Journal ArticleDOI

OrthoDB v10: sampling the diversity of animal, plant, fungal, protist, bacterial and viral genomes for evolutionary and functional annotations of orthologs.

TL;DR: This update features a major scaling up of the resource coverage, sampling the genomic diversity of 1271 eukaryotes, 6013 prokaryotes and 6488 viruses, and picking up the best sequenced and annotated representatives for each species or operational taxonomic unit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Insights into animal and plant lectins with antimicrobial activities.

TL;DR: This work focuses on structural-functional elucidation of diverse lectin groups, shedding some light on host-pathogen interactions; it also examines their emergence as biotechnological tools through gene manipulation and development of new drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cysteine-stabilized αβ defensins: From a common fold to antibacterial activity

TL;DR: The present work aims to group the data about CSαβ defensins, highlighting their evolution, conservation, structural characteristics, antibacterial activity and biotechnological perspectives.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phenolic Compounds in Antimicrobial Therapy.

TL;DR: Tannic acid and epigallocatechin gallate were the most active agents, presenting both antibacterial activity and β-lactamase and biofilm inhibition ability in both in vitro and in silico analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Defense-related proteins involved in sugarcane responses to biotic stress.

TL;DR: In this article, defense-related proteins in sugarcane are described, with their putative mechanisms of action, pathogen targets and biotechnological perspectives, and several of these proteins are induced by different pathogens or insects and have antifungal or insecticidal activity.
