Phytase activity as a novel metabolic feature in Bifidobacterium.
Phytase activity has been detected for the first time in Bifidobacterium spp. These bacteria were able to dephosphorylate phytic acid (myo-inositol hexaphosphate, IP(6)) and generate several myo-inositol phosphate intermediates (IP(3)-IP(5)). B. globosum and B. pseudocatenulatum were optimally active at neutral-alkaline pH and B. adolescentis, B. angulatum and B. longum at acid pH. B. pseudocat...
متن کاملIndustry as a metabolic activity.
The concept of "industrial economic metabolism" can provide a bridge to better understanding between environmentalists and industry. In nature each individual or species reacts to natural stimuli, competing with others for resources, extending its domain until it loses comparative advantage and comes to equilibrium with an adjacent competitor. Those species that succeed over time flourish; thos...
متن کاملPhytase activity in lichens
Phytase activity was investigated in 13 lichen species using a novel assay method. The work tested the hypothesis that phytase is a component of the suite of surface-bound lichen enzymes that hydrolyse simple organic forms of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) deposited onto the thallus surface. Hydrolysis of inositol hexaphosphate (InsP6 , the substrate for phytase) and appearance of lower-order ...
متن کاملLow urine pH: a novel feature of the metabolic syndrome.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The metabolic syndrome is associated with alterations in renal function. An overly acidic urine has been described as a renal manifestation of the metabolic syndrome in patients with kidney stone disease. This study examined the association between the metabolic syndrome and urine pH in individuals without a history of nephrolithiasis. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, ...
متن کاملMetabolic modulation as a novel cancer treatment
The Warburg effect refers to the cancer’s metabolic shift from mitochondrial oxidation to anaerobic glycolysis, even when oxygen is present. Although this metabolic anomaly was long believed to be due to irreversible mitochondrial damage, it now appears mitochondria in cancer are actively suppressed. Since mitochondria are extensively integrated into the metabolic, signaling and apoptotic biolo...
