Structural Basis of Mucopolysaccharidosis Type II and Construction of a Database of Mutant Iduronate 2-Sulfatases. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis type II (MPS II, Hunter syndrome) is an X-linked genetic disorder caused by a deficiency of iduronate 2-sulfatase (IDS), and missense mutations comprising about 30% of the mutations responsible for MPS II result in heterogeneous ...

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation
Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...

Camelina sativa, a low‐input oilseed for biofuel production, was evaluated under different sulfur fertilization strategies using recycled gypsum as a S‐source. Adding a moderate sulfur supply (40 kg ha−1) to regular nitrogen fertilization increased crop productivity and reduced environmental impacts, including emissions associated with iLUC, supporting

ABSTRACT Background Suppressing estradiol (E2) during baboon pregnancy lowers offspring skeletal muscle capillary density, vital for insulin‐mediated glucose uptake, and induces insulin resistance. We examined whether E2 deprivation also impairs microvascular flow and cardiac function.

ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis type III (MPS III) is a group of autosomal recessive neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorders that causes progressive cognitive and physical impairment, predominantly in child/early adulthood. The median age of death is 17 years as there is no safe, effective treatment approved.

Teriparatide in Two Patients With Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IVB
ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidosis Type IV is a multisystem lysosomal storage disease characterized by severe skeletal dysplasia resulting from impaired degradation of the glycosaminoglycans keratan sulfate and chondroitin‐6‐sulfate. The condition is classified into Types A and B based on the underlying enzyme deficiency.

Sample Preparation and Separation of Lignans by Liquid Chromatography
ABSTRACT Lignans are important phytochemicals found mostly in the resins of coniferous trees, but are also introduced into human diets through foods such as sesame seeds and extra‐virgin olive oil. They are pharmacologically interesting mainly because of their antioxidant activities, and they have also been shown to have cytotoxic and antimicrobial ...

Gap Analysis of Metabolic Conversions of Off‐Flavors and Antinutrients in Plant‐Based Substrates
ABSTRACT To drastically reduce the carbon footprint of the food production chain, a major shift towards alternatives to conventional meat and dairy products is required. The use of plant‐based proteins is a promising route, but it also comes with challenges: Plant‐based proteins often contain antinutritional factors and off‐flavors, which can ...

CO 2 Fluxes and Soil Responses to Straw and Herbicide in Peanut
ABSTRACT Peanut cultivation plays an important agronomic role in Brazil, especially in rotation with sugarcane, promoting biological nitrogen fixation and improving soil quality. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that the combined use of sugarcane mulch, peanut cultivation, and herbicide application would affect soil CO₂ fluxes, soil chemical ...
