  • Factors Influencing Pesticide Resistance in Psylla Pyricola Foerster and Susceptibility Inits Mirid
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF: Hugo E. van de Baan for the degree ofDoctor of Philosopbv in Entomology presented on September 29, 181. Title: Factors Influencing Pesticide Resistance in Psylla pyricola Foerster and Susceptibility inits Mirid Predator, Deraeocoris brevis Knight. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Factors influencing pesticide susceptibility and resistance were studied in Psylla pyricola Foerster, and its mirid predator, Deraeocoris brevis Knight in the Rogue River Valley, Oregon. Factors studied were at the biochemical, life history, and population ecology levels. Studies on detoxification enzymes showed that glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase activities were ca. 1.6-fold higherin susceptible R. brevis than in susceptible pear psylla, however, esterase activity was ca. 5-fold lower. Esterase activity was ca. 18-fold higher in resistant pear psylla than in susceptible D. brevis, however, glutathione S-transferase and cytochrome P-450 monooxygenase activities were similar. Esterases seem to be a major factor conferring insecticideresistance in P. Pvricola. Although the detoxification capacities of P. rivricola and D. brevis were quite similar, pear psylla has developed resistance to many insecticides in the Rogue River Valley, whereas D. brevis has remained susceptible. Biochemical factors may be important in determining the potential of resistance development, however, they are less important in determining the rate at which resistance develops. Computer simulation studies showed that life history and ecological factors are probably of greater importancein determining the rate at which resistance develops in P. pvricola and D. brevis. High fecundity and low immigration of susceptible individuals into selected populations appear to be major factors contributing to rapid resistance development in pear psylla compared with D.

Revised 1 August 2018 Methylbenzenes dealkylation on solid acids is proposed to occur either via the side-chain mechanism, Accepted 14 October 2018 where an exocyclic C@C undergoes successive methylation prior to CAC cleavage for olefin elimination, or the paring mechanism, where ring contraction to a bicyclohexenyl cation precedes CAC cleavage for olefin elimination. Distinct dealkylation mechanisms prescribe distinct combinations of C atoms—from Keywords: aromatic methyl, aromatic ring, and methanol/dimethyl ether—to comprise the olefin product. Site- Methanol-to-olefins specific isotope tracing that distinguishes between isotope labels in aromatic methyl and aromatic ring Methylbenzenes dealkylation Isotope tracing positions for each methylbenzene shows that tetramethylbenzene gives ethylene via the side-chain Site-specific mechanism and penta- and hexamethylbenzene give propylene via the paring mechanism.

  • Amino Mannitol Dehydrogenases on the Azasugar Biosynthetic Pathway
    Send Orders for Reprints to [email protected] 10 Protein & Peptide Letters, 2014, 21, 10-14 Medium-Chain Dehydrogenases with New Specificity: Amino Mannitol Dehydrogenases on the Azasugar Biosynthetic Pathway Yanbin Wu, Jeffrey Arciola, and Nicole Horenstein* Department of Chemistry, University of Florida, Gainesville Florida, 32611-7200, USA Abstract: Azasugar biosynthesis involves a key dehydrogenase that oxidizes 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol to the 6-oxo compound. The genes encoding homologous NAD-dependent dehydrogenases from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens FZB42, B. atrophaeus 1942, and Paenibacillus polymyxa SC2 were codon-optimized and expressed in BL21(DE3) Escherichia coli. Relative to the two Bacillus enzymes, the enzyme from P. polymyxa proved to have superior catalytic properties with a Vmax of 0.095 ± 0.002 mol/min/mg, 59-fold higher than the B. amyloliquefaciens enzyme. The preferred substrate is 2- amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol, though mannitol is accepted as a poor substrate at 3% of the relative rate. Simple amino alco- hols were also accepted as substrates at lower rates. Sequence alignment suggested D283 was involved in the enzyme’s specificity for aminopolyols. Point mutant D283N lost its amino specificity, accepting mannitol at 45% the rate observed for 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol. These results provide the first characterization of this class of zinc-dependent medium chain dehydrogenases that utilize aminopolyol substrates. Keywords: Aminopolyol, azasugar, biosynthesis, dehydrogenase, mannojirimycin, nojirimycin. INTRODUCTION are sufficient to convert fructose-6-phosphate into manno- jirimycin [9].

    EFFECTS OF PRODUCT REMOVAL USING ION-EXCHANGE RESIN AND SODIUM HYDROXIDE PRETREATMENT IN MIXED-CULTURE FERMENTATION A Thesis by SHEN-CHUN HSU Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE Chair of Committee, Mark T. Holtzapple Committee Members, Ahmad K. Hilaly Zivko Nikolov Head of Department, M. Nazmul Karim May 2019 Major Subject: Chemical Engineering Copyright 2019 Shen-Chun Hsu ABSTRACT In mixed-culture fermentations of lignocellulosic biomass, periodical product removal has proven to reduce product inhibition and thereby increase biomass digestion. Previously, ion-exchange resin (Amberlite IRA-67) was employed in countercurrent fermentation, and different amounts of resin loadings (10–40 g wet resin per 1.38 L total liquid volume) were studied. Using the pre-established culture (office paper and oven-dried chicken manure), this research used higher resin loadings (50, 60, and 80 g wet resin per 1.34 L total liquid volume). The 0.3-L resin column was sustained by CO2 (gas flow rate: 1.5 L/min). Compared to 30 g resin loading, when higher loadings were introduced, biomass conversion dropped by 0.05–0.09 g NAVSdigested/g NAVSfeed. Furthermore, the yield plateaued at resin loadings greater than 40 g. Overall, the optimal resin loading for both biomass conversion and acid yield was 30–40 resin loading per 1.34 L total liquid volume, which corresponded to 21.74–29.20 g wet resin/Lliq. As indicators of digestibility, cellulase (Ctec3) and hemicellulose (Htec3) were used to saccharify pretreated corn stover.
