  • Combined Network Analysis and Machine Learning Allows the Prediction of Metabolic Pathways from Tomato Metabolomics Data
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-019-0440-4 OPEN Combined network analysis and machine learning allows the prediction of metabolic pathways from tomato metabolomics data David Toubiana 1, Rami Puzis 2, Lingling Wen3, Noga Sikron3, Assylay Kurmanbayeva3, 1234567890():,; Aigerim Soltabayeva3, Maria del Mar Rubio Wilhelmi1, Nir Sade3,4, Aaron Fait3, Moshe Sagi3, Eduardo Blumwald 1 & Yuval Elovici2 The identification and understanding of metabolic pathways is a key aspect in crop improvement and drug design. The common approach for their detection is based on gene annotation and ontology. Correlation-based network analysis, where metabolites are arran- ged into network formation, is used as a complentary tool. Here, we demonstrate the detection of metabolic pathways based on correlation-based network analysis combined with machine-learning techniques. Metabolites of known tomato pathways, non-tomato pathways, and random sets of metabolites were mapped as subgraphs onto metabolite correlation networks of the tomato pericarp. Network features were computed for each subgraph, generating a machine-learning model. The model predicted the presence of the β-alanine- degradation-I, tryptophan-degradation-VII-via-indole-3-pyruvate (yet unknown to plants), the β-alanine-biosynthesis-III, and the melibiose-degradation pathway, although melibiose was not part of the networks. In vivo assays validated the presence of the melibiose- degradation pathway. For the remaining pathways only some of the genes encoding reg- ulatory enzymes were detected. 1 Department of Plant Sciences, University of California, Davis, CA, USA. 2 Telekom Innovation Labs, Department of Software and Information Systems Engineering, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer Sheva, Israel.

Under these conditions with the A. brusilense strain UAP 14, we observed two aromatic amino acid aminotransferases. Their enzymatic activity and electrophoretic mobility under non-denaturating conditions were character- ized using cell-free extracts. Biochemical studies showed that these two enzymes can be distinguished by their electrophoretic mobilities.

  • Role of Tryptophan-Metabolizing Microbiota in Mice Diarrhea Caused
    Zhang et al. BMC Microbiology (2020) 20:185 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12866-020-01864-x RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Role of tryptophan-metabolizing microbiota in mice diarrhea caused by Folium sennae extracts Chenyang Zhang1,2, Haoqing Shao1,2, Dandan Li3, Nenqun Xiao3* and Zhoujin Tan2,3* Abstract Background: Although reports have provided evidence that diarrhea caused by Folium sennae can result in intestinal microbiota diversity disorder, the intestinal bacterial characteristic and specific mechanism are still unknown. The objective of our study was to investigate the mechanism of diarrhea caused by Folium sennae, which was associated with intestinal bacterial characteristic reshaping and metabolic abnormality. Results: For the intervention of Folium sennae extracts, Chao1 index and Shannon index were statistical decreased. The Beta diversity clusters of mice interfered by Folium sennae extracts were distinctly separated from control group. Combining PPI network analysis, cytochrome P450 enzymes metabolism was the main signaling pathway of diarrhea caused by Folium sennae. Moreover, 10 bacterial flora communities had statistical significant difference with Folium sennae intervention: the abundance of Paraprevotella, Streptococcus, Epulopiscium, Sutterella and Mycoplasma increased significantly; and the abundance of Adlercreutzia, Lactobacillus, Dehalobacterium, Dorea and Oscillospira reduced significantly. Seven of the 10 intestinal microbiota communities were related to the synthesis of tryptophan derivatives, which affected the transformation of aminotryptophan into L-tryptophan, leading to abnormal tryptophan metabolism in the host. Conclusions: Folium sennae targeted cytochrome P450 3A4 to alter intestinal bacterial characteristic and intervene the tryptophan metabolism of intestinal microbiota, such as Streptococcus, Sutterella and Dorea, which could be the intestinal microecological mechanism of diarrhea caused by Folium sennae extracts.

  • Practical Enzymology
    [Downloaded free from http://www.jnsbm.org on Wednesday, October 11, 2017, IP: 130.209.115.202] Letters to Editor need for a practical manual for enzymology. The second Methodological chapter comprises a very useful and well‑written piece of essential knowledge under the title “General aspects of enzyme accuracy and firm analysis”; a must‑read condensed version of the theoretical basis of enzymology, accompanied by amazing figures interpretation of and very useful tables summarizing the basis that anyone involved in enzyme analysis should know. The third chapter enzymatic analysis: is an extended assay‑describing collection (entitled “Enzyme assays”) that provides a beautifully organized pattern of The usefulness of methodological approaches to a significant number of enzyme assays, overviewed in Table 1. An interesting Bisswanger’s “Practical Table 1: Overview of the enzymes for which the Enzymology” activity determining assays by spectroscopic or other methods are included in Bisswanger’s Sir, second edition of “Practical Enzymology”.[7] Despite the enormous technological and scientific progress Enzyme’s name; abbreviation (s)* EC number sM oM that biomedical sciences have witnessed over the last Alcohol dehydrogenase; ADH 1.1.1.1 [++] - decades, the automation of the majority of laboratory Alcohol dehydrogenase (NADP+) 1.1.1.2 [++]# - techniques used for the conduction of routine assays Homoserine dehydrogenase; AK-HDH 1.1.1.3 [+] - for industrial, academic, and clinical purposes and the I commercialization of a significant number of diagnostic Shikimate dehydrogenase 1.1.1.25 [+] - L-Lactate dehydrogenase; LDH 1.1.1.27 [+++] - tests into commercially‑available kits, a significant Malate dehydrogenase; MDH 1.1.1.37 [+] - percentage of the basic biomedical research output is Malate dehydrogenase 1.1.1.38 [+] - still set up and conducted in a non‑automatic, analytical (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating) (NAD+) [1,2] Malate dehydrogenase 1.1.1.39 [+] - bench‑based biochemical manner.
