  Concerning firmness, postharvest calcium dips for whole fruit have been demonstrated to preserve firmness, cell wall structure (Glenn and Poovaiah, 1990), nutritional quality (Goldberg, 1984) and fruit flavour (Ortiz et al., 2009). Similarly, combinations of calcium treatment (0.5–4%) with packaging

  Citrus [29], comprising some of the most widely cultivated fruit crops worldwide, has been consumed as a food and dietary supplement. According to traditional Chinese medicine, dry pericarp of Citrus, as a Chinese herbal remedy, is capable of regulating Qi and expelling phlegm, and has been used to

  Introduction Progesterone, also known as P4, is a steroid hormone acting as a key component in the complex regulation of female reproductive function. P4 plays major physiological roles in the uterus and ovary by releasing mature oocytes helping in implantation and maintenance of pregnancy, as well

  Halogenases Enzymatic C–H activation leading to halogenation is another emerging area in biocatalysis [55,56]. Incorporation of halogen atoms during medicinal chemistry eff ;orts is a well-established practice, presenting an effective means to control the molecule’s bioactivity and physicochemical

  Kinetic isotope effects (KIEs) inform on bond vibrational changes between the ground state (GS) and TS of a chemical reaction and remain one of the most powerful experimental techniques for interrogating TS structure. KIEs on enzyme reactions measured by the internal BMS-354825 receptor of labeled s

  Conclusions We can conclude that Arg293 is important but not indispensable for MeGlcA recognition by EcXyn30A since the R293A variant still retains activity and preference for MeGlcA-substituted substrates. The substrate specificity of GH30_8 glucuronoxylanases is most probably determined by an o

  Results Discussion Our UbV library was originally designed to develop inhibitors of deubiquitinases (Ernst et al., 2013). Recently, we showed that UbVs could exhibit multiple binding modes and mechanisms to modulate HECT E3 activity (Zhang et al., 2016)—one set occupied the HECT domain E2-bind

  The E1 enzyme is the apex for downstream enzymatic cascades and signaling pathways mediated by Ub and Ub-like proteins (Ubls) (Pickart, 2001). Studying characteristics of E1 and its catalytic functions may throw light to the role of ubiquitination in cell development. All known eukaryotic E1 are mon

  Materials and methods Results Discussion DNA-PKcs and the Ku heterodimer (Ku70 and Ku80) constitute the DNA-PK complex, which is a serine/threonine kinase. DNA-PK phosphorylates H2AX and other substrates, such as main NHEJ factors (Artemis, XRCC4, and DNA ligase IV) [4]. Therefore, DNA-PK d

  Moreover, maintaining the pyrimidine pool is not the only important role played by DHODHs. In Toxoplasma gondii, for instance, DHODH plays a second essential function [38] possibly coupled to the mitochondrial respiratory activity, where it replenishes ubiquinol levels and prevents reactive oxygen s

  We have performed our MSP analyses as real-time PCR using SybrGreen (Fig. 2). The results of the beta-actin PCR vary in each sample group because the amount of DNA for bisulfite treatment was adjusted to a constant volume of serum (500μl) rather than to equal amounts of DNA. Because we expected lowe

  To date, little is known about the regulation of PCD through phytocystatin inhibitory activity. Inhibitors that may regulate leaf senescence (Huang et al., 2001, Tajima et al., 2011) or may inhibit PCD induced by abiotic factors, such as mechanical tissue damage or oxidative stress caused by cold (B
