The mouse-adapted strain of poliovirus type 2 (Lansing) induces fatal poliomyelitis in mice after intracerebral inoculation, whereas inoculated with 1 (Mahoney) show no signs disease. Previous work indicated that the adaptation to mouse virulence is associated viral capsid proteins and mutations neutralization antigenic site I reduce neurovirulence Lansing mice. role was further explored by constructing an hybrid virus. Six amino acids Mahoney were replaced a sequence specific for using...

Integrating waste management with fuels and chemical production is considered to address the food problem oil crisis. Approximately, 600 million tonnes crude glycerol produced from biodiesel industry annually, which a top renewable feedstock for succinic acid production. To meet increasing demand production, development of more efficient cost-effective methods urgently needed. Herein, we have proposed new strategy integration both SA in biorefinery unit by construction an aerobic yeast...

The GRAS and oleaginous yeast Yarrowia lipolytica (Y. lipolytica) is an attractive cell factory for the production of chemicals biofuels. many natural products commercial interest have been investigated in this by introducing heterologous biosynthetic pathways modifying endogenous pathways. However, since anabolism involves long complex regulation, re-channelling carbon into product target compounds still a cumbersome work, often resulting low performance.In carotenogenic genes contained...

The mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 virus genome during COVID-19 dissemination are unclear. In 788 patients from Zhejiang province, we observed decreased rate of severe/critical cases compared with Wuhan. For mechanisms exploration, isolated one strain (ZJ01) a mild patient. Thirty-five specific gene were identified. Phylogenetic and relative synonymous codon usage analysis suggested that ZJ01 may be potential evolutionary branch SARS-CoV-2. We classified 54 global strains based on base (C or T)...

Succinate dehydrogenase inactivation in Yarrowia lipolytica has been demonstrated for robust succinic acid production, whereas the inefficient glucose metabolism hindered its practical application. In this study, a simple and efficient adaptive evolution strategy via cell immobilization was conducted shake flasks, with an aim to restore of Y. mutant PGC01003. After 21 days 14 generations evolution, consumption rate increased 0.30 g/L/h YPD medium consisting 150 g/L initial concentration,...

Acid stress is often encountered during industrial fermentation as a result of the accumulation acidic metabolites. increases intracellular acidity and can cause DNA damage denaturation essential enzymes, thus leading to decrease growth yields. Although acid be relieved by addition base medium, fermentations with acid-tolerant strains are generally considered much more efficient cost-effective. In this study, global regulator H-NS was found have significant influence on tolerance E. coli....
