New Methodology for Alpha-Sialyl Glycoside Synthesis
New methods for the synthesis of alpha-sialyl conjugates are presented. A novel N,N-dimethylglycolamide ester auxiliary has been incorporated at the C1-position of sialyl donors, allowing for C1-neighboring group participation to generate sialyl conjugates with good to excellent alpha-selectivity …

Automated synthesis of the Lewis blood group oligosaccharides
Cell-surface carbohydrates are markers of specific cell types. These oligosaccharides are involved in recognition, adhesion, and signal transduction events. Advances in molecular glycobiology rely heavily on straightforward access to structurally defined oligosaccharides, but traditional syntheses …

The role of eukaryotic initiation factor 5A and its cellular localization in developing Zea mays plant tissue.
… in cell division (tubulin, legumin, actin), carbohydrate synthesis and modification, amino acid biosynthesis, and translation elongation factors. These interacting proteins all have a link to management and survival under low oxygen conditions in plants, suggesting a role of eIF5A as an …

Transcriptomic Insights into the Morphological Variation Present in Bromeliaceae
… trichomes, tank reservoirs, and CAM photosynthesis. Based on leaf morphology and arrangement, root type, and nutrient acquisition, Pittendrigh (1948) conservatively separated bromeliads into four main classes. These four main classes are designated Type I bromeliads, Type II bromeliads, …

Implications of Microcystin Production in Microcystis aeruginosa PCC 7806
… Microcystis channeled more resources towards carbohydrate synthesis, Synechocystis invested more in amino acids. These findings were supported by electron microscopy of high light treated cells and the quantification of storage compounds. While Microcystis accumulated mainly glycogen to about …

Unraveling the gene regulators and molecular mechanisms underlying the elevated CO2 response in C3 plants
… raffinose accumulation, and structural carbohydrate synthesis, highlighting its role in stress management and carbon partitioning under varying [CO2] and N availability. Chapter 3 was aimed at identifying an ortholog of AtbZIP1 in soybean (Glycine max) and translating findings of Chapter …

Energetics of maize C4 physiology under light limiting conditions
… MAL or aspartate, ASP); rates of PGA reduction, carbohydrate synthesis and PEP regeneration vary between BS and Mesophyll (M) cells. For these anatomical and biochemical complexities, C4 plants are highly sensitive to light conditions. Under limiting light, the activity of the CCM generally …

Synthesis Of Functionalized Gpi Anchors And Related Glycoconjugates
… describing the background, significance, and synthesis of GPI anchors and GPI-anchored molecules. GPI anchors are a class of complex glycolipids with the primary purpose of attaching cell surface proteins/glycoproteins to the cell membrane. The first chapter is focused on the synthesis of …

Synthesis of lignin-carbohydrate model compounds and neolignans
… Although it has been proposed that the biosynthesis of lignin, lignans and neolignans are via the same oxidative coupling mechanism, it is still unclear that how the plant cell wall differentiates the formation of lignans, neolignans and lignin. How and why plant cell wall generates so many …
