, 2005). They are typically high in cysteine residues, which can result in numerous disulfides. These disulfides, in turn, cross-brace plant antimicrobial peptides as cystine-rich peptides, giving them exceptional chemical, thermal, and proteolytic stability (Tam et al., 2015). Montesinos et...

Antimicrobial peptides, both synthetic and from natural sources, have raised interest as pathogens become resistant against conventional antibiotics. Indeed, one of the major strengths of this class of molecules is their ability to kill multidrug-resistant bacteria. Antimicrobial peptides are relatively ...
have been recurrently introduced in constructs used for genetic modification of plants. To test whether a sample may or not contain GM plant material, laboratories use these sequences as screening elements15. Diagnostic is mostly based on real-time PCR detection targeting the sequences of interest ...
the associated food microbiota is of great importance and interest. Recent studies on the microbiome of African fermented foods using high-throughput DNA sequencing techniques have revealed the presence of diverse microbial populations of fundamental, technological, and commercial interest that could be har...
In particular, in this review, we report and critically discuss the most recent research dealing with the effects of the application of plant biostimulants both on crop growth and on plant salinity resistance. Keywords: biostimulants; salinity stress; plant growth promoter; Arbuscular mycorrhizal ...
Having to constantly rely on access to great amounts of water, the oil and gas industry has sought opportunities to reclaim water using sustainable and efficient management procedures. An on-site pilot plant treatment study on real refinery stripped sour water using RO was conducted to remove the...
Below, we present a novel grouping scheme in the categorization of alkaloids, relying on their molecular mechanism of action as agents that induce apoptosis in cancerous cells. Table 1. Activity of newly emerging anti-neoplastic plant-derived alkaloids on cancer cell lines. A...
Also, AMPs can be isolated from various plants and parts of the plant like, leaves, roots, seeds, flowers & fruits. Aim: To know the different antimicrobial peptides isolated from the plants and to provide an outlook on their biotechnological potential.Hansini Singh...
