Detailed kinetic and thermodynamic parameters for lysine production from Brevibacterium lactofermentum are investigated for the first time in this study. Production of the essential amino acid, L-lysine, by B. lactofermentum was assessed in a flask and a continuously stirred tank fermentor (22 L). Maximum lysine production was achieved after 40 h of growth and at 35 °C. The effect of different nitrogen sources such as NH(4)NO(3), (NH(4))(2)SO(4), (NH(4))(2)HPO(4), corn steep liquor, NaNO(3), and urea showed that corn steep liquor gave a better lysine yield. Lysine production was increased when dissolved oxygen was maintained at 50 % saturation. The use of dissolved oxygen was critical for high productivity. This indicates that dissolved oxygen greatly affects L-lysine productivity. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters during lysine production from molasses and glucose mixture showed that B. lactofermentum efficiently converted the substrate mixture into cell mass and lysine. Kinetic and thermodynamic parameters were significantly higher compared with other microorganisms which may be due to the high metabolic activity of B. lactofermentum. This study will have a significant impact on future strategies for lysine production at industrial scale.

Protein succinylation, a post-translational modification wherein a succinyl group (-CO-CH₂-CH₂-CO-) attaches to lysine residues, plays a critical regulatory role in cellular processes. Dysregulated succinylation has been implicated in the onset and progression of various diseases, including liver, cardiac, pulmonary, and neurological disorders. However, identifying succinylation sites through experimental methods is often labor-intensive, costly, and technically challenging.

Enzyme immobilization techniques are crucial for enhancing enzyme stability and catalytic efficiency. Traditional methods such as physical adsorption and simple covalent binding often fail to maintain enzyme activity and stability. In this study, an innovative multi-level immobilization strategy was proposed to achieve efficient targeted immobilization of nuclease P1 (NP1) by fine-tuning the surface microenvironment.

Preslaughter stress induced a negative energy balance of broilers, resulted in an accelerated glycolysis and finally led to an inferior meat quality. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of creatine monohydrate (CMH) supplementation on muscle energy storage, antioxidant capacity, the glycolysis of postmortem muscle and the metabolite profiles in muscle of broilers subjected to preslaughter transport. Two hundred and forty broilers were chosen and randomly allocated into three treatments (group A, group B and group C), comprising 8 replicates (10 broilers each replicate).

The histone acetylation modification is a conservative post-translational epigenetic regulation in fungi. It includes acetylation and deacetylation at the lysine residues of histone, which are catalyzed by histone acetyltransferase (HAT) and deacetylase (HDAC), respectively. The histone acetylation modification plays crucial roles in fungal growth and development, environmental stress response, secondary metabolite (SM) biosynthesis, and pathogenicity.

Alfalfa silage due to its high protein can lead to easier feeding management, but its high proportion of rumen-degradable protein can reduce rumen nitrogen utilization. Nevertheless, increasing dietary energy can enhance ruminal microbial protein synthesis. Thirty-two Suffolk female sheep were used in this study, with a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatment.
