Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of pH and temperature on protein unfolding and thiol/disulfide interchange reactions during heat-induced gelation of whey proteins
TL;DR: In this paper, heat-induced whey protein isolate (WPI) gels, polymerization of the constituent whey proteins via intermolecular disulfide (S-S) bonding, was dependent on both the pH of the WPI solution and the temperature to which the solution was heated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glycoprofiling of bifidobacterial consumption of human milk oligosaccharides demonstrates strain specific, preferential consumption of small chain glycans secreted in early human lactation.
Riccardo G. LoCascio,Milady R. Niñonuevo,Samara L. Freeman,David A. Sela,Rudolf Grimm,Carlito B. Lebrilla,David A. Mills,J. Bruce German +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that these small mass HMOs are selectively metabolized by select bifidobacterial strains and represent a potential new class of bioactive molecules functioning as prebiotics to facilitate a protective gut colonization in breast-fed newborns.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breast Milk Oligosaccharides: Structure-Function Relationships in the Neonate
TL;DR: The state of technology for glycan analysis and how specific structure-function knowledge is enhancing the authors' understanding of early nutrition in the neonate are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolomics: building on a century of biochemistry to guide human health.
TL;DR: The use of metabolomic data to predict the health trajectories of individuals will require bioinformatic tools and quantitative reference databases, and databases containing metabolite profiles from the population must be built, stored and indexed according to metabolic and health status.
Journal ArticleDOI
Maternal fucosyltransferase 2 status affects the gut bifidobacterial communities of breastfed infants
Zachery T. Lewis,Sarah M. Totten,Jennifer T. Smilowitz,Mina Popovic,Evan A. Parker,Danielle G. Lemay,Maxwell L. Van Tassell,Michael J. Miller,Yong Su Jin,J. Bruce German,Carlito B. Lebrilla,David A. Mills +11 more
TL;DR: Mechanistic insight is provided into how milk glycans enrich specific beneficial bacterial populations in infants and clues for enhancing enrichment of bifidobacterial populations in at risk populations - such as premature infants are revealed.
