On the basis of theoretical analysis of different mRNAs secondary structure it is suggested that the efficiency of procaryotic translation initiation depends to a great extent on the possibility to generate a single-stranded region around the initiation codon. The local disruption of the mRNA secondary structure is mostly determined by interaction according to Shine--Dalgarno of 16S rRNA with the complementary mRNA region. Other mechanisms of single-stranded region generation in the initiation zone of mRNA are discussed.

Streptofilum capillatum was recently described and immediately caught scientific attention, because it forms a phylogenetically deep branch in the streptophytes and is characterised by a unique cell coverage composed of piliform scales. Its phylogenetic position and taxonomic rank are still controversial discussed. In the present study, we isolated further strains of Streptofilum from biocrusts in sand dunes and Arctic tundra soil.

Glycosylated peptides isolated from cheese whey have antifreezing activity.

Food Chem

December 2024

Department of Food Science, The University of Tennessee, Knoxville (UTK), TN 37996, United States. Electronic address:

The glycomacropeptide (GMP) present in the cheese whey byproduct can be an excellent antifreezing agent due to its unique molecular structure. The objective of this study was to concentrate this peptide and investigate its ice recrystallization inhibition (IRI) ability. Heat denaturation of the non-GMP proteins and preparative liquid chromatography were used to create fraction 1 (F1) and fraction 2 (F2) and these were tested using the splat assay and a modified sucrose sandwich assay to investigate their IRI activity.

The interaction between proteins and aroma compounds significantly impacts cheese flavor retention during processing. However, it is still unknown how cheese proteins and the aldehyde aroma compounds (AACs) interact. This study aims to clarify the interaction mechanisms between the AACs (benzaldehyde, 2-methylpropanal, 2-methylbutanal and 3-methylbutanal) and β-casein (β-CN) using SPME-GC/MS, multi-spectroscopy techniques, and molecular dynamics simulations.
