Halomonas smyrnensis AADT is a halophilic, gram‐negative bacterium that can efficiently produce levan from sucrose as carbon source via levansucrase activity. However, systems‐based approaches are required to further enhance its metabolic performance for industrial application. As an important step toward this goal, the genome‐scale metabolic network of Chromohalobacter salexigens DSM3043, which is considered a model organism for halophilic bacteria, has been reconstructed based on its genome annotation, physiological information, and biochemical information. In the present work, the genome‐scale metabolic network of C. salexigens was recruited, and refined via integration of the available biochemical, physiological, and phenotypic features of H. smyrnensis AAD6T. The generic metabolic model, which comprises 1,393 metabolites and 1,108 reactions, was then systematically analyzed in silico using constraints‐based simulations. To elucidate the relationship between levan biosynthesis and other metabolic processes, an enzyme‐graph representation of the metabolic network and a graph decomposition technique were employed. Using the concept of control effective fluxes, significant links between several metabolic processes and levan biosynthesis were estimated. The major finding was the elucidation of the stimulatory effect of mannitol on levan biosynthesis, which was further verified experimentally via supplementation of mannitol to the fermentation medium. The optimal concentration of 30 g/L mannitol supplemented to the 50 g/L sucrose‐based medium resulted in a twofold increase in levan production in parallel with increased sucrose hydrolysis rate, accumulated extracellular glucose, and decreased fructose uptake rate. © 2013 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

The genetic polymorphism of the β-lactoglobulin gene was investigated in three native Turkish sheep breeds. The study was
carried out on 108 sheep (29 Kıvırcık, 38 G?k?eada, and 41 Sakız) by means of PCR-RFLP methods. Two genetic variants (A and
B) and three genotypes (AA, AB, and BB) of β-lactoglobulin have been identified. The gene frequencies of β-LG A and B were
0.7759 and 0.2241 in Kıvırcık, 0.7632 and 0.2368 in G?k?eada, and 0.9756 and 0.0244 in Sakız breeds, respectively. The populations
were in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium in all samples from the three breeds. 相似文献

In the present study, rats were administered acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), at low and high doses, by means of a gastric tube for 30 days. Chronic administration of a high dose of ASA (200 mg/kg body weight) resulted in a significant increase in liver plasma membrane gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase activity, cholesterol, and phospholipid levels. The enzymatic activity and lipid levels appeared not to be affected by ASA when given at a lower dose (50 mg/kg body weight). The changes in the enzymatic activity of plasma membrane were positively correlated to membrane cholesterol content. These findings suggest that the hepatotoxicity of high doses of ASA should not be overlooked during clinical use of the drug. 相似文献
