A Novel beta-Glucosidase from Sporidiobolus pararoseus: Characterization and Application in Winemaking
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-09-01)
For the first time, the production of an extracellular beta-glucosidase (Sp-beta-gl) by a Sporidiobolus pararoseus yeast strain is reported. The Sp-beta-gl activity was quantified, characterized, and assessed for its ...
N-glycan trimming by glucosidase II is essential for Arabidopsis development
(Springer, 2008-10)
Glucosidase II, one of the early N-glycan processing enzymes and a major player in the glycoprotein folding quality control, has been described as a soluble heterodimer composed of alpha and beta subunits. Here we present ...
Alpha-glucosidase promotes hemozoin formation in a blood-sucking bug: An evolutionary history
(2009-09-09)
Background: Hematophagous insects digest large amounts of host hemoglobin and release heme inside their guts. In Rhodnius prolixus, hemoglobin-derived heme is detoxified by biomineralization, forming hemozoin (Hz). Recently, ...

Evaluation of Indigenous Grains from the Peruvian Andean Region for Antidiabetes and Antihypertension Potential Using In Vitro Methods
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2009)
The health-relevant functionality of 10 thermally processed Peruvian Andean grains (five cereals, three pseudocereals, and two legumes) was evaluated for potential type 2 diabetes-relevant antihyperglycemia and antihypertension ...
Evaluation of Antiproliferative, Anti-Type 2 Diabetes, and Antihypertension Potentials of Ellagitannins from Strawberries (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) Using In Vitro Models
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2010)
Strawberries represent the main source of ellagic acid derivatives in the Brazilian diet, corresponding to more than 50% of all phenolic compounds found in the fruit. There is a particular interest in the determination of ...
Functionality of bioactive compounds in Brazilian strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) cultivars: Evaluation of hyperglycemia and hypertension potential using in vitro models
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2008)
Fruits of seven fully ripened strawberry cultivars grown in Brazil (Dover, Camp Dover, Camarosa, Sweet Charlie, Toyonoka, Oso Grande, and Piedade) were evaluated for total phenolics, antioxidant activity based on DPPH ...
Evaluation of Antihyperglycemia and Antihypertension Potential of Native Peruvian Fruits Using In Vitro Models
(MARY ANN LIEBERT INC, 2009)
Local food diversity and traditional crops are essential for cost-effective management of the global epidemic of type 2 diabetes and associated complications of hypertension. Water and 12% ethanol extracts of native Peruvian ...
