The Effect of In Vitro Digestion on Polyphenolic Compounds and Antioxidant Properties of Sorghum (<i>Sorghum bicolor</i> (L.) Moench) and Sorghum-Enriched Pasta

The phenol content of sorghum is a unique feature among all cereal grains; hence this fact merits the special attention of scientists. It should be remembered that before polyphenols can be used in the body, they are modified within the dig...

Monitoring of <i>Fusarium</i> Species and Trichothecene Genotypes Associated with <i>Fusarium</i> Head Blight on Wheat in Hebei Province, China

To clarify the changes in field populations of Fusarium head blight (FHB) pathogens over a decade, Fusarium species and trichothecene genotypes associated with FHB on wheat were monitored in Hebei province during the periods 2005&#8722;2006...

Prolyl Hydroxylase Paralogs in Nicotiana benthamiana Show High Similarity With Regard to Substrate Specificity

Plant glycoproteins display a characteristic type of O-glycosylation where short arabinans or larger arabinogalactans are linked to hydroxyproline. The conversion of proline to 4-hydroxyproline is accomplished by prolyl-hydroxylases (P4Hs)....

Amino Acid Racemase Enzyme Assays

Amino acid racemases are enzymes that invert the α-carbon stereochemistry of amino acids (AAs), interconverting amino acids between their L- and D-enantiomers in a reversible reaction. In bacteria, they are known to have catabolic physiolog...
