An investigation of the use of exogenous Glycine Betaine and Seaweed Extract to ameliorate drought stress in cutting propagation of Griselinia littoralis and Lavatera x Clementii
The exogenous application of Glycine Betaine (GB) and seaweed extract (SWE) has been suggested as a possibly effective approach for improving the drought tolerance of cuttings. The aim of this study were to test the feasibility of GB and GB+SWE helping cuttings fight drought stress during cutting …

Molecular characterisation of the mechanisms of compatible solute accumulation in Listeria monocytogenes
… previous physiological investigations identified glycine betaine, carnitine, and proline as the principal compatible solutes in the listerial osmostress response, genetic alanysis of the uptake/synthesis systems governing the accumulation of these compounds has, until now, remained largely …

Microbial Evolution In Sea Ice: Communities To Genes
… degradation of abundant compatible solutes like glycine betaine. Furthermore, the positive growth of C. psychrerythraea strain 34H on sarcosine (a derivative of glycine betaine) as a sole carbon and nitrogen source suggested that the laterally transferred genes were expressed in vitro.

Mechanical unfolding of membrane proteins captured with single-molecule AFM techniques
… functionally important interactions of sodium/glycine betaine transporter BetP of Corynebacterium glutamicum, which serves as a model system for this class of proteins. Mechanical pulling of BetP molecules embedded into the lipid membranes resulted in a step-wise unfolding of the protein and …

Analysis of plant analytes using capillary electrophoresis and high performance liquid chromatography
… of three very common osmoregulants (proline, glycine betaine and mannitol). A diverse array of methods has been reported for determining each of these analytes, however, the literature on osmoregulants and their analysis is quite disjointed and traverses both biological and chemistry fields. …

Molecular Engineering Approaches against Germs, Spores and Biofilm Formation
… pH responsive property of traditional carboxylbetaine zwitterionic polymers for bacteria detection; (2) one step further, on a monomer level, to design novel hydrolysable zwitterionic molecules that are simultaneously nonfouling and antimicrobial; (3) on a polymeric level, to integrate an …

Similarities and variations of the enterobacterial chemotaxis paradigm in Sinorhizobium meliloti
… resulted in diminished or loss of chemotaxis to glycine betaine, lysine, and acetate, ligands sensed by pentapeptide-bearing McpX and pentapeptide-lacking McpU and McpV, respectively. The flexible linker connecting the pentapeptide to the MCPs together with the pentapeptide itself were shown to …

Elucidation of the Specificity of S. meliloti Chemoreceptors for Host Derived Attractants
… to show that the QACs betonicine, choline, glycine betaine, stachydrine, and trigonelline are potent attractants for S. meliloti, McpX is the most important chemoreceptor for chemotaxis to these QACs, and we demonstrate the binding strength of McpX to the QACs with dissociation constants …
