Optimized Production of Xylitol from Xylose Using a Hyper-Acidophilic Candida tropicalis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2015
The yeast Candida tropicalis DSM 7524 produces xylitol, a natural, low-calorie sweetener, by fermentation of xylose. In order to increase xylitol production rate during the submerged fermentation process, some parameters-substrate (xylose) concentration,

A Straightforward Algorithm for Diagnosing Hymenoptera Venom Allergy and Identifying the Relevant Venom for Immunotherapy

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Conventional tests, such as specific IgE (sIgE) or intradermal testing (IDT), are usually sufficient. Combining both tests increases sensitivity, while additional tests, like the basophil activation test (BAT), provide no further benefit for the majority of patients.

FAM20B Related Skeletal Dysplasia: Expanding the Prenatal Phenotype

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
FAM20B encodes glycosaminoglycan xylosylkinase, a key enzyme in proteoglycan biosynthesis. We report compound heterozygous FAM20B variants causing severe, lethal skeletal dysplasia in three fetuses from two pregnancies. Disrupted glycosaminoglycan chain formation leads to abnormal cartilage and bone development, illustrating the essential role of ...

Circulating Rhythmic Metabolites and Causal Risk of Type 2 Diabetes in Adults in the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Circadian regulation of metabolism is an important factor in metabolic health, yet the role of rhythmic metabolites in Type 2 diabetes development remains poorly understood. This study investigated associations between circulating rhythmic metabolites and incident Type 2 diabetes risk and evaluated causal relationships using two‐sample ...

Do aphid endosymbiotic bacteria influence parasitoid searching behaviour through changes in aphid honeydew production?

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Hamiltonella defensa infection increases honeydew production in certain aphid genotypes, potentially modifying aphid feeding behaviour. Parasitoid wasps, Aphidius ervi, are more attracted to honeydew from H. defensa‐infected aphids; though larger honeydew amounts may slightly deter searching.

Theoretical and Experimental Investigations of Acetal Formation During the Oxidation of Xylose to Formic Acid Catalysed by H5PV2Mo10O40 in Methanolic‐Aqueous Solution [PDF]

open access: yesChemSusChem
The substrate‐solvent interactions play a major role in the modified OxFA process. Herein, the formation and stability of several reaction intermediates via acetalization depending on solvent composition and reaction conditions is investigated. The BioValCat (Enhanced Biomass Valorization by Engineering of Polyoxometalate Catalysts) project aims at ...

Protein nanoparticles assemble in plants, display antigenic viral peptides, and produce an epitope‐specific immune response

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Current methods to control porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome, a disease affecting pigs, are insufficient and a safer, more effective vaccine is needed. This study describes the design and plant production of a self‐assembling protein nanoparticle vaccine candidate against this disease.

Zebrafish as a model for Catel–Manzke syndrome—identification and characterization of the zebrafish TGDS ortholog

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Zebrafish Tgds, when expressed as a recombinant protein, catalyzes the dehydration of UDP‐D‐glucose, the initial step in the formation of 6‐deoxyhexoses. Corresponding Tgds mutations found in Catel–Manzke syndrome patients lead to reduced enzymatic activity and stability.

Characterisation of a phylogenetically distinct PL25 family ulvan lyase from a seaweed biomass enriched metagenome

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Ulvan is a polysaccharide available from green seaweed with beneficial properties for various applications. The full potential of ulvan requires enzymatic degradation of the polymer, thus producing ulvan oligosaccharides. This study expands the armoury of characterised ulvan lyases.
