This universe is hidden around us in every corner, full of the wonders of life and the wisdom of nature. Let's embark on a journey into the microbial universe and discover the epic woven by those tiny organisms. Bacteria, viruses, fungi and other microorganisms are the basic elements of th...
The importance of peroxisomes in lipid metabolism is now well established and peroxisomes contain approximately 60 enzymes involved in these lipid metabolic pathways. Several acyl-CoA thioesterase enzymes (ACOTs) have been identified in peroxisomes that catalyze the hydrolysis of acyl-CoAs (short-, medi...
and even became a part of national regulation on foods containing probiotics in Indonesia. However, reliability of the safety assessment based only on a full genome sequence is not clear. Here,
performance or both in the medium term (5–10 years). Looking further out, positive electrode active materials based on conversion reactions, like sulfur or oxygen, could present an opportunity for the further cost reduction of lithium-based batteries, although generally at the expense of cell ...
However, previous efforts have mostly targeted the major constituents of woody biomass: cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin. Here we report the engineering of wood structure through the introduction of callose, a polysaccharide novel to most secondary cell walls. Our multiscale analysis of genetically ...
Although this microscope was originally conceived and developed for studying non-biological materials such as metals and small electronics parts, biologists immediately recognized the importance of the tool and began to use it in the early 1930s. One of the most impressive features of the electron ...
(approximated as blood plasma at 37 °C based on a similar presence of dissolved salts [45]), a diffusivity constant of 2.69 × 10–5 cm2/s (approximated for culture medium at 37 °C [46]), and a maximal oxygen consumption rate by the cells of 113 fmol/cell/h [47] (60,...
IgE binding studies with a serum panel from peach allergic subjects showed digestion reduced, but did not abolish, the IgE reactivity of Pru p 3. These data show the importance of including bile salts in vitro digestion systems and emphasise the need to profile of digestion in a manner that ...
Considering the importance of DNA yield and quality for downstream applications such as PCR or HTS, selecting proper methods and optimising DNA extraction from metal-rich environments are equally important to reduce the burdens and biases from microbial community analysis. In the energy sector, ...
