STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE CATALYTIC DOMAIN OF A CELL-WALL ANCHORED BACTERIAL LYTIC POLYSACCHARIDE MONOOXYGENASE FROM STREPTOMYCES COELICOLOR

Abstract Bacterial lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are known to oxidize the most abundant and Gift Card recalcitrant polymers in Nature, namely cellulose and chitin.The genome of the model actinomycete Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) encodes seven putative LPMOs, of which, upon phylogenetic analysis, four group with typical chitin-oxidizi

Access to adequate foraging material can reduce the occurrence of feather pecking and cannibalism in laying hens.Technical devices may help farmers provide enrichment material more effectively.However, research in this field is rare.On a commercial free-range farm with 15,000 laying hens (Lohmann Tradition), an enrichment device was evaluated from

Antibiotic-free approaches are more important than ever to address the rapidly growing problem of the antibiotic resistance crisis.The photolysis of the bacterial virulence factor staphyloxanthin using blue light at 460 nm (BL460 nm) has been found to Prenatal Multivitamins effectively attenuate Staphylococcus aureus to chemical and physical agents

A study conducted in 1995 crop tee reveals farmworkers are generally content with their jobs.Seasonal and year-round workers in orchard, vineyard, vegetable, agronomic, dairy and livestock operations in the Northern San Joaquin Valley were interviewed.Workers were generally complimentary to both supervisors and farm employers.One worker summed it u
