Biochemical characterisation of MdCXE1, a carboxylesterase from apple that is expressed during fruit ripening

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
The results suggest that MdCXE1 may have an impact on apple flavour through its ability to hydrolyse relevant flavour esters in ripe apple fruit.

Biochemistry of Apple Aroma: A Review.

TL;DR: The present manuscript compiles information regarding the biosynthesis of volatile aroma compounds, including metabolic pathways, enzymes and substrates involved, factors that may affect their production and also includes a wide number of studies focused on the addition of biosynthetic precursors in their production.

Completion of the canonical pathway for assembly of anticancer drugs vincristine/vinblastine in Catharanthus roseus.

TL;DR: Gene expression analyses demonstrate that both ASO and GS are highly enriched in the leaf epidermis where the pathways for catharanthine and tabersonine biosynthesis are expressed, enabling synthetic biology approaches for manufacturing a broad range of MIAs, including these dimers used in cancer treatment.

Acylsugar acylhydrolases: carboxylesterase catalyzed hydrolysis of acylsugars in tomato trichomes

TL;DR: Characterization of the in vitro activities of the SpASH enzymes showed reduced activities with acylsugars produced by LA0716, presumably contributing to the high-level production of acyl sugars in the presence of highly expressed SpASH genes.

Improved staining of proteins in polyacrylamide gels including isoelectric focusing gels with clear background at nanogram sensitivity using Coomassie Brilliant Blue G-250 and R-250.

TL;DR: An improved procedure for staining of proteins following separation in polyacrylamide gels is described which utilizes the colloidal properties of Coomassie Brilliant Blue G‐250 and R‐250 to combine the advantage of much shorter staining time with high sensitivity, a clear background not requiring destaining, stepwise staining, and stable fixation after staining.

The α/β hydrolase fold

TL;DR: The alpha/beta hydrolase fold as mentioned in this paper is common to several hydrolytic enzymes of widely differing phylogenetic origin and catalytic function, including the serine protease catalytic triad.

Bacterial lipolytic enzymes: classification and properties

TL;DR: An updated and extensive classification of bacterial esterases and lipases is proposed based mainly on a comparison of their amino acid sequences and some fundamental biological properties, which results in the identification of eight different families with the largest being further divided into six subfamilies.

GIBBERELLIN INSENSITIVE DWARF1 encodes a soluble receptor for gibberellin

TL;DR: The results indicate that GID1 is a soluble receptor mediating GA signalling in rice, a new GA-insensitive dwarf mutant of rice, that encodes an unknown protein with similarity to the hormone-sensitive lipases.
