Glycoside Hydrolases from a targeted Compost Metagenome, activity-screening and functional characterization
BACKGROUND Metagenomics approaches provide access to environmental genetic diversity for biotechnology applications, enabling the discovery of new enzymes and pathways for numerous catalytic processes. Discovery of new glycoside hydrolases with improved biocatalytic properties for the efficient conversion of lignocellulosic material to biofuels is a critical challenge in the development of econ...
متن کاملIn Vitro Culture and Characterization of a Mammary Epithelial Cell Line from Chinese Holstein Dairy Cow
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to establish a culture system and elucidate the unique characteristics of a bovine mammary epithelial cell line in vitro. METHODOLOGY Mammary tissue from a three year old lactating dairy cow (ca. 100 d relative to parturition) was used as a source of the epithelial cell line, which was cultured in collagen-coated tissue culture dishes. Fibroblasts an...
متن کاملSynthesis of novel bioactive lactose-derived oligosaccharides by microbial glycoside hydrolases
Prebiotic oligosaccharides are increasingly demanded within the Food Science domain because of the interesting healthy properties that these compounds may induce to the organism, thanks to their beneficial intestinal microbiota growth promotion ability. In this regard, the development of new efficient, convenient and affordable methods to obtain this class of compounds might expand even further...
متن کاملUpdate on Rumen-protected Choline in Dairy Cow Nutrition
Choline is a quasi-vitamin that has a variety of functions in mammalian metabolism. Its major functions are as the predominant phospholipid contained in the membranes of all cells in the body (as phosphatidylcholine), a component of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, and as a direct precursor to betaine in methyl metabolism. It is beyond the scope of this paper to review these functions in dep...
متن کاملA novel histone deacetylase inhibitor identified by high-throughput transcriptional screening of a compound library.
Libraries of compounds are increasingly becoming commercially available for the use of individual academic laboratories. A high-throughput system based on a stably integrated transcriptional reporter was used to screen a library of random compounds to identify agents that conferred robust augmentation of a signal transduction pathway. A novel histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, termed scripta...
