Li, Ning published the artcileIdentification of the carbohydrate and organic acid metabolism genes responsible for Brix in tomato fruit by transcriptome and metabolome analysis, COA of Formula: C4H6O5, the main research area is carbohydrate organic acid metabolism Brix tomato fruit transcriptome metabolome; TCA cycle; carbohydrate; fruit brix; metabolic; organic acid; tomato; transcriptome.

Sugar and organic acids not only contribute to the formation of soluble solids (Brix) but also are an essential factor affecting the overall flavor intensity. However, the possible metabolic targets and mol. synthesis mechanisms remain to be further clarified. UHPLC-HRMS (ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatog. and high-resolution mass spectrometry) combined with comparative transcriptome anal. were performed in fruits at green ripe (S1), turning-color (S2), and red ripe (S3) stages of two tomato genotypes TM-1 (Solanum galapagense L., LA0436) and TM-38 (S. lycopersicum L. cultivar M82, LA3475) that vary in fruit Brix. The fruit Brix of TM-1 was nearly twice that of TM-38 at S3. Nevertheless, TM-1 accumulated 1.84- and 2.77-fold the L-malic acid and citric acid in red ripe fruit (S3) compared with TM-38, resp. D-glucose and D-fructose in TM-1 and TM-38 fruits tended to be similar at S3. Concomitantly, the sugar/organic acid ratio of TM-38 fruits were 23. 08-, 4. 38-, and 2.59-fold higher than that of TM-1 fruits at S1, S2, and S3, resp. Among starch and sucrose (carbohydrate, CHO) metabolism (ko00500) genes, SUS (Solyc07g042550.3) and BAM (Solyc08g077530.3) were pos. (r = 0.885-0.931) correlated with the sugar/organic acid ratio. Besides, INV (Solyc09g010080.3 and Solyc09g010090.5.1), AAM (Solyc04g082090.3), 4-α-GTase (Solyc02g020980.2.1), BGL2 (Solyc06g073750.4, Solyc06g073760.3, and Solyc01g081170.3), TPS (Solyc01g005210.2 and Solyc07g006500.3), and TPP (Solyc08g079060.4) were neg. (r = -0.823 to -0.918) correlated with the sugar/organic acid ratio. The organic acid (TCA cycle) metabolism (ko00020) gene ALMT (Solyc01g096140.3) was also neg. (r = -0.905) correlated with the sugar/organic acid ratio. Citric acid may play a more dominant role in the sugar/organic acid ratio of the tomato fruit, and the contribution of both L-malic acid and citric acid to the fruit Brix was much greater than that of D-glucose and D-fructose. Genes involved in CHO and TCA metabolism, which have a significant correlation with the sugar/organic acid ratio were considered to be the contributing factors of fruit Brix.

Wang, Delong published the artcileGuaiacol as a natural melanin biosynthesis inhibitor to control northern corn leaf blight, Application In Synthesis of 124-76-5, the main research area is guaiacol natural melanin essential oil corn leaf blight; DHN melanin biosynthesis inhibitor; guaiacol; northern corn leaf blight; plant essential oil compounds.

BACKGROUND : The natural 1,8-dihydroxynaphthalene (DHN) melanin biosynthesis inhibitors (MBIs) are one of the promising approaches to the integrated management of plant diseases but have received scarce attention until now. Herein, to explore the natural DHN MBIs used in the control of northern corn leaf blight (NCLB), a library of 53 essential oil compounds was used to screen the MBIs against Exserohilum turcicum, the causal pathogen of NCLB, using tricyclazole as a reference compound RESULTS : The results of morphol. change in the colony, thermogravimetric anal., UV-visible spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy confirmed that guaiacol could effectively inhibit the melanin production at 50 μg/mL under in vitro conditions. The in vitro bioassay results indicated that this inhibition effect was concentration-dependent and the min. inhibition concentration of guaiacol was 50 μg/mL. The in vivo exptl. results demonstrated that guaiacol significantly inhibited appressorium formation and penetration on corn leaf sheaths at the concentration of 500 μg/mL. The pot experiment results revealed that there were no differences between guaiacol (500 μg/mL) and tricyclazole (100 μg/mL) in control efficacy. The enzymic assay suggested that guaiacol might exert the activity through inhibiting DHN polymerization to form melanins, which was distinct from tricyclazole. CONCLUSIONS : Taken together, this study screened out guaiacol as a natural MBI from 53 essential oil compounds and verified its effectiveness in the control of NCLB at 500 μg/mL. Above all, this research opened an avenue for exploring natural DHN MBIs in the integrated management of plant diseases. 2022 Society of Chem. Industry.

Chiffoleauu-Giraud, V. published the artcileβ-Galactosidase transferase activity in ice and use of vinyl-β-D-galactoside as donor, HPLC of Formula: 2595-07-5, the main research area is oligosaccharide disaccharide preparation enzymic; vinylgalactoside transglycosidation glycoside galactosidase catalyst.

The ability of vinyl-β-D-galactoside as a donor in transglycosylation reactions catalyzed by the β-glycosidase from Aspergillus oryzae using allylic alc. and methyl-α-galactoside as acceptors is tested. A kinetic study made in comparison with another donor, the 2-nitrophenyl-β-D-galactoside, shows that the use of the latter leads at room temperature to better yields than those obtained form the former. A reverse situation is observed in ice at -7°C, conditions in which the yield for transglycosylation can be enhanced from 59% to 82% with methyl-α-galactoside as an acceptor.

Hu, Dongwen published the artcilePolysaccharide from Mulberry Fruit (Morus alba L.) Protects against Palmitic-Acid-Induced Hepatocyte Lipotoxicity by Activating the Nrf2/ARE Signaling Pathway, COA of Formula: C6H12O6, the main research area is mulberry fruit polysaccharide lipotoxicity oxidative stress signaling pathway; Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway; lipotoxicity; mulberry fruit; oxidative stress; palmitic acid; polysaccharide.

This study was aimed to investigate the protective effects of three different mulberry fruit polysaccharide fractions (MFP-I, MFP-II, and MFP-III) against palmitic acid (PA)-induced hepatocyte lipotoxicity and characterize the functional polysaccharide fraction using gel permeation chromatog., high-performance liquid chromatog., Fourier transform IR spectroscopy, and NMR analyses. MFP-I, MFP-II, and MFP-III were isolated from mulberry fruit by stepwise precipitation with 30, 60, and 90% ethanol, resp. MFP-II at 0.1 and 0.2 mg/mL dramatically attenuated PA-induced hepatic lipotoxicity, while MFP-I and MFP-III showed weak protection. It was demonstrated that MFP-II not only increased nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) phosphorylation and its nuclear translocation, thereby activating the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway, but also enhanced heme oxygenase 1, NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1, and γ-glutamate cysteine ligase gene expressions and promoted catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities, which protected hepatocytes against PA-induced oxidative stress and lipotoxicity. Further investigation indicated that the mol. weight of MFP-II was 115.0 kDa, and MFP-II mainly consisted of galactose (30.5%), arabinose (26.2%), and rhamnose (23.1%). Overall, our research might provide in-depth insight into mulberry fruit polysaccharide in ameliorating lipid metabolic disorders.

Flynn, Ryan A. published the artcileSmall RNAs are modified with N-glycans and displayed on the surface of living cells, Recommanded Product: (2R,3S,4S,5R)-2,3,4,5,6-Pentahydroxyhexanal, the main research area is small noncoding RNA N glycan glycoRNA Siglec receptor; RNA biology; glycoRNA; glycobiology; siglec; small RNAs.

Glycans modify lipids and proteins to mediate inter- and intramol. interactions across all domains of life. RNA is not thought to be a major target of glycosylation. Here, we challenge this view with evidence that mammals use RNA as a third scaffold for glycosylation. Using a battery of chem. and biochem. approaches, we found that conserved small noncoding RNAs bear sialylated glycans. These “”glycoRNAs”” were present in multiple cell types and mammalian species, in cultured cells, and in vivo. GlycoRNA assembly depends on canonical N-glycan biosynthetic machinery and results in structures enriched in sialic acid and fucose. Anal. of living cells revealed that the majority of glycoRNAs were present on the cell surface and can interact with anti-dsRNA antibodies and members of the Siglec receptor family. Collectively, these findings suggest the existence of a direct interface between RNA biol. and glycobiol., and an expanded role for RNA in extracellular biol.

Jeong, Da Min published the artcileGenomic features, aroma profiles, and probiotic potential of the Debaryomyces hansenii species complex strains isolated from Korean soybean fermented food, Related Products of alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is Debaryomyces hansenii soybean fermented food genomics aroma probiotic potential; Debaryomyces spp.; Fermented soy sauce; Flavor profile; Halotolerance; Immunomodulatory activity; Whole-genome sequencing.

Fermented soybean products are gaining attention in the food industry owing to their nutritive value and health benefits. In this study, we performed genomic anal. and physiol. characterization of two Debaryomyces spp. yeast isolates obtained from a Korean traditional fermented soy sauce “”ganjang””. Both Debaryomyces hansenii ganjang isolates KD2 and C11 showed halotolerance to concentrations of up to 15% NaCl and improved growth in the presence of salt. Ploidy and whole-genome sequencing analyses indicated that the KD2 genome is haploid, whereas the C11 genome is heterozygous diploid with two distinctive subgenomes. Interestingly, phylogenetic anal. using intron sequences indicated that the C11 strain was generated via hybridization between D. hansenii and D. tyrocola ancestor strains. The D. hansenii KD2 and D. hansenii-hybrid C11 produced various volatile flavor compounds associated with butter, caramel, cheese, and fruits, and showed high bioconversion activity from ferulic acid to 4-vinylguaiacol, a characteristic flavor compound of soybean products. Both KD2 and C11 exhibited viability in the presence of bile salts and at low pH and showed immunomodulatory activity to induce high levels of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. The safety of the yeast isolates was confirmed by analyzing virulence and acute oral toxicity. Together, the D. hansenii ganjang isolates possess physiol. properties beneficial for improving the flavor and nutritional value of fermented products.

Foong, Choon Pin published the artcileEngineered mutants of a marine photosynthetic purple nonsulfur bacterium with increased volumetric productivity of polyhydroxyalkanoate bioplastics, Related Products of alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is mutagenesis polyhydroxyalkanoate bioplastic Rhodovulum; Rhodovulum sulfidophilum; biopolymer; fluorescence-activated cell sorting; genome-wide mutagenesis; microbial cell factory; strain improvement.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are green and sustainable bioplastics that could replace petrochem. synthetic plastics without posing environmental threats to living organisms. In addition, sustainable PHA production could be achieved using marine photosynthetic purple nonsulfur bacteria (PNSBs) that utilize natural seawater, sunlight, carbon dioxide gas, and nitrogen gas for growth. However, PHA production using marine photosynthetic PNSBs has not been economically feasible yet due to its high cost and low productivity. In this work, strain improvement, using genome-wide mutagenesis coupled with high-throughput screening via fluorescence-actived cell sorting, we were able to create Rhodovulum sulfidophilium mutants with enhanced volumetric PHA productivity, with an up to 1.7-fold increase. The best selected mutants (E6 and E6M4) reached the stationary growth phase 1 day faster and accumulated the maximum PHA content 2 days faster than the wild type. Maximizing volumetric PHA productivity before the stationary growth phase is indeed an addnl. advantage for R. sulfidophilum as a growth-associated PHA producer.

Leyva-Gutierrez, Francisco M. A. published the artcileCharacterization of by-products from commercial cannabidiol production, Recommanded Product: rel-(1R,2R,4R)-1,7,7-Trimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]heptan-2-ol, the main research area is cannabidiol byproduct; cannabidiol; cannabinoids; chemical characterization; manufacturing by-products.

The chem. compositions of byproducts from com. cannabidiol (CBD) extraction were characterized and quantitated by employing gas chromatog. mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and GC flame-ionization detection (GC-FID). 2-Pentadecanone,isophytol. The four major byproducts included an ethanol-wax suspension (WAX), terpenoid distillate (DIST-A), tar-like residue (TAR), and red resin (RES). The composition of WAX consisted of 2̃8 wt% n-alkanes and 3̃3-38 wt% cannabidiolic acid and CBD combined. The DIST-A consisted of 4̃0 wt% sesquiterpenoids and 5̃8 wt% cannabinoids. The DIST-A terpenoid profile was compared to dried unprocessed inflorescences (HEMP) to observe changes in monoterpene content after the distillation process. The TAR was composed of 5̃-9 wt% higher n-alkanes and up to 91 wt% cannabinoids, while RES consisted of up to 99 wt% cannabinoids. Several impurities including cannabidibutol and dehydroabietic acid were identified in com. CBD samples. Compositional information of these byproducts may provide manufacturers with the opportunity to optimize processing conditions.

Weber, Stefan published the artcileManganese-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Ketones under Mild and Base-free Conditions, Related Products of alcohols-buliding-blocks, the main research area is diphosphine alkyl manganese carbonyl catalyzed hydrogenation ketone mild base; alpha beta unsaturated carbonyl reduction diphosphine alkyl manganese carbonyl.

In this paper, several Mn(I) complexes were applied as catalysts for the homogeneous hydrogenation of ketones. The most active precatalyst is the bench-stable alkyl bisphosphine Mn(I) complex fac-[Mn(dippe)(CO)3(CH2CH2CH3)]. The reaction proceeds at room temperature under base-free conditions with a catalyst loading of 3 mol % and a hydrogen pressure of 10 bar. A temperature-dependent selectivity for the reduction of α,β-unsaturated carbonyls was observed At room temperature, the carbonyl group was selectively hydrogenated, while the C:C bond stayed intact. At 60°, fully saturated systems were obtained. A plausible mechanism based on DFT calculations which involves an inner-sphere hydride transfer is proposed.

Vanherwegen, An-Sofie published the artcileVitamin D controls the capacity of human dendritic cells to induce functional regulatory T cells by regulation of glucose metabolism, Formula: C4H6O5, the main research area is vitamin D human DCs T cell glucose metabolism regulation; 1α,25(OH)(2)D(3); Dendritic cells; Immunometabolism; PFKFB4; Regulatory T cells; Tolerogenicity.

Tolerogenic dendritic cells (tolDCs) instruct regulatory T cells (Tregs) to dampen autoimmunity. Active vitamin D3 (1a,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3; 1a,25(OH)2D3) imprints human monocyte-derived DCs with tolerogenic properties by reprogramming their glucose metabolism Here we identify the glycolytic enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 4 (PFKFB4) as a critical checkpoint and direct transcriptional target of 1a,25(OH)2D3 in determining the tolDC profile. Using tracer metabolomics, we show that PFKFB4 activity is essential for glucose metabolism, especially for glucose oxidation, which is elevated upon 1a,25(OH)2D3 exposure. Pharmacol. inhibition of PFKFB4 reversed the 1a,25(OH)2D3-mediated shift in metabolism, DC profile and function, as determined by expression of inhibitory surface markers and secretion of regulatory cytokines and factors. Moreover, PFKFB4 inhibition in 1a,25(OH)2D3-treated DCs blocked their hallmark capacity to induce suppressive Tregs. This work demonstrates that alterations in the bioenergetic metabolism of immune cells are central to the immunomodulatory effects induced by 1a,25(OH)2D3.
