Studies of the genetics, function and kinetic mechanism of TagE - the wall teichoic acid glycosyltransferase in bacillus subtilis 168
TL;DR: This article showed that deletion of tagE resulted in the loss of α-glucose at the C-2 position of glycerol in the poly(glycerol phosphate) polymer backbone.

TL;DR: The loss of sialic acid from the sialylated core type 1 in the capsule appears to be directly related to successful fixation of the conceptus, and thus critical to the continuance of pregnancy in horses.

Amino- and thiol-modified microporous silicalite-1 and mesoporous MCM-48 materials as potential effective adsorbents for Pb(II) in polluted aquatic systems:
TL;DR: Aluminum-free zeolite silicalite-1 and the ordered mesoporous silicates Mobile Crystalline Material No. 48 (MCM-48) were prepared and functionalized with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) and 3-...
