The One Health approach in food safety: Challenges and opportunities
Food Frontiers, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 1837-1865, September 2024.Abstract According to the World Health Organization, contaminated food causes approximately 600 million cases of illness and 420,000 associated deaths worldwide each year. In this scenario, food safety is a crucial task, which is based in the application of correct hygiene practices throughout the entire food production chain: from farm to table ...

In planta imaging of pyridine nucleotides using second‐generation fluorescent protein biosensors
The Plant Journal, Volume 119, Issue 3, Page 1643-1658, August 2024.SUMMARY Redox changes of pyridine nucleotides in cellular compartments are highly dynamic and their equilibria are under the influence of various reducing and oxidizing reactions. To obtain spatiotemporal data on pyridine nucleotides in living plant cells, typical biochemical approaches require cell destruction. To date, genetically encoded fluorescent

Efficient Interaction between Two GTPases Allows the Chloroplast SRP Pathway to Bypass the Requirement for an SRP RNA [PDF]
, 2007 Cotranslational protein targeting to membranes is regulated by two GTPases in the signal recognition particle (SRP) and the SRP receptor; association between the two GTPases is slow and is accelerated 400-fold by the SRP RNA.

Occurrence of phosphenolpyruvate carboxylase in the extremely thermophilic bacterium Thermus aquaticus [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 1976 In the extreme thermophile Thermus aquaticus, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase catalyzes carbon dioxide fixation on the C3 metabolite phosphoenolpyruvate, producing oxaloacetate. In a moderately thermophilic Bacillus species this function is fulfilled by pyruvate carboyxlase.
