Journal ArticleDOI

The complete genome sequence of Chromobacterium violaceum reveals remarkable and exploitable bacterial adaptability

Ana Tereza Ribeiro de Vasconcelos, +97 more
TL;DR: The complete genome sequence reveals extensive alternative pathways for energy generation, complex and extensive systems for stress adaptation and motility, and widespread utilization of quorum sensing for control of inducible systems, all of which underpin the versatility and adaptability of the organism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Compositional and nutritional attributes of seeds from the multiple purpose tree Moringa oleifera Lamarck

TL;DR: The results indicated that consumption of M oleifera raw mature seeds should be viewed with some caution until suitable processing methods are developed to abolish the yet unknown adverse factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Revisiting proteus: do minor changes in lectin structure matter in biological activity? Lessons from and potential biotechnological uses of the Diocleinae subtribe lectins

TL;DR: The present review of the biological actions of Diocleinae lectins includes several in vitro and in vivo immunological findings, as well as their effects on insect growth and reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI

The crystal structure of Canavalia brasiliensis lectin suggests a correlation between its quaternary conformation and its distinct biological properties from Concanavalin A.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the use of nanofiltration membranes for the recovery of phosphorous with a second type of technology is to be considered as a viable process for recovery of nitrogen in the short term.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anti-inflammatory effect of glucose—mannose binding lectins isolated from Brazilian beans

TL;DR: It is speculated that the plant lectin antiinflammatory activity is probably due to a competitive blockage of a common leukocyte and/or endothelial selectin carbohydrate ligand.
