Background: Monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) belongs to the serine hydrolase family; it catalyzes MAG to produce glycerol and free fatty acids (FFAs), which is the final step in triacylglycerol (TAG) hydrolysis. The effects of MAGL on comprehensive lipid metabolism and plant growth and development have not been elucidated, especially in Arachis hypogaea, an important oil crop.
Results: Herein, AhMAGL3b encoding a protein with both hydrolase and acyltransferase regions, a member of MAGL gene family, was cloned and overexpressed in Arabidopsis thaliana.

Background: The use of enzymes within pig feed can reduce the challenges associated with antibiotic-free animal feeding. However, this enzymatic effect is often limited by the internal and external gut environment. This study aimed to improve diet quality and assess the impact of an enzymatically hydrolyzed diet (EHD) on growth performance, meat quality, and intestinal health in growing pigs.

A series of ten topiramate-phenolic acid conjugates (T1-T10) were synthesized, and evaluated for their pancreatic lipase inhibitory and antioxidant potentials. The design of the compounds reflected the structural attributes extracted from robust QSAR models developed for predicting the pancreatic lipase inhibition potency. Conjugate T4 competitively inhibited pancreatic lipase with IC value of 8.

Antibiotics play a crucial role in human and animal medical healthcare, but widespread use and overuse of antibiotics poses alarming health and environmental issues. Fluoroquinolones constitute a class of antibiotics that has already become ubiquitous in the environment, and their increasing use and high persistence prompt growing concern. Here we investigated a fungal secretome prepared from the white-rot fungus , which is able to effectively degrade the environmentally persistent fluoroquinolone, levofloxacin.

The rational dietary ratio of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) to eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) can exert neurotrophic and cardiotrophic effects on the human body. The marine microalga produces EPA yet no DHA, and thus, it is considered an ideal EPA-only model to pursue a rational DHA/EPA ratio. In this study, synthetic biological strategy was applied to improve EPA production in .
