AI Article Synopsis
- Concerns over the effects of synthetic fungicides on health and the environment have led to a ban by various government bodies.
- Numerous studies have focused on finding biological alternatives that can effectively prevent fungal growth, aiming for similar efficacy to chemical pesticides.
- This review highlights key research on non-yeast biological antagonists aimed at fighting phytopathogenic fungi affecting table grapes, wine grapes, and raisins.
Article Abstract
In view of the growing concern about the impact of synthetic fungicides on human health and the environment, several government bodies have decided to ban them. As a result, a great number of studies have been carried out in recent decades with the aim of finding a biological alternative to inhibit the growth of fungal pathogens. In order to avoid the large losses of fruit and vegetables that these pathogens cause every year, the biological alternative's efficacy should be the same as that of a chemical pesticide. In this review, the main studies discussed concern and non- yeasts as potential antagonists against phytopathogenic fungi of the genera and and the species on table grapes, wine grapes, and raisins.

Model organisms are commonly used to study human diseases; we set out to understand the relevance of several model organisms with relation to the σ1R protein. The study explored the interactions of σ1R with various agonists, antagonists across different species. Ligand and protein-protein (σ1R-BiP) docking approaches were used to understand the significance of σ1R in modulating neuroprotective mechanisms and its potential role in Alzheimer's.

Long AT repeat tracts form non-B DNA structures that stall DNA replication and cause chromosomal breakage. AT repeats are abundant in human common fragile sites (CFSs), genomic regions that undergo breakage under replication stress. Using an in vivo yeast model system containing AT-rich repetitive elements from human CFS FRA16D, we find that DNA polymerase zeta (Pol ζ) is required to prevent breakage and subsequent deletions at hairpin and cruciform forming (AT/TA)n sequences, with little to no role at an (A/T)28 repeat or a control non-structure forming sequence.

Mitochondria from harbor a branched electron-transport chain containing a proton-pumping Complex I NADH dehydrogenase and three Type II NADH dehydrogenases (NDH-2). To investigate the physiological role, localization and substrate specificity of these enzymes, the growth of various NADH dehydrogenase knockout mutants was quantitatively characterized in shake-flask and chemostat cultures, followed by oxygen-uptake experiments with isolated mitochondria. NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreduction of the three NDH-2 were individually assessed.

In aerobic life forms, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced by the partial reduction of oxygen during energy-generating metabolic processes. In plants, ROS production increases during periods of both abiotic and biotic stress, severely overloading the antioxidant systems. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) plays a central role in cellular redox homeostasis and signaling by oxidising crucial cysteines to sulfenic acid, which is considered a biologically relevant post-translational modification (PTM).
