The arabidopsis wall associated kinase-like 10 gene encodes a functional guanylyl cyclase and is coexpressed with pathogen defense related genes
(Public Library of Science, 2010)
Second messengers have a key role in linking environmental stimuli to physiological responses. One such messenger, guanosine 3′,5′-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP), has long been known to be an essential signaling molecule in ...
Design and synthesis of acyldepsipeptide-1 analogues: antibacterial activity and cytotoxicity screening
(Arabian Journal of Chemistry, 2023)
Acyldepsipeptides (ADEPs) are receiving more attention as prospective antimicrobial agents due to their unique mode of action and chemical properties. However, their therapeutic potential is limited by their poor pharmacokinetic ...
Seed germination and seedling establishment in pistacia atlantica desf. and pistacia lentiscus l. under drought
(Russian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2023)
The rehabilitation of degraded Mediterranean areas requires reintroduction of key-stone woody species. However, seed germination and seedling establishment for native species are poor. Germination behavior of Pistacia ...
Enhanced anti-bacterial activity of biogenic silver nanoparticles synthesized from terminalia mantaly extracts
(Dove Press, 2019)
The global increase in outbreaks and mortality rates associated with multidrug-
resistant (MDR) bacteria is a major health concern and calls for alternative treatments.
Natural-derived products have shown potential in ...
Identification and characterization of a heat-inducible Hsp70 gene from Sorghum bicolor which confers tolerance to thermal stress
(Springer, 2015)
This study describes the first detailed molecular
characterization of the heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) gene
from Sorghum bicolor, MN1618 designated as SbHsp70-1.
The full-length cDNA of SbHsp70-1 consists of 2524 bp ...
Unique aliphatic amidase from a psychrotrophic and haloalkaliphilic nesterenkonia isolate
(American Society for Microbiology, 2011)
Nesterenkonia strain AN1 was isolated from a screening program for nitrile- and amide-hydrolyzing microorganisms in Antarctic desert soil samples. Strain AN1 showed significant 16S rRNA sequence identity to known members ...
Microbiome enrichment from contaminated marine sediments unveils novel bacterial strains for petroleum hydrocarbon and heavy metal bioremediation
(Elsevier, 2023)
Petroleum hydrocarbons and heavy metals are some of the most widespread contaminants affecting marine
ecosystems, urgently needing effective and sustainable remediation solutions. Microbial-based bioremediation is
gaining ...
Whole-genome sequencing of African swine fever virus from wild boars in the Kaliningrad region reveals unique and distinguishing genomic mutations
(Frontiers Media, 2023)
Since the first report of outbreaks of African swine fever (ASF)
in Georgia in 2007, the disease has expanded into Europe, Russia, and Asia,
spreading rapidly via contact with infected animals including domestic pigs
and ...
Increasing extracellular cellulase activity of the recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae by engineering cell wall-related proteins for improved consolidated processing of carbon neutral lignocellulosic biomass
(Elsevier, 2022)
Sustainable bioproduction using carbon neutral feedstocks, especially lignocellulosic biomass, has attracted
increasing attention due to concern over climate change and carbon reduction. Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP)
of ...
Analysis of the differentially expressed proteins and metabolic pathways of honeybush (cyclopia subternata) in response to water deficit stress
(MDPI, 2023)
Honeybush (Cyclopia spp.) is a rich source of antioxidant properties and phenolic compounds. Water availability plays a crucial role in plant metabolic processes, and it contributes to overall quality. Thus, this study ...
