Robust and efficient hosts are necessary to facilitate advances in biotechnology. We unveil Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain XP as a promising new microbial chassis owing to its high growth rate and robustness. This strain has a doubling time of 48.2 min, which is 12.8 min faster than the...
Sunflower pollen is a natural nutritious food with a long history and multiple functions, however, the main chemical components apart from flavonoids and their biosynthesis processes have not been thoroughly investigated. In this study, seven hydroxycinnamic acid amides (HCAAs) (1-7) abundant in ...
Bamboo rats (Rhizomys pruinosus) are among the few mammals that lives on a bamboo-based diet which is mainly composed of lignocellulose. However, the mechanisms of adaptation of their gut microbiome and metabolic systems in the degradation of lignocellulose are largely unknown. Here, we ...
