Unraveling and engineering the production of 23,24-bisnorcholenic steroids in sterol metabolism
The catabolism of sterols in mycobacteria is highly important due to its close relevance in the pathogenesis of pathogenic strains and the biotechnological applications of nonpathogenic strains for… Expand

Tyrosinase inhibitory effect and inhibitory mechanism of tiliroside from raspberry
Tiliroside was found to inhibit both monophenolase and diphenolase activity of mushroom tyrosinase. The lag time of tyrosine oxidation catalyzed by mushroom tyrosinase was obviously lengthened; 0.337… Expand

RNA-Seq analysis uncovers non-coding small RNA system of Mycobacterium neoaurum in the metabolism of sterols to accumulate steroid intermediates
BackgroundUnderstanding the metabolic mechanism of sterols to produce valuable steroid intermediates in mycobacterium by a noncoding small RNA (sRNA) view is still limited. In the work, RNA-seq was… Expand

Establishment of a low‐dosage‐IPTG inducible expression system construction method in Escherichia coli
The lac operon is a delicate inducible gene expression element in bacteria. To efficiently induce gene expression, a sufficient dosage of an inducer, usually that of 500–1000 µM isopropyl… Expand
