N‐Glycoproteomics of the Apicomplexan Parasite Toxoplasma gondii
ABSTRACT Protein N‐glycosylation influences protein folding, stability, and trafficking, and has prominent functions in cell–cell adhesion and recognition. For the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, N‐glycosylation of proteins is crucial for initial adhesion to host cells, parasite motility, and consequently, its ability to invade host cells.

Summary Pigments, as coloured secondary metabolites, endow the world with a rich palette of colours. They primarily originate from plants and microorganisms and play crucial roles in their survival and adaptation processes. In this article, we categorize pigments based on their chemical structure into flavonoids, carotenoids, pyrroles, quinones ...

Oligopeptide Transporter-1 is Associated with Fluorescence Intensity of 5-Aminolevulinic Acid-Based Photodynamic Diagnosis in Pancreatic Cancer Cells [PDF]
[Background] The 5-aminolevulinic acid (ALA)-based photodynamic diagnosis is based on the accumulation of photosensitizing protoporphyrin IX in the tumor after ALA administration. However, the mechanisms connecting exogenous ALA and tumor fluorescence in

Abstract The growing environmental pressure of the animal food chain requires a system shift toward more sustainable diets based on alternative protein sources. Emerging alternative protein sources, such as faba bean, mung bean, lentil, black gram, cowpea, quinoa, hemp, leaf proteins, microalgae, and duckweeds, are being explored for their potential in

Herbicides as fungicides: Targeting heme biosynthesis in the maize pathogen Ustilago maydis
Flumioxazin, a heme biosynthesis inhibitor and the active ingredient in the herbicide BroadStar, impairs the virulence of Ustilago maydis on maize. Abstract Pathogens must efficiently acquire nutrients from host tissue to proliferate, and strategies to block pathogen access therefore hold promise for disease control.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is now popular for treating nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC), but can be ineffective for larger skin tumors, mainly due to inadequate production of PpIX. Work over the past two decades has shown that differentiation‐promoting agents, including methotrexate, 5‐fluorouracil and vitamin D can be combined with ALA‐PDT as ...
