A computational workflow for the expansion of heterologous biosynthetic pathways to natural product derivatives
Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Jasmin Maria Hafner
Plant natural products (PNPs) and their derivatives are important but underexplored sources of pharmaceutical molecules. To access this untapped potential, the reconstitution of heterologous PNP biosynthesis pathways in engineered microbes provides a valua ...
NATURE RESEARCH2021Amoebocytes facilitate efficient carbon and nitrogen assimilation in the Cassiopea -Symbiodiniaceae symbiosis
Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Nils Rädecker, Louise Helene Soegaard Jensen, Niclas Heidelberg Lyndby, Sandrine Denise Françoise Bessette, Michael Kühl
The upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea engages in symbiosis with photosynthetic microalgae that facilitate uptake and recycling of inorganic nutrients. By con- trast to most other symbiotic cnidarians, algal endosymbionts in Cassiopea are not restricted to th ...
2020Mechanism(s) of electron transfer and metabolic changes during iron reduction by Clostridium acetobutylicum
Microorganisms catalyze many of the redox transformations driving the iron cycle in the geosphere. For instance, iron cycling includes the reduction of solid-phase and soluble ferric iron (Fe(III)) to ferrous iron (Fe(II)). However, in order to reduce soli ...
EPFL2019Dual action of L-Lactate on the activity of NR2B-containing NMDA receptors: from potentiation to neuroprotection
Pierre Magistretti, Igor Allaman, Pierre Marquet, Pascal Jourdain, Kaspar Rothenfusser
L-Lactate is a positive modulator of NMDAR-mediated signaling resulting in plasticity gene induction and memory consolidation. However, L-Lactate is also able to protect neurons against excito-toxic NMDAR activity, an indication of a mitigating action of L ...
