The major cell wall polymer of Kineosporia aurantiaca VKM Ac-702T a representative of the suborder Frankineae, is a galactomannan with a repeating unit of the following structure: -->3)-beta-D-Galp-(1-->6)-beta-D-Manp-(1-->4)-beta-D-Manp-(1-->3)-beta-D-Galp-(1-->4)-beta-D-Manp-(1-->4)-beta-D-Manp-(1--> that has not been reported so far. This was established using chemical degradation methods and NMR spectroscopy. The polysaccharide identified in the present study provides the second example of neutral galactomannans in actinomycete cell walls. The cell wall of K. aurantiaca VKM Ac-702T also contains a minor teichoic acid, viz., 1,3-poly(glycerol phosphate) partially substituted with alpha-glucosamine residues, only part of which are N-acetylated.

Objective: This study investigates the MRI characteristics of primary and metastatic adult granulosa cell tumor with normal estrogen levels (AGCT-NEL) to enhance clinical understanding and diagnostic accuracy of this disease.
Methods: We collected clinical data from 10 patients with AGCT-NEL, confirmed by pathology, treated at our hospital from January 2016 to January 2024. We retrospectively analyzed the MRI features of primary and metastatic lesions from aspects such as shape, edge characteristics, MRI signal, and enhancement features.

The ability to quench reactive oxygen species (ROS) overproduced in plant chloroplasts under light stress conditions is essential for securing plant photosynthetic performance and agricultural yield. Although genetic engineering can enhance plant stress resistance, its widespread application faces limitations due to challenges in successful transformation across plant species and public acceptance concerns. This study proposes a nontransgenic chemical approach using a designed chimeric peptide that scavenges ROS within plant chloroplasts for managing light stress.
