It is widely accepted that fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) plays a central role in the hydrolysis of anandamide. However, we found a second N-acylethanolamine hydrolase in animal tissues which hydrolyzed anandamide at acidic pH. This "acid amidase" was first
2,3-butanediol is a promising bulk chemical due to its extensive industry applications. The state-of-the-art nature of microbial 2,3-butanediol production is reviewed in this paper. Various strategies for efficient and economical microbial 2,3-butanediol production, including strain improvement, substrate alternation, and process
Biotechnological production of 2,3-butanediol (hereafter referred to as 2,3-BD) from wastes and excessive biomass is a promising and attractive alternative for traditional chemical synthesis. In the face of scarcity of fossil fuel supplies the bio-based process is receiving a significant

ICAM-4 (LW blood group glycoprotein) is an erythroid-specific membrane component that belongs to the family of intercellular adhesion molecules and interacts in vitro with different members of the integrin family, suggesting a potential role in adhesion or cell interaction events
The pathophysiology of brain lesions associated with cerebral palsy is multifactorial and likely involves excess release of glutamate and excess production of free radicals, among other factors. Theoretically, antioxidants could limit the severity of these brain lesions. Peroxiredoxins are a
