Biosynthesis and Function of Extracellular Glycans in Cyanobacteria
The cell surface of cyanobacteria is covered with glycans that confer versatility and adaptability to a multitude of environmental factors. The complex carbohydrates act as barriers against different types of stress and play a role in intra- as well as inter-species interactions. In this review, we summarize the current knowledge of the chemical composition, biosynthesis and biological function...
متن کاملinterpersonal function of language in subtitling
translation as a comunicative process is always said to be associated with various aspects of meaning loss or gain. subtitling as a mode of translating, due to special discoursal and textual conditions imposed upon it, is believed to be an obvious case of this loss or gain. presenting the spoken sound track of a film in writing and synchronizing the perception of this text by the viewers with...
15 صفحه اولTerpenoids and Their Biosynthesis in Cyanobacteria
Terpenoids, or isoprenoids, are a family of compounds with great structural diversity which are essential for all living organisms. In cyanobacteria, they are synthesized from the methylerythritol-phosphate (MEP) pathway, using glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and pyruvate produced by photosynthesis as substrates. The products of the MEP pathway are the isomeric five-carbon compounds isopentenyl diph...
متن کاملComparative genomics of NAD biosynthesis in cyanobacteria.
Biosynthesis of NAD(P) cofactors is of special importance for cyanobacteria due to their role in photosynthesis and respiration. Despite significant progress in understanding NAD(P) biosynthetic machinery in some model organisms, relatively little is known about its implementation in cyanobacteria. We addressed this problem by a combination of comparative genome analysis with verification exper...

Secreted mucins and cell-surface mucin-type common 0-glycan core structures can be syntheglycoproteins are rich in 0-glycans and are often sized (Figure 1). Core 1 is the precursor strucresponsible for the expression of biologically ture for the synthesis of core 2, and core 3 is the important ligands and cancer-associated epiprecursor for core 4 [2]. All four common core topes. These epitopes ...
