Pseudomonas aeruginosa grows readily on synthetic media containing succinate (36 mM) and ammonium chloride as sole source of nitrogen (34 mM) ; addition of tyrosine or phenylalanine (2,7 mM) is followed by an increase of both the growth rate and pyocyanine production. Several molecules structurally related to tyrosine give similar results. Tyrosine partially suppresses the inhibitory effect of both cyanide and azide. The results are discussed with regard to the biosynthesis of aromatic aminoacids and of phenazine pigments.

In order to study the pattern of changes in quality of marinated Chinese mitten crabs (Eriocheir sinensis) during cold storage, three aspects of sensory, taste and odor were investigated. Sensory evaluation and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) were measured in viscera and abdomen muscle at 0, 7, 15 and 30 days of storage at 4°C. Sensory scores significantly declined at 15 d, coinciding with TVB-N levels exceeding 25 mg N/100 g.

Peptide stapling techniques have historically relied on metal-catalyzed chemical reactions, with no examples using enzymes. Here, inspired by tyrosinase-mediated oxidation, we describe the efficient side-chain to side-chain coupling of p-amino phenylalanine (Z) and tyrosine (Y) amino acids using a commercially available tyrosinase. Stapling reactions between the i, i+3 to i, i+7 positions were all performed, proceeding in good conversion and under mild conditions compatible with various side chains, functional motifs and ring sizes, with the Z-Y product found to be more stable and obtained in a higher yield than the Y-Z product.

Blueberry plants are among the most important fruit-bearing shrubs, but they have shallow, hairless roots that are not conducive to water and nutrient uptake, especially under drought conditions. Therefore, the mechanism underlying blueberry root drought tolerance should be clarified. Hence, we established a yeast expression library comprising blueberry genes associated with root responses to drought stress.

In this study, new monolithic poly(9-anthracenylmethyl methacrylate-co-trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TRIM) columns, referred as ANM monoliths were prepared, for the first time, and were used for the separation media for biomolecules and proteomics analysis by nano-liquid chromatography (nano-LC). Monolithic columns were prepared by in situ polymerization of 9-anthracenylmethyl methacrylate (ANM) and trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate (TRIM) in a fused silica capillary column of 100 µm ID. Polymerization solution was optimized in relation to monomer and porogenic solvent.
