Platelet activation and blood extracellular vesicles: The influence of venepuncture and short blood storage
CONCLUSIONS: Preanalytical factors like needle thickness and storage time can affect the MVs' properties. Activation of platelets during blood collection or blood storage occurs; however, it is difficult to determine its effect on the physiological properties of EVs since the mechanisms of EVs` biogenesis and especially clearness are not precisely known.PMID:38492545 | DOI:10.1016/j.bcmd.2024.102842 (Source: Blood Cells, Molecules and Diseases)

A novel endo-1,4- β-xylanase from Alicyclobacillus mali FL18: Biochemical characterization and its synergistic action with β-xylosidase in hemicellulose deconstruction
Int J Biol Macromol. 2024 Mar 1:130550. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.130550. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA novel endo-1,4-β-xylanase-encoding gene was identified in Alicyclobacillus mali FL18 and the recombinant protein, named AmXyn, was purified and biochemically characterized. The monomeric enzyme worked optimally at pH 6.6 and 80 °C on beechwood xylan with a specific activity of 440.00 ± 0.02 U/mg and a good catalytic efficiency (kcat/KM = 91.89 s-1mLmg-1). In addition, the enzyme did not display any activity on cellulose, suggesting a possible application in paper biobleaching processes. To develop an enzymatic mi...
