Collimonas sp. (D-25), found in the soil of Akita Prefecture, is a gram-negative bacterium with the ability to synthesize gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). During the synthesis of AuNPs, one specific protein (DP-1) was found to have disappeared in the sonicated solution of the bacterium. Recombinant DP-1 (rDP-1) from Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) was used to study the effect of DP-1 on the synthesis of AuNPs. AuNPs synthesized with rDP-1 result in small, stabilized nanoparticles. AuNPs synthesized by DP-1 retained the stability of both the dispersion and nano-size particles under high salt concentrations. Isothermal titration calorimetry was employed to investigate the bonding ratio of rDP-1 to AuNPs. Several thousand rDP-1 proteins are attached to the surface of an AuNP to form a protein corona containing multiple layers. These results suggest that DP-1 obtained from D-25 has a size and stability control function during AuNP synthesis.

Intervertebral disc degeneration (IVDD) is a common contributor for low back pain, which is featured by loss of extracellular matrix and nucleus pulposus cells (NPCs). Hence, our current study is undertaken to explore the potential mechanism of NPC apoptosis during IVDD. Transcription factor Dp-1 (TFDP1) expression in degenerative and non-degenerative intervertebral disc tissues was analyzed by bioinformatics.

Chitosanases are valuable enzymatic tools in the food industry for converting chitosan into functional chitooligosaccharides (COSs). However, most of the chitosanases extensively characterized produced a low degree of polymerization (DP) COSs (DP = 1-3, LdpCOSs), indicating an imperative for enhancements in the product specificity for the high DP COS (DP >3, HdpCOSs) production. In this study, a chitosanase from sp.

In Brief: Aberration in cell cycle progression is one of the essential mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis, making regulators of cell cycle reasonable anti-cancer therapeutic targets. Here, we dissected the regulatory mechanism involving the novel axis ZNF146/TFDP1/DEPDC1B in the cell cycle in ovarian cancer.

Aim: The present study evaluated the therapeutic effects of luteolin in alleviating pulpitis of dental pulp- (DP-) derived microvesicles (MVs) via the inhibition of protein kinase R- (PKR-) mediated inflammation. . Proteomic analysis of immortalized human dental pulp (DP-1) cell-derived MVs was performed to identify PKR-associated molecules.

Alginate lyase has been demonstrated as an efficient tool in the preparation of functional oligosaccharides (AOS) from alginate. The high viscosity resulting from the high concentration of alginate poses a limiting factor affecting enzymatic hydrolysis, particularly in the preparation of the fragments with low degrees of polymerization (DP). Herein, a PL7 family alginate lyase Algt from DSM 19189 was developed and expressed in .
