Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManipulation of Photosynthesis in Grape (Vitis vinifera) CV. ‘Flame’ by the Application of Two Sucrose AnalogsM. E. Tiznado-Hernandez, J. A. Orozco-Avitia, A. J. Ojeda-Contreras, A. A. Gardea-BejarThe translocation of photosynthates from the leaves is important for the accumulation of sugars in grape berries. Two sucrose analogs were applied at post-veraison to determine their effects on leaf photosynthesis. It is hypothesized that the signal of sugar accumulation in leaves will bring a reduction in photosynthesis and an increase in the photosynthate translocation rate to the berries. The … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 9 Feb 2013 · 7,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiotransformation Using Recombinant Cmp Sialic Acid Synthetase and α-2, 6-Sialyltran Sferase: Enzymatic Synthesis of SialosidesUlrike Hubl, Cynthia Sun, Shuguang Zhang et al.In this research, we successfully expressed recombinant CMP-sialic Acid Synthetase (CSS) from Neisseria meningitides and 2,6-Sialyltransferase (SAT) from Photobacterium damsela in E. coli BL21(DE3) fermented at a scale of up to 8 litres using individual plasmids pIRL-1 and pIRL-4b, respectively.
