Sodium chloride in Australian grape juice and its effect on alcoholic and malolactic fermentation
No full textElevated concentrations of sodium chloride (NaCl) are being observed in grape juice and wine, typically because of increasing soil and water salinity. There has been growing concern that the salt content of grapes may affect wine quality and the ability of yeast and bacteria to undertake fermentation and malolactic fermentation, respectively. This study evaluates the tolerance of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Oenococcus oeni to salt in juice and wine by determining the duration of alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation, culture viability, and metabolite production. Increased NaCl concentrations extended fermentation duration by S. cerevisiae and elevated concentrations of acetic acid and glycerol were observed. The effect of NaCl itself was not inhibitory to the O. oeni strains surveyed and in some cases appeared to enhance the extent of malic acid catabolism.Rauri Donkin, Scott Robinson, Krista Sumby, Victoria Harris, Colin McBryde and Vladimir Jirane

An Arabidopsis cDNA encodes an apparent polyprotein of two non-identical thylakoid membrane proteins that are associated with photosystem II and homologous to algal ycf32 open reading frames
No full textAbstractWe have characterised an Arabidopsis thaliana cDNA homologous to the ycf32 open reading frames present in the Synechocystis genome and the plastid genomes of several eukaryotic algae. The predicted protein is also homologous to a novel protein reported to be associated with photosystem II. The protein is synthesised as a 23 kDa precursor with an N-terminal presequence that appears to be bipartite in structure, and the protein is targeted into the thylakoid membrane of pea chloroplasts. Although the Ycf32 presequence contains an apparent signal peptide, we find that this protein is not imported by either of the standard Sec- or ΔpH-dependent pathways. The mature protein is also unusual in two respects. First, there are two distinct, non-identical copies of typical single-span Ycf32 sequences in the Arabidopsis sequence, separated by an additional hydrophobic region. Secondly, the imported protein runs as a doublet of 6 kDa and 7 kDa polypeptides whereas the mature protein is predicted to be 14 kDa. We speculate that the protein undergoes further maturation once inserted into the thylakoid membrane to yield two separate Ycf32-like polypeptides
Targeting of proteins into and across the thylakoid membrane
No full textThe assembly of the photosynthetic apparatus utilizes component proteins that are synthesized by two genomes and then targeted into and across the thylakoid membrane. The emerging picture is one of a remarkably complex system of protein trafficking, in which at least four distinct pathways operate within the chloroplast - two for lumenal proteins and two for integral membrane proteins. Some of the pathways can be traced back to the prokaryotic ancestor of the chloroplast, whereas others appear to have arisen more recently - one in response to the transfer of genes to the plant nucleus and another, possibly, in response to the acquisition of new photosynthetic proteins. Remarkably, proteins in three of these pathways are synthesized with clearable signal-type peptides that are almost identical in overall structure, yet that execute entirely different functions. Recent studies have begun to reconcile the function of these targeting signals with the nature of the protein being targeted.</p
The Multi-level Dimensions of Peace: The New Macro Regionalism in Europe
No full textSince 2009 several macro-regions have been created, or are in the pro- cess of being created, on European territory. While scholars have discussed the broader implications of this new development, above all macro-regions’ contribution to the pursuit of cohesion goals, little attention has been given to their impact on peace and stability. Focusing on the case of the Adriatic Ionian macro-region, which involves the volatiles states of the western Balkans, this paper examines the macro-regions’ ability to further peace and stability. On balance, while there exist considerable challenges in the process of implementation of macro-regions, nonetheless this initiative represents an important attempt to involve Europe’s neighbours in the European political and institutional space and, by so doing, extends the European regional peace system to as many states as possible
