Antioxidant and cryoprotective effects of Amur sturgeon skin gelatin hydrolysate in unwashed fish mince.

Nikoo M1, Benjakul S2, Xu X3.
Food chemistry.Food Chem.2015 Aug 15;181:295-303. doi: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2015.02.095. Epub 2015 Feb 25.
Antioxidant and cryoprotective effects of Amur sturgeon skin gelatin hydrolysates prepared using different commercial proteases in unwashed fish mince were investigated. Gelatin hydrolysates prepared using either Alcalase or Flavourzyme, were effective in preventing lipid oxidation as evidenced by t

Mitochondria morphology constantly changes through fission and fusion processes that regulate mitochondrial function, and it therefore plays a prominent role in cellular homeostasis. Cell death progression is associated with mitochondrial fission. Fission is mediated by the mainly cytoplasmic Drp1,

Axons act like cables, electrically wiring the nervous system. Polar bundles of microtubules (MTs) form their backbones and drive their growth. Plus end-tracking proteins (+TIPs) regulate MT growth dynamics and directionality at their plus ends. However, current knowledge about +TIP functions, mostl

Regulation of organ straightening and plant posture by an actin–myosin XI cytoskeleton

Okamoto Keishi,Ueda Haruko,Shimada Tomoo,Tamura Kentaro,Kato Takehide,Tasaka Masao,Morita Miyo Terao,Hara-Nishimura Ikuko
Nature Plants 1(4), 2015-03-23
… Here, we show that the straightening of inflorescence stems is regulated by an actin–myosin XI cytoskeleton in specialized immature fibre cells that are parallel to the stem and encircle it in a thin band. … Arabidopsis mutants defective in myosin XI (specifically XIf and XIk) or ACTIN8 exhibit hyperbending of stems in response to gravity, an effect independent of the physical properties of the shoots. …
