Safety assessment of the process Carton Pack, based on Starlinger deCON technology, used to recycle post‐consumer PET into food contact materials
Abstract The EFSA Panel on Food Contact Materials, Enzymes and Processing Aids (CEP ) assessed the safety of the recycling process Carton Pack (EU register number RECYC 188), which uses the Starlinger deCON technology. The input material is hot washed and dried poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET ) flakes originating from collected post‐consumer PET containers, e.g. bottles, including no more than 5% PET from non‐food consumer applications. The flakes are preheated before being submitted to solid‐state...

Low-resolution molecular shape, biochemical characterization and emulsification properties of a halotolerant esterase from Bacillus licheniformis
Abstract Bacterial esterases are highly versatile enzymes, currently widely used in detergents, biosurfactants, bioemulsifiers and as biocatalysts in paper and food industries. Present work describes heterologous expression, purification, and biophysical and biochemical characterization of a halotolerant esterase from Bacillus licheniformis (BlEstA). BlEstA preferentially cleaves pNP-octanoate and both activity and stability of the enzyme increased in the presence of 2 M NaCl,...

Characterization of the apo-form of extracellular hemoglobin of Glossoscolex paulistus (HbGp) and its stability in the presence of urea
Abstract The structural study of small heme-containing proteins, such as myoglobin, in the apo-form lacking heme has been extensively described, but the characterization and stability of the giant Glossoscolex paulistus hemoglobin (HbGp), in the absence of heme groups, has not been studied. Spectroscopic data show efficient extraction of the heme groups from the hemoglobin, with relatively small secondary and tertiary structural changes in apo-HbGp noticed compared to oxy-HbGp....

Secondary contact and genomic admixture between rhesus and long‐tailed macaques in the Indochina Peninsula
Abstract Understanding the process and consequences of hybridization is one of the major challenges in evolutionary biology. A growing body of literature has reported evidence of ancient hybridization events or natural hybrid zones in primates, including humans; however, we still have relatively limited knowledge about the pattern and history of admixture because there have been little studies that simultaneously achieved genome‐scale analysis and a geographically wide sampling of wild populations....

200 million years of anuran body size evolution in relation to geography, ecology, and life history
Abstract Surprisingly little is known about body‐size evolution within the most diverse amphibian order, anurans (frogs and toads), despite known effects of body size on the physiological, ecological, and life‐history traits of animals more generally. Here we examined anuran body‐size evolution among 2434 species with over 200 million years of shared evolutionary history. We found clade‐specific evolutionary shifts to new body‐size optima along with numerous independent transitions to gigantic and...

Precise Replacement of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Proteasome Genes with Human Orthologs by an Integrative Targeting Method
Artificial induction of a chromosomal double-strand break in Saccharomyces cerevisiae enhances the frequency of integration of homologous DNA fragments into the broken region by up to several orders of magnitude. The process of homologous repair can be exploited to integrate, in principle, any foreign DNA into a target site, provided the introduced DNA is flanked at both the 5' and 3' ends by sequences homologous to the region surrounding the double-strand break. I have developed tools to precisely...
