood and lymphatic streams. Several congenital or acquired disorders may cause either selective or global malabsorption in both children and adults, such as cystic fibrosis, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI), coeliac ...

A carboxylate group occurs in each of the active sites of the intestinal sucrase-isomaltase complex and can be labeled selectively by [3H]conduritol-B-epoxide (Quaroni, A., Gershon, E., and Semenza, G. (1974) J. Biol. Chem. 249, 6424-6433). After peptic digestion of the labeled, denatured, reduced, and cyanoethylated enzyme three radioactive peptides ...

Dynamics of Spatial Organization of Bacterial Communities in a Tunable Flow Gut Microbiome‐on‐a‐Chip
This study introduces a tunable flow Gut Microbiome‐on‐a‐Chip (tfGMoC), a facile platform to simulate gut motility‐driven hydrodynamic forces to investigate microbial dynamics in a 3D gut‐like structure (µGut). The findings demonstrate that hydrodynamic forces facilitate bacterial spatial exploration and influence the organization of microbial ...

The rabbit intestinal sucrase-isomaltase complex has been purified to homogeneity after solubilization with Triton X 100 followed by chromatography on DEAE Sepharose CL 6B and a second solubilization with papain. After hydrophobic chromatography on Octyl Sepharose CL 6B, separation from other contaminating maltases was achieved by gel filtration on ...
