Informatīvā paneļa "InfoDesk" lietotnes paplašinājumu un paplašinājuma pārvaldnieka izstrāde
2015
Darbā tika izstrādāts paplašinājumu pārvaldnieks lietojumprogrammatūrai InfoDesk un paplašinājumi DocReader un Confluence Wiki, kas ir bāzēti uz mobilās operētājsistēmas Android. Paplašinājumu ietvars izstrādāts, lai atļautu izveidot atsevišķas lietotnes, kas savienojas ar galveno lietojumprogrammatūru, izmantojot operētājsistēmas iebūvēto signālu starp-lietotņu sazināšanās interfeisu Intent. Paplašinājums DocReader atļauj izveidot skata objektu galvenajai lietojumprogrammatūrai, kas nolasa saturu pieejamiem HTML failiem uz Android ierīces, bet paplašinājums Confluence Wiki atļauj pieslēgties un parādīt HTML saturu no tīmekļa lapām, kuras izmanto Atlassian Confluence tīmekļu tehnoloģiju.
Anion Recognition by a Bioactive Diureidodecalin Anionophore: Solid-State, Solution, and Computational Studies
2018
Recent work has identified a bis-(p-nitrophenyl)ureidodecalin anion carrier as a promising candidate for biomedical applications, showing good activity for chloride transport in cells yet almost no cytotoxicity. To underpin further development of this and related compounds, a detailed structural and binding investigation is reported. Crystal structures of the transporter as five solvates confirm the diaxial positioning of urea groups while revealing a degree of conformational flexibility. Structures of complexes with Cl−, Br−, NO3 −, SO4 2− and AcO−, supported by computational studies, show how the binding site can adapt to accommodate these anions. 1H NMR binding studies revealed exception…
Glycoprotein molecules in the walls of Schizosaccharomyces pombe wild-type cells and a morphologically altered mutant resistant to papulacandin B
1990
SUMMARY: Schizosaccharomyces pombe cell walls contain two major glycoprotein species, I and II, with molecular masses of 2 x 106 and 5 x 105 Da respectively, as determined by gel filtration chromatography and PAGE. The ratio of sugar to protein is higher in species I than in species II. Much of the sugar in both glycoproteins (about 85% in wild-type cells) is O-linked to the peptide moiety. The morphological sph1 mutant is resistant to papulacandin B, and its cell wall contains less glycoprotein II (but not less glycoprotein I) than the parental wild-type strain, although glycoprotein II is still synthesized and released into the growth medium. Papulacandin B largely reverses the morphologi…
Isolation and characterization of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants resistant to aculeacin A
1991
Aculeacin A is a lipopeptide that inhibits beta-glucan synthesis in yeasts. A number of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mutants resistant to this antibiotic were isolated, and four loci (ACR1, ACR2, ACR3, and ACR4) whose products are involved in the sensitivity to aculeacin A of yeast cells were defined. Mutants containing mutations in the four loci were also resistant to echinocandin B, another member of this lipopeptide family of antibiotics. In contrast, acr1, acr3, and acr4 mutants were resistant to papulacandin B (an antibiotic containing a disaccharide linked to two fatty acid chains that also inhibits beta-glucan synthesis), but acr2 mutants were susceptible to this antibiotic. This result …
Formation of a new cell wall by protoplasts of Candida albicans: effect of papulacandin B, tunicamycin and Nikkomycin.
1987
SUMMARY: Incorporation of polysaccharides into the walls of regenerating protoplasts of Candida albicans was followed in the presence of papulacandin B, tunicamycin and nikkomycin. With the first drug, chitin was incorporated normally whereas incorporation of glucans and mannoproteins was significantly decreased. Tunicamycin decreased incorporation of all wall polymers when added at the beginning of the regeneration process but blocked only mannan and alkali-insoluble glucan incorporation when added after 5 h. Nikkomycin inhibited chitin synthesis, and the walls formed by the protoplasts were enriched in alkali-soluble glucan. Pulse-chase experiments suggested that a precursor-product relat…
A kinetic study on the regeneration ofCandida albicansprotoplasts in the presence of cell wall synthesis inhibitors
1993
Aculeacin A and papulacandin B block cell wall regeneration in Candida albicans protoplasts at an intermediate step in which the protoplasts have not yet synthesized the rigid structure of the cell wall and are therefore still osmotically sensitive. In the presence of the antibiotics, total synthesis of glucan is not significantly lowered with respect to control cells, although most of it appears either in the culture medium or in the regenerating wall as alkali-soluble glucan. Thus, it is proposed that echinocandins (such as aculeacin A) and papulacandins may not inhibit glucan synthesis per se but instead inhibit its incorporation into the supramolecular organization of the cell wall.
Valorization of Wastewater from Table Olives: NMR Identification of Antioxidant Phenolic Fraction and Microwave Single-Phase Reaction of Sugary Fract…
2021
The table olive industry is producing a huge amount of wastewater, which is a post-processing cost and an environmental concern. The present study aims to valorize this processing by-product to obtain a value-added product, thereby enhancing resource efficiency and contributing to achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs). In this sense, a chemical reaction-based platform was developed to obtain valuable components, such as levulinic acid (LA) and 5-hydromethylfurfural (HMF). The products were then analyzed using NMR identification of the antioxidant phenolic fraction and microwave single-phase reaction of the sugary fraction. According to the results, the highest concentration of phen…
Effect of high levels of CO 2 on the electrochemical behavior and the enzymatic and non‐enzymatic antioxidant systems in black and white table grapes…
2019
[Bakghround]: In this study, we analyzed the effect of the application of high levels of CO2 (20 kPa CO2 + 20 kPa O2 + 60 kPa N2 ) for 3 days at low temperature on a white table-grape cultivar (Superior Seedless) in comparison with a black one (cv. Autumn Royal) in terms of quality parameters. We also used a solid-state voltammetry methodology to analyze the effect of the 3-day gaseous treatment in berry tissues from both cultivars in the first stage of storage. We determined the role of the non-enzymatic (total phenols, total anthocyanins, and antioxidant activity) and the enzymatic antioxidant (catalase (GCAT), ascorbate peroxidase (VcAPX) gene expression) systems in the behaviors of bo…
A tolerant behavior in salt-sensitive tomato plants can be mimicked by chemical stimuli
2007
Lycopersicon esculentum plants exhibit increased salt stress tolerance following treat‑ ment with adipic acid monoethylester and 1,3‑diaminepropane (DAAME), known as an inducer of resistance against biotic stress in tomato and pepper. For an efficient water and nutrient uptake, plants should adapt their water potential to compensate a decrease in water soil potential produced by salt stress. DAAME‑treated plants showed a faster and stronger water potential reduction and an enhanced proline accumulation. Salinity‑induced oxidative stress was also ameliorated by DAAME treatments. Oxidative membrane damage and ethylene emission were both reduced in DAAME‑treated plants. This effect is probably…
Biothiols, taurine, and lipid-soluble antioxidants in the edible pulp of Sicilian cactus pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) fruits and changes of bioactive …
2005
Biothiols, taurine, and flavonols, as well as tocopherols and carotenoids have been assessed in the edible pulp of Sicilian red (Sanguigna), yellow (Surfarina), and white (Muscaredda) cultivars of cactus pear. The yellow cultivar has the highest level of reduced glutathione (GSH, 8.1 +/- 0.78 mg/100 g pulp), whereas the white cultivar showed the highest amount of cysteine (1.21 +/- 0.12 mg/100 g pulp). Taurine accounted for 11.7 +/- 1.0 mg/100 g in the yellow pulp, while lower levels were measured in the others. With the exception of kaempferol in the yellow cultivar (2.7 +/- 0.2 microg/100 g pulp), the edible pulp of cactus pear was not a source of flavonols. Very low amounts of lipid-solu…
