Published: November 1991

Maltodextrins and hydrolysates of rice and corn flour of varying dextrose equivalents (DE) have been used as a carbon source for alpha-amylase enzyme production by Bacillus sp. TCRDC-25A. The rate and total enzyme production was higher in maltodextrin media than in cornstarch. The enzyme production increased with increase in DE up to 45%. The maximum enzyme production of 2390, 2450, and 2510 DUN/mL was obtained in cornstarch maltodextrins, and hydrolysates of corn and rice flours, respectively, in a bench-scale reactor in 40 h.

Plasma-Activated Water Boosts the Activity of Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenase and the Conversion of Chitin by a Chitinolytic Enzyme Cocktail.

J Agric Food Chem

January 2025

MOE Key Laboratory of Bio-Intelligent Manufacturing, School of Bioengineering, Dalian University of Technology, No. 2, Linggong Road, Dalian 116024, China.

The plasma-activated water (PAW) containing numerous reactive species can facilitate chitin degradation. Given the intricate interplay between PAW treatment and the diverse activities of chitinolytic enzymes, further investigation is imperative for enhancing the chitin bioconversion efficiency. This study revealed that PAW-treated chitin exhibited improved degradability toward LPMO10A, endochitinases ChtI, ChtII-B4C1, and exochitinase Chi-h.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) driven by the mutation presents a formidable health challenge because of limited treatment options. MRTX1133 is a highly selective and first-in-class KRAS-G12D inhibitor under clinical development. Here, we report that the advanced glycosylation end product-specific receptor (AGER) plays a key role in mediating MRTX1133 resistance in PDAC cells.

The chloroplast RNA-binding protein CP29A supports expression during cold acclimation.

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A

The chloroplast genome encodes key components of the photosynthetic light reaction machinery as well as the large subunit of the enzyme central for carbon fixation, Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphat-carboxylase/-oxygenase (RuBisCo). Its expression is predominantly regulated posttranscriptionally, with nuclear-encoded RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) playing a key role. Mutants of chloroplast gene expression factors often exhibit impaired chloroplast biogenesis, especially in cold conditions.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by NADPH oxidase promote contraction of peripheral arteries, which is especially pronounced in early postnatal period in comparison to adulthood, but the mechanisms of such vasomotor influence are poorly understood. We tested the hypothesis that Rho-kinase and protein kinase C (PKC) mediate procontractile influence of NADPH oxidase derived ROS in peripheral artery of early postnatal rats. In addition, we evaluated the involvement Src-kinase and L-type voltage-gated Ca channels (LTCC) into procontractile influence of ROS, produced by NADPH oxidase, because of their known interplay with Rho-kinase and PKC pathways.
