Twenty yeast isolates were classified into two major yeast species, namely <em>Pichia kudriavzevii</em> (twelve isolates) and <em>Candida tropicalis</em> (eight isolates). All <em>P. kudriavzevii</em> isolates were able to grow at high temperature (45 °C) and exhibited stress tolerance toward furfural.

Morphological changes in <em>P. kudriavzevii</em> isolates (NUCG–S2, NUCG–S3, NUKL–P1, NUKL–P3, and NUOR–J1) showed alteration in mean cell length and width compared to the non–stress condition.

Recent findings have suggested that various dietary proteins can serve as precursors to peptides that inhibit DPP-IV. Although several DPP-IV inhibitory peptides derived from food materials have been reported, more effective inhibitory peptides remain to be discovered. This study aimed to identify potent DPP-IV inhibitory peptides that earlier approaches had overlooked by employing a screening method that combined peptide arrays and neutralizing antibodies. Octa-peptides covering the complete amino acid sequences of four casein proteins and two whey proteins were synthesized on arrays via a solid-phase method. These peptides were then reacted with a monoclonal antibody specifically engineered to recognize glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), a substrate of DPP-IV. The variable region of the anti-GLP-1 monoclonal antibody is utilized to mimic the substrate-binding region of DPP-IV, enabling the antibody to bind to peptides that interact with DPP-IV. Based on this feature, 26 peptides were selected as DPP-IV inhibitory peptide candidates, 11 of which showed strong DPP-IV inhibitory activity. Five of these peptides consistently contained cysteines positioned two to four residues from the N-terminus. Treatment with disulfide formation decreased the DPP-IV inhibitory activity of these cysteine-containing peptides, while the inhibitory activity of α-lactalbumin hydrolysates increased with reducing treatment. These results revealed that the thiol group is important for DPP-IV inhibitory activity. This study provides a useful screen for DPP-IV inhibitory peptides and indicates the importance of reductive cysteine residues within DPP-IV inhibitory peptides.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15199,"journal":{"name":"Journal of bioscience and bioengineering","volume":"138 4","pages":"Pages 351-359"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141859879","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, the expression of denitrification genes such as </span><span><em>napA</em></span>, <em>cnorB</em>, and <em>nirS</em> was enhanced by HA. Nonetheless, the <em>nosZ</em> gene and N<sub>2</sub>OR activity underwent suppression by HA, which was accountable for N<sub>2</sub><span>O emission. It is crucial to understand the HA mechanism towards aerobic denitrifiers<span> for wastewater treatment plants to enhance nitrogen removal.</span></span></p></div>","PeriodicalId":15199,"journal":{"name":"Journal of bioscience and bioengineering","volume":"138 4","pages":"Pages 338-344"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2024-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141727289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
