The use of marine-derived fungi for preparation of enantiomerically pure alcohols.

Applied microbiology and biotechnology
A highly enantioselective and minimally polluting approach to optically pure chiral alcohols is developed using cheap, readily available and sustainable marine-derived fungi as catalysts. An evaluation of the synthetic potential of 13 Chinese marine ...

Catalytic Properties of Amylolytic Enzymes Produced by Using Agroindustrial Residues on Solid-State Fermentation.

BioMed research international
Amylases catalyze the hydrolysis of starch, a vegetable polysaccharide abundant in nature. These enzymes can be utilized in the production of syrups, alcohol, detergent, pharmaceutical products, and animal feed formulations. The aim of this study was...

Ultrasound-assisted extraction of antimicrobial compounds from Thymus daenensis and Silybum marianum: Antimicrobial activity with and without the presence of natural silver nanoparticles.

Ultrasonics sonochemistry
The present study is devoted to prepare a new antibacterial and antifungal agent based on in situ-synthesized silver nanoparticles at room temperature using Rosmarinus officinalis (R. officinalis) leaf extract. The Ag-NPs characterization by UV-visib...

Advantages of Synthetic Noise and Machine Learning for Analyzing Radioecological Data Sets.

PloS one
The ecological effects of accidental or malicious radioactive contamination are insufficiently understood because of the hazards and difficulties associated with conducting studies in radioactively-polluted areas. Data sets from severely contaminated...

Tricalcium phosphate solubilization and nitrogen fixation by newly isolated Aneurinibacillus aneurinilyticus CKMV1 from rhizosphere of Valeriana jatamansi and its growth promotional effect.

Brazilian journal of microbiology : [publication of the Brazilian Society for Microbiology]
Aneurinibacillus aneurinilyticus strain CKMV1 was isolated from rhizosphere of Valeriana jatamansi and possessed multiple plant growth promoting traits like production of phosphate solubilization (260mg/L), nitrogen fixation (202.91nmolethylenemLh), ...

Mycofier: a new machine learning-based classifier for fungal ITS sequences.

BMC research notes
BACKGROUND: The taxonomic and phylogenetic classification based on sequence analysis of the ITS1 genomic region has become a crucial component of fungal ecology and diversity studies. Nowadays, there is no accurate alignment-free classification tool ...

g:Profiler-a web server for functional interpretation of gene lists (2016 update).

Nucleic acids research
Functional enrichment analysis is a key step in interpreting gene lists discovered in diverse high-throughput experiments. g:Profiler studies flat and ranked gene lists and finds statistically significant Gene Ontology terms, pathways and other gene ...

IAS: Interaction Specific GO Term Associations for Predicting Protein-Protein Interaction Networks.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Proteins carry out their function in a cell through interactions with other proteins. A large scale protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of an organism provides static yet an essential structure of interactions, which is valuable clue for unders...

Design, synthesis and antimicrobial activity of 6-N-substituted chitosan derivatives.

Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry letters
Three novel 6-N-substituted chitosan derivatives were designed and synthesised and characterized by FTIR and NMR. The degree of substitution was calculated by elemental analysis results. The antimicrobial activities of the target compounds were evalu...

Construction of an ortholog database using the semantic web technology for integrative analysis of genomic data.

PloS one
Recently, various types of biological data, including genomic sequences, have been rapidly accumulating. To discover biological knowledge from such growing heterogeneous data, a flexible framework for data integration is necessary. Ortholog informati...
