Published in 2020 at "Organic Geochemistry"

DOI: 10.1016/j.orggeochem.2020.104080

Abstract: Abstract Freshwater wetlands harbour diverse archaeal communities and associated membrane lipid assemblages, but the effect of environmental factors (e.g. pH and temperature) on the distribution of these lipids is relatively poorly constrained. Here we explore… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Scientia Horticulturae"

DOI: 10.1016/j.scienta.2020.109505

Abstract: Abstract Carica papaya is a cold-sensitive horticultural crop, the mechanisms underlying its cold sensitivity remains unclear which limit its genetic improvements in cold tolerance. In this study, aqueous dextran-polyethylene glycol two-phase partition systems were applied… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Nature Communications"

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-54607-1

Abstract: The phosphoethanolamine transferase EptA utilizes phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) in the bacterial cell membrane to modify the structure of lipopolysaccharide, thereby conferring antimicrobial resistance on Gram-negative pathogens. Previous studies have indicated that excessive consumption of PE can… read more here.
