Systemic, Lifestyle and Environmental Modifying Factors in the Pathogenesis of Periodontitis

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
A variety of impacting factors in the pathogenesis of periodontitis exist, including systemic, lifestyle, and environmental factors. This review highlights the manifold mechanistic aspects of the link between the pathogenesis of periodontitis, addressing these numerous factors to supplement the long‐standing knowledge of the progression of the disease.

Protein STM3547 From Salmonella typhimurium Is a Phosphofructose Kinase B‐Type Enzyme With Ribose Kinase Activity

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.
The metabolism of ribose starts with the phosphorylation of its 5′ hydroxyl group. Salmonella typhimurium has two kinases that perform this function, namely ribose rinase (RbsK) and deoxyribose kinase (DeoK). Here we report a new ribose kinase that we named RikA. The illustration was partially created in BioRender.

Conserved symbiosis‐associated genes in the cycad Encephalartos natalensis suggest co‐option for cyanobacterial symbiosis

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
The heterocyst‐rich Encephalartos natalensis cyanobacterial zone in coralloid root suggests co‐option of conserved symbiosis‐associated genes. This figure was created in BioRender (BioRender.com/https://BioRender.com/n3qveqc). Summary Plant‐cyanobacterial symbioses have evolved independently at least four times across land plants, yet their underlying ...

GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists and Weight Loss: A Critical Review of Mechanisms

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT GLP‐1 receptor agonist medications have the potential to promote marked weight loss, but maximal and sustained benefit may be compromised by poor compliance and cessation of use. Development of next‐generation medications that address current obstacles to effective use and development of effective adjunct treatments will benefit from better ...

Engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae harbors xylose isomerase and xylose transporter improves co-fermentation of xylose and glucose for ethanol production

Preparative Biochemistry & Biotechnology
Saccharomyces cerevisiae cannot assimilate xylose, second to glucose derived from lignocellulosic biomass. Here, the engineered S. cerevisiae strains INVSc-XI and INVSc-XI/XT were constructed using xylA and Xltr1p to co-utilize xylose and glucose, achieving economic viability and sustainable production of fuels.

Calcium and Nitrogen Availability Controls Root Exudation in Hydroponically Cultured Barley

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Root exudation is a key component of plant‐rhizosphere interactome. It is increasingly evident that root exudates influence rhizospheric microbial communities and in turn can benefit plants through improved resource allocation. However, how suboptimal nutrient availability relates to control of root exudation is poorly understood.
