Lrp13 is a novel vertebrate lipoprotein receptor that binds vitellogenins in teleost fishes
JOURNAL OF LIPID RESEARCH, 55(11), 2287–2295.
author keywords: affinity purification; egg; endocytosis; oocyte; oogenesis; ovary; vitellogenesis; very low density lipoprotein receptor; yolk; low density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 13
MeSH headings : Animals; Bass; Cloning, Molecular; Fish Proteins / chemistry; Fish Proteins / genetics; Fish Proteins / metabolism; Gene Expression Regulation; Humans; Intracellular Space / metabolism; Protein Binding; Protein Transport; Receptors, Lipoprotein / chemistry; Receptors, Lipoprotein / genetics; Receptors, Lipoprotein / metabolism; Vitellogenins / metabolism
TL;DR:
The Lrp13 appears to function as a vitellogenin receptor and may be an important mediator of yolk formation in fishes and other oviparous vertebrates and the presence of lp13 orthologs in mammals suggests that this lipoprotein receptor is widely distributed among vertebrates, where it may generally play a role in lipop protein metabolism.

Modulation of the phenylacetic acid metabolic complex by quinic acid alters the disease-causing activity of Rhizoctonia solani on tomato
Phytochemistry, 89, 47–52.
author keywords: Solanum lycopersicum L.; Solanaceae; Tomato; Rhizoctonia solani; Basidiomycota; Fungi; Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry; Bioassay; Host response; Phenylacetic acid; Quinic acid; Plant disease; Phenylalanine metabolism
MeSH headings : Solanum lycopersicum / microbiology; Phenylacetates / chemistry; Phenylacetates / metabolism; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Growth Regulators / biosynthesis; Plant Growth Regulators / chemistry; Quinic Acid / pharmacology; Rhizoctonia / drug effects; Rhizoctonia / growth & development; Rhizoctonia / metabolism; Rhizoctonia / physiology
TL;DR:
The results of this study support the hypotheses that utilization of QA by R. solani leads to reduced production of the plant growth regulators belonging to the PAA metabolic complex which can suppress plant disease development.

Multiple vitellogenins and product yolk proteins in striped bass, Morone saxatilis: molecular characterization and processing during oocyte growth and maturation
FISH PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY, 40(2), 395–415.
author keywords: Striped bass; Vitellogenin; Yolk; Post-vitellogenic oocytes; Ovulated eggs; Maturation; Mass spectrometry
MeSH headings : Amino Acid Sequence; Animals; Bass / genetics; Bass / growth & development; Bass / metabolism; Blotting, Western; Cloning, Molecular; DNA, Complementary / genetics; Egg Proteins / genetics; Egg Proteins / metabolism; Female; Fish Proteins / genetics; Fish Proteins / metabolism; Male; Molecular Sequence Data; Oocytes / growth & development; Oocytes / metabolism; Peptide Fragments / genetics; Peptide Fragments / metabolism; Phylogeny; Protein Processing, Post-Translational; Sequence Homology, Amino Acid; Tandem Mass Spectrometry; Vitellogenesis; Vitellogenins / genetics; Vitellogenins / metabolism
TL;DR:
The detailed characterization of Vtgs and their proteolytic fate(s) during oocyte growth and maturation establishes striped bass as a freshwater model for investigating teleost multiple Vtg systems.

Elucidating the role of the phenylacetic acid metabolic complex in the pathogenic activity of Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group 3
MYCOLOGIA, 104(4), 793–803.
author keywords: aggressiveness; benzeneacetic acid; GC-MS; host response; Thanatephorus; virulence factor
MeSH headings : Culture Media; Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry; Host-Parasite Interactions; Solanum lycopersicum / growth & development; Solanum lycopersicum / microbiology; Mycelium / growth & development; Phenylacetates / metabolism; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Plant Roots / microbiology; Plant Stems / microbiology; Rhizoctonia / growth & development; Rhizoctonia / metabolism; Rhizoctonia / pathogenicity; Seedlings / growth & development
TL;DR:
The results of this investigation add to the body of evidence that the PAA metabolic complex is involved in Rhizoctonia disease development but do not indicate that production of these compounds is the primary or the only determinant of pathogenicity.

Mannitol biosynthesis is required for plant pathogenicity by Alternaria alternata
FEMS MICROBIOLOGY LETTERS, 285(1), 122–129.
author keywords: mannitol metabolism; reactive oxygen species; antioxidant; plant disease
MeSH headings : Alternaria / genetics; Alternaria / growth & development; Alternaria / metabolism; Alternaria / pathogenicity; Fungal Proteins / genetics; Fungal Proteins / metabolism; Mannitol / metabolism; Plant Diseases / microbiology; Spores, Fungal / genetics; Spores, Fungal / growth & development; Spores, Fungal / metabolism; Spores, Fungal / pathogenicity; Sugar Alcohol Dehydrogenases / genetics; Sugar Alcohol Dehydrogenases / metabolism; Tobacco / microbiology; Trehalose / metabolism
TL;DR:
It is concluded that mannitol biosynthesis is required for pathogenesis of A. alternata on tobacco, but is not required for spore germination either in vitro or in planta or for initial infection.
