These conversion techniques are based on the use of recalcitrant lignocellulosic biomass as feedstock. The energy contained in lignocellulosic biomass is largely entrapped in the plant cell wall, which is built up of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin and can make up to 70% of the total plant ...
Luminescent nanomaterials (LNMs), especially newly-exploited fluorescent carbon-dots (CDs), have demonstrated promising candidates for sunlight harvesting and enhanced photosynthesis efficiency of crops. However, most of the studies focus on the design a
Harvested fruit undergo carbon and energy deprivation. However, the events underlying this energy-related stress in detached fruit and their involvement in cell damage have not yet been elucidated. We showed that supplementing detached sweet oranges with
Therefore, it has become very important to reduce the expression of PD-L1 or prevent the binding of PD-L1 to PD-1. PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors have been applied in melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC)10,11 and renal cancer12, and have achieved certain effects, but their broader ...
Cupredoxin Cytochromes Iron–sulfur proteins Metalloenzymes Secondary coordination sphere Non-covalent interactions 1. Introduction A significant portion of biological processes are involved with providing vital energy sources such as ATP, and controlling the flow of energy through living systems. These bio...
The marine alga Nannochloropsis oceanica, an emerging model belonging to Heterokont, is considered as a promising light-driven eukaryotic chassis for transforming carbon dioxide to various compounds including carotenoids. Nevertheless, the carotenogenic genes and their roles in the alga remain less underst...
This phenotypic switch is associated with changes in cell wall composition, the presence of antigenic molecules, and expression of virulence traits. In general, dimorphism is known to be essential for virulence in the mammalian host (25) in pathogenic fungi in Blastomyces, Histoplasma, Para...
Intestinal mucosal microbiota mediate amino acid metabolism involved in the gastrointestinal adaptability to cold and humid environmental stress in mice Chen-Yang Zhang, Xin-Xin Peng, Yi Wu, Mai-Jiao Peng, Tiao-Hao Liu & Zhou-Jin Tan Microbial Cell Factories volume 23, Article number: 33 (2024...
The FC2 cells challenged with N-starvation for 160 h accumulated neutral lipids and displayed reduction in protein, carbohydrate and chlorophyll contents and biomass (dry cell weight) at physiological level (Fig. 1A). Herein, we describe the post-transcriptional responses of the N-starved FC2 ce...
Arl1 is an Arf-like (Arl) GTP-binding protein that interacts with the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Gea2 to recruit the golgin Imh1 to the Golgi. The Arl1–Gea2 complex also binds and activates the phosphatidylserine flippase Drs2 and these function
