MetabolomicsMapping the biosynthetic pathway of a hybrid polyketide-nonribosomal peptide in a metazoan
Polyketide synthase (PKS) and nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) hybrid systems typically use complex protein-protein interactions to facilitate direct transfer of intermediates between these multimodular megaenzymes. In the canal-associated neurons (CANs) of Caenorhabditis elegans, PKS-1 and NR...

MetabolomicsPlant elicitor peptide signalling confers rice resistance to piercing-sucking insect herbivores and pathogens
Rice is a staple food crop worldwide, and its production is severely threatened by phloem-feeding insect herbivores, particularly the brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens), and destructive pathogens. Despite the identification of many BPH resistance genes, the molecular basis of rice resistanc...

MetabolomicsMetabolomic Profile of Diet-Induced Obesity Mice in Response to Human and Small Humanin-like Peptide 2 Treatment

INTRODUCTION: The mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs) are a novel group of natural occurring peptides that have important signaling functions and biological activity. Both humanin and small-humanin-like peptide 2 (SHLP2) have been reported to act as insulin sensitizers and modu...

MetabolomicsBiosynthesis of Isonitrile Lipopeptides by Conserved Non-ribosomal Peptide Synthetase Gene Clusters in Actinobacteria
A putative lipopeptide biosynthetic gene cluster is conserved in many species of Actinobacteria, including Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium marinum, but the specific function of the encoding proteins has been elusive. Using both in vivo heterologous reconstitution and in vitro biochemica...

MetabolomicsDecreasing peptide deformylase activity is a beneficial strategy for increasing formaldehyde resistance in Methylobacterium extorquens
Formaldehyde is a highly toxic metabolite that can cause extensive damage to DNA and proteins, and strategies to mitigate formaldehyde toxicity are poorly understood. Methylotrophic bacteria, such as Methylobacterium extorquens, thrive on one-carbon compounds as sole sources of carbon and energy. Th...

TranscriptomicsTranscriptomic responses in Arabidopsis thaliana to PIPL3 peptide treatment
In order to investigate possible roles of IDL and PIP/PIPL peptides, the transcriptomic response of Arabidopsis seedlings to treatment with PIPL3 peptide was analysed. PIPL3 (At4g37295) was chosen, as no functional data was available for this peptide; furthermore, PIPL3 was expressed in leaf tissue ...

TranscriptomicsC-peptide regulates early transcription in rat proximal tubular cells
C-peptide exerts beneficial effects on glomerular hyperfiltration in type I diabetic patients. As C-peptide localizes to the nucleus, we investigated the transcriptional activities of C-peptide in proximal tubular cells isolated from diabetic rats. Two groups of proximal tubular cells isolated from ...
