Peptones are one of the most expensive components of microbial culture media. The present study was conducted to test the usability of low-cost sheep wool peptone (SWP) as an organic nitrogen source in the production of six industrially important enzymes (lipase, amylase, tannase, pectinase, cellulase and invertase). SWP was prepared by alkaline hydrolysis and acid neutralization. and were selected as test microorganisms for enzyme production. To evaluate the efficacy of SWP in enzyme production, it was compared with commercial tryptone peptone (TP) in the shaking flask cultures of the test microorganisms. The optimum concentration of both SWP and TP was determined to be 8 g/L for the production of -derived enzymes, but 6 g/L for the production of -derived enzymes. It was determined that SWP was superior to TP in the production of four enzymes (lipase, amylase, tannase and pectinase) of both and This is the first study about the usage of sheep wool protein hydrolysate (SWP) as an organic nitrogen source or a peptone in fermentative production of microbial enzymes.

Decorin (DCN) is a member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan family within the extracellular matrix, playing a role in the growth and development of hair follicle (HF). Exosomes serve as significant mediators of intercellular communication and are involved in the cyclic regeneration of HF. Exosomes derived from dermal papilla cells (DPC-Exos) are essential for the cycling and regrowth of HF.

Background: Mutations in the presenilin 1 (PSEN1) gene cause early onset autosomal dominant Alzheimer's Disease (AD), and the Jalisco mutation (A431E) is a subset found in people of Mexican descent (Yescas P, 2006). The Jalisco A431E mutation has been shown to produce distinct AD neuropathology such as cotton-wool amyloid plaques as well as motor dysfunction like spastic paraparesis (Orozco-Barajas, 2022). High levels of tau neuropathology have been observed with other PSEN1 mutations, but tau neuropathology in Jalisco patients has not been examined.

Development of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC-CO) dyeing technology for natural fabrics and their blended fabrics is essential for the textile industry due to environmental and economic considerations. Wool (W), polyester (PET) and nylon (N) fabrics and their wool/polyester (W/PET) and wool/nylon (W/N) blended fabrics were dyed in SC-CO medium with a synthesized reactive disperse dye containing a vinylsulphone (VS) reactive group, which behaves as a disperse dye for synthetic fibers and a reactive dye for protein fibers. The SC-CO dyeing performance of all fabrics was investigated in terms of color strength, fixation, colorimetric and fastness measurements and compared with the conventional aqueous dyeing method.

Keratin is an important biopolymer used to develop biomaterials for biomedical and industrial applications. Traditional keratin extraction methods involve the removal of surface lipids using organic solvents, detergents, and energy-intensive processes that often compromise the purity of the extracted keratin. In the present study, wool fibers were microbially disintegrated to isolate cortical cells, achieving a maximum yield of 61.

Background: The fat tail of sheep is an adaptive trait that facilitates their adaptation to harsh natural environments. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been demonstrated to play crucial roles in the regulation of tail fat deposition.
Methods: In this study, miRNA-Seq was employed to investigate the expression profiles of miRNAs during different developmental stages of sheep fat tails and elucidate the functions of differentially expressed miRNAs (DE miRNAs).
