Comparative transcriptome analysis reveals key genes potentially related to soluble sugar and organic acid accumulation in watermelon. [PDF]
Soluble sugars and organic acids are important components of fruit flavor and have a strong impact on the overall organoleptic quality of watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) fruit.

Functional nucleic acids with synthetic sugar or nucleobase moieties
Functional nucleic acids including aptamers and DNAzymes are a class of valuable molecular tool for biotechnology. However, DNA and RNA aptamers and catalysts suffer from low biological stability and limited chemical diversity.

Effect of amino acids on sugar absorption [PDF]
1. Sacs of everted mid‐small intestine of the hamster have been used to study the effect of amino acids on sugar absorption.2. The sugars employed were D‐glucose, D‐galactose, 3‐O‐methyl‐ D‐glucose, D‐fucose, L‐glucose, α‐glucoheptose, L‐fucose, D‐mannose and L‐sorbose. The amino acids were L‐ and D‐histidine, L‐ and D‐methionine, L‐ and D‐

We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Structural insights and therapeutic targets in Acinetobacter baumannii capsule biosynthesis
Hypervirulent KL49 A. baumannii's capsular polysaccharide contains the nonulosonic acid 8‐epi‐Leg5,7Ac2, synthesized by epimerization via ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC. Crystal structures of ElaA, ElaB, and ElaC reveal their role in CMP‐Leg5,7Ac2 synthesis and regioselective C8 epimerization.
