To investigate the structure-dependent peptide mobility behavior in ion mobility spectrometry (IMS), quantitative structure-spectrum relationship (QSSR) is systematically modeled and predicted for the collision cross section Ω values of totally 162 s...
The transcriptional regulatory network (TRN) of Bacillus subtilis coordinates cellular functions of fundamental interest, including metabolism, biofilm formation, and sporulation. Here, we use unsupervised machine learning to modularize the transcrip...

In recent years, large-scale outbreaks of the green alga Enteromorpha prolifera in China's offshore waters have posed a serious threat. This study aimed to improve Enteromorpha polysaccharide (EP) enzymatic sugar production using the hydrolase system...
Glucose isomerase (GIase), an efficient enzyme in the isomerization of d-glucose to d-fructose, has been widely used in food processing. In this study, an efficient expression system for a Thermobifida fusca GIase (GIase) in Escherichia coli was firs...
