The collection of microbes that live in and on the human body – the human microbiome –
can impact on cancer initiation, progression, and response to therapy, including cancer …

… Moreover, the higher lipophilicity of RPalm (log P 13.8) versus ROL (log P 5.7) and RP (log
P 6.7) makes it more likely to remain in the phospholipid bilayers of keratinocytes cellular …

Metabolic engineering is generally focused on static optimization of cells to maximize production
of a desired product, though recently dynamic metabolic engineering has explored how …

Highlights • Quantification of biomarkers is necessary for the diagnosis of many diseases. •
Low-cost, point-of-care biomarker quantification remains a challenge. • New technologies, …

Analysis of metabolomic profiling data from gas chromatography−mass spectrometry (GC/MS)
measurements usually relies upon reference libraries of metabolite mass spectra to …

The BLOSUM1 family of substitution matrices, and particularly BLOSUM62, is the de facto
standard in protein database searches and sequence alignments. In the course of analyzing …

The first discovery of metabolic changes in cancer occurred almost a century ago. While the
genetic underpinnings of cancer have dominated its study since then, altered metabolism …

A full-length cDNA, HBPA2, that encodes for a new rat hepatic UDP-glucuronosyltransferase
protein, designated UGT2B12, was isolated from a rat liver cDNA library. The isolated clone …

… Glucuronidation assays for morphine, p-nitrophenol, and tripelennamine were performed
as previously described (12-14). The extent of PhIP glucuronidation was measured using …

Easy-to-perform, relatively inexpensive blood diagnostics have transformed at-home healthcare
for some patients, but they require analytical equipment and are not easily adapted to …
