Starch synthesis in ostreococcus tauri: The starch-binding domains of starch synthase III-B are essential for catalytic activity
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2018-10)
Starch is the major energy storage carbohydrate in photosynthetic eukaryotes. Several enzymes are involved in building highly organized semi-crystalline starch granules, including starch-synthase III (SSIII), which is ...
Inhibitory activity against α-amylase and α-glucosidase by phenolic compounds of quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) and cañihua (Chenopodium pallidicaule Aellen) from the Andean region of Peru
(EManuscript Technologies, 2021)
Background: Chenopodium quinoa Willd. and Chenopodium pallidicaule Aellen are grains from the Andean region of Peru, which in addition to having a high nutritional value, have health-promoting properties related to the ...
Nutritional and Bioactive Properties of an Amazon Wild Oyster Culinary-Medicinal Mushroom, Pleurotus ostreatus (Agaricomycetes): Contributions to Functional Food and Human Health
(Begell House, 2021-06)
A wild Amazonian strain of Pleurotus ostreatus (Jacq.: Fr.) P. Kumm. was cultivated using local agroindustrial wastes?açaí seeds (AS) and elephant grass straw (EGS)?as substrates and evaluated for its nutritional composition ...
Inhibition of β-carbonic anhydrases from Brucella suis with C-cinnamoyl glycosides incorporating the phenol moiety
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2015-11)
A small series of C-glycosides containing the phenol moiety was tested for the inhibition of the β-class carbonic anhydrases (βCAs, EC 4.2.1.1) from Brucella suis. Many compounds showed activities in the micromolar or ...
C-glycosides incorporating the 6-methoxy-2-naphthyl moiety are selective inhibitors of fungal and bacterial carbonic anhydrases
(Taylor & Francis, 2015-09)
A small series of C-glycosides containing the methoxyaryl moieties was tested for the inhibition of the β-class carbonic anhydrases (CAs, EC 4.2.1.1) from Cryptococcus neoformans and Brucella suis. Many compounds showed ...
On the stability of nucleoside diphosphate glucose metabolites: Implications for studies of plant carbohydrate metabolism
(Oxford University Press, 2017-05)
Nucleoside diphosphate sugars (NDP-sugars) are the substrates for biosynthesis of oligo-and polysaccharides, such as starch and cellulose, and are also required for biosynthesis of nucleotides, ascorbic acid, several ...
Phosphorylation of ADP-Glucose Pyrophosphorylase During Wheat Seeds Development
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-07)
Starch is the dominant reserve polysaccharide accumulated in the seed of grasses (like wheat). It is the most common carbohydrate in the human diet and a material applied to the bioplastics and biofuels industry. Hence, ...
Adaptation of intestinal epithelial hydrolysis and absorption of dietary carbohydrate and protein in mammals and birds
(Elsevier Science Inc., 2021-03)
The small intestine of mammals and birds exhibits fascinating variation across taxa, body size, and life history features such as locomotion and diet. In the intestine's brush border membrane (BBM), hydrolases are more ...
Phenotypic flexibility in juvenile flounder Paralichthys orbignyanus (Valenciennes, 1839): differential modulation of digestive enzymes and energy reserves in relation to dietFlexibilidad fenotípica en juveniles del lenguado Paralichthys orbignyanus (Valenciennes, 1839): modulación diferencial de enzimas digestivas y reservas de energía en relación a la dieta
(PanamJAS, 2021-03)
El lenguado Paralichthys orbignyanus es un pez plano de gran importancia ecológica y económica que habita principalmente en estuarios y aguas costeras del Atlántico sudoccidental. Faltan estudios integrativos sobre modulación ...
