Protein content and lipid profiling of isolated native autophagosomes
2021
AbstractAutophagy is a central eukaryotic catabolic pathway responsible for clearance and recycling of an extensive portfolio of cargoes, which are packed in vesicles, called autophagosomes, and are delivered to lysosomes for degradation. Besides basal autophagy, which constantly degrades cellular material, the pathway is highly responsive to several stress conditions. However, the exact protein content and phospholipid composition of autophagosomes under changing autophagy conditions remain elusive so far. Here, we introduce a FACS-based approach for isolation of native unmanipulated autophagosomes and ensure the quality of the preparations. Employing quantitative proteomics and phospholip…
Controlled temperature grinding under modified atmosphere for Almond (Prunus Dulcis) paste production
2011
The quality of the raw material and the processing conditions have a great influence on the nutritional properties of finished products. This research is focused on almond paste production and aims at developing a new production process to deliver the high nutritional content of the raw almonds into the finished product. Raw almonds are composed mainly of fats (approx. 50%) and proteins (approx. 25%), and are particularly rich in omega 6 fatty acids, and are hence exposed to denaturation and oxidation phenomena during the traditional grinding/homogenization process. The study involved the analysis of six different local cultivars based upon the main nutritional indicators (protein content, …
Die Best�ndigkeit der Eiweissfraktionen und Fermente in lange gelagerten menschlichen Serumkonserven

Die Untersuchung von 8 flussigen Serumkonserven, wie sie im Kriege als Blutersatzmittel verwendet und die 5–6 Jahre bei Zimmertemperatur gelagert worden waren, ergab:
Phylogenetic profiling and cellular analyses of ARL16 reveal roles in traffic of IFT140 and INPP5E
2021
ABSTRACTThe ARF family of regulatory GTPases is ancient, with 16 members predicted to have been present in the last eukaryotic common ancestor. Our phylogenetic profiling of paralogs in diverse species identified four family members whose presence correlates with that of a cilium/flagellum: ARL3, ARL6, ARL13, and ARL16. No prior evidence links ARL16 to cilia or other cell functions, despite its presence throughout eukaryotes. Deletion of ARL16 in MEFs results in decreased ciliogenesis yet increased ciliary length. We also found Arl16 KO in MEFs to alter ciliary protein content, including loss of ARL13B, ARL3, INPP5E, and the IFT-A core component IFT140. Instead, both INPP5E and IFT140 accum…
Physical properties and Extracellular Polymeric Substances pattern of aerobic granular sludge treating hypersaline wastewater.
2017
The modification of the physical properties of aerobic granular sludge treating fish-canning wastewater is discussed in this paper. The structure and composition of the Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPSs) were analyzed at different salinity levels and related to granules stability. Results outlined that the total EPSs content increased with salinity, despite the EPSs increment was not proportional to the salt concentration. Moreover, the EPSs structure was significantly modified by salinity, leading to a gradual increase of the not-bound EPSs fraction, which was close to the 50% of the total EPSs content at 75 g NaCl L-1. The increasing salt concentration modified also the EPSs compos…
In vivo digestibility and nutritive value of Atriplex halimus alone and mixed with wheat straw
2002
In vivo digestibility trials were carried out using six young rams fed with Atriplex halimus biomass harvested in summer (A) and in early autumn (B), and with a mixture of mid-autumn Atriplex halimus and wheat straw (5[ratio ]1 ratio on fresh matter basis) (C). Atriplex halimus had a high protein content (139·0, 135·9 and 193·4 g/kg DM in A, B and C respectively), but was rich in sodium chloride, especially in summer (145·9 g/kg DM), limiting its use as feed. The summer forage had a higher organic matter (OM) digestibility coefficient than the autumn forage (0·663 v. 0·530) but lower digestible OM intake (16·8 v. 29·4 g/day per kg BW0·75). In autumn forage, the combination with straw did no…
