Synthesis of lipid-linked precursors of the bacterial cell wall is governed by a feedback control mechanism in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Many bacterial surface glycans such as the peptidoglycan (PG) cell wall are built from monomeric units linked to a polyprenyl lipid carrier. How this...

Nano-silicon mediated alleviation of Cd toxicity by cell wall adsorption and antioxidant defense system in rice seedlings
PurposeHeavy metal, particularly cadmium (Cd) is toxic to rice growth. Studies showed that nano-silicon particles (SiNPs) can alleviate Cd toxicity....

Combined Single-Cell RNA and Single-Cell α/β T Cell Receptor Sequencing of the Arterial Wall in Atherosclerosis
Although various pro- and anti-inflammatory T cell subsets have been observed in murine and human atherosclerosis, principal issues of T cell... -
In vitro studies of the protein-interaction network of cell-wall lytic transglycosylase RlpA of Pseudomonas aeruginosa
The protein networks of cell-wall-biosynthesis assemblies are largely unknown. A key class of enzymes in these assemblies is the lytic...

Cell Fractionation
Protein function is generally dependent on its subcellular localization. In gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli, a protein can be... -
Detoxification of aluminum by Ca and Si is associated to modified root cell wall properties
Aluminum (Al) is an obstacle to crop production in acidic soils globally. Cations such as Ca and Si are capable of detoxifying toxic metals,...

Biomass Digestion for Production of Electrical Energy
Currently, energy security and environmental protection are two of the major concerns the world is facing. Electricity generation, being one of the... -
Review on research achievements of blackwater anaerobic digestion for enhanced resource recovery
Blackwater (source-separated toilet wastewater) is highly concentrated in both organic carbon and nutrients. A consensus prevails that blackwater is...
