Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate) (PHB) is a common carbon- and energy-storage compound simultaneously produced and degraded into its monomer 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB) by numerous bacteria and Archae in a metabolic pathway called the PHB cycle. We investigated 3HB as a chemical chaperone capable of

Ectoine is a small zwitterionic osmolyte and compatible solute, which does not interfere with cell metabolism even at molar concentrations. Plasmid DNA (pUC19) was irradiated with ultraviolet radiation (UV-C at 266 nm) under quasi physiological conditions (PBS) and in pure
The Fe(II)/2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases (2-OGDs) catalyze the oxidation of substrates ranging from small molecules to large biomolecules with concomitant oxidation of co-substrate (2-oxoglutarate) into succinate. In the present study, we reported a coupled colorimetric assay that can be generally applied to

Hydroxyectoine, an ectoine derivative, is the most common compatible solute in halophilic microorganisms for resisting harsh environments. Compatible solutes can be utilized in fields such as cosmetics, medicine, and biochemistry. Moderately halophilic microorganisms produce much less hydroxyectoine as compared with

Hydroxyectoin is an ectoine used by many halophilic microorganisms to protect themselves against the extreme salt and temperature conditions in their natural environment. Ectoines have been shown to stabilize proteins, nucleic acids, membranes, and cells. They do not interfere with enzymatic and binding reactions and are highly compatible with cell metabolism.
