Biocatalytic production of D- p -hydroxyphenylglycine by optimizing protein expression and cell wall engineering in Escherichia coliAbstractD-p-hydroxyphenylglycine (D-HPG) functions as an intermediate and has important value in antibiotic industries. The high pollution and costs from chemical processes make biotechnological route for D-HPG highly desirable. Here, a whole-cell transformation process by D-hydantoinase(Hase) and D-carbamoylase(Case) was developed to produce D-HPG from DL-hydroxyphenylhydantoin(DL-HPH)...

 Annals of Neurology , The "maternal effect" on epilepsy risk: analysis of familial epilepsies and reassessment of prior evidenceABSTRACT Objective Previous studies have observed that epilepsy risk is higher among offspring of affected women than offspring of affected men. We tested whether this "maternal effect" was present in familial epilepsies, which are enriched for genetic factors that contribute to epilepsy risk. Methods We assessed evidence of a maternal effect in a cohort of families containing...
