In silico identification of miRNAs and their target genes and analysis of gene co-expression network in saffron (Crocus sativus L.) stigma
As an aromatic and colorful plant of substantive taste, saffron (Crocus sativus L.) owes such properties of matter to growing class of the secondary metabolites derived from the carotenoids, apocarotenoids. Regarding the critical role of microRNAs in secondary metabolic synthesis and the limited number of identified miRNAs in C. sativus, on the other hand, one may see the point how the characte...
متن کاملA MATHEMATICAL MODEL TO DESCRIBE THE SYNERGISTIC EFFECT BETWEEN SULFAMETHOXAZOLE AND TRIMETHOPRIM
b a s e don folic acid biosynthetic pathway a mathematical model was made for bacterial growth to describe the synergistic effect between sulfamethoxazole and trimethoprim. The results obtained show a strong synergism at growth inhibiting concentrations of these two drugs. Two cyclic pathways included in the model are responsible for this synergism. The roles of these pathways in producing ...
متن کاملReconstitution and Minimization of a Micrococcin Biosynthetic Pathway in Bacillus subtilis.
UNLABELLED Thiopeptides represent one of several families of highly modified peptide antibiotics that hold great promise for natural product engineering. These macrocyclic peptides are produced by a combination of ribosomal synthesis and extensive posttranslational modification by dedicated processing enzymes. We previously identified a compact, plasmid-borne gene cluster for the biosynthesis o...
متن کاملIntroducing ectoine as compatible solute: biosynthetic pathway, production and applications
Halophilic microorganisms cope with environmental stresses by producing and accumulating compatible solutes. Ectoine is one of the most important members of compatible solutes which have extra protective properties compared to other compatible solutes. Ectoine attracts several scientific and commercial attention because of their multiple industrial applications. This brief review presents appli...
متن کاملThree-dimensional structures of enzymes useful for beta-lactam antibiotic production.
Significant advances have been made in the structure-based engineering of enzymes useful for beta-lactam antibiotic production. Structure-based engineering of penicillin G acylase and cephalosporin acylase has resulted in improved enzymes for use in enzymatic production processes. The structures of many other enzymes that could be used in the production of beta-lactam antibiotics, such as enzym...
