Increasing hypoxia tolerance in mammalian cells is potentially of major importance, but it
has not been feasible thus far. The disaccharide trehalose, which accumulates dramatically …

Abstract Trehalose-6-phosphate synthase (TPS) exerts important functions related to plant
desiccation tolerance and responses to environmental stimuli. However, in Medicago …

Recent studies have shown that trehalose plays a protective role in yeast in a variety of
stresses, including heat, freezing and thawing, dehydration, hyperosmotic shock, and …

Escherichia coli can synthesize trehalose in response to osmotic stress and is able to utilize
trehalose as a carbon source. The pathway of trehalose utilization is different at low and …

Trehalose is a well known as biological stabilizer functioning as stress protecting agent. It is
ubiquitously found in bacteria, fungi, invertebrates, and certain desert-adapted resurrection …

The disaccharide sugar trehalose is essential for desiccation resistance in most metazoans
that survive dryness; however, neither trehalose nor the enzymes involved in its metabolism …

Escherichia coli trehalose synthase otsBA genes have been cloned by using transposon Mu
in vivo. The cloning frequency was 1.45 x 10 (-3)/Kanr transductant. Genetic complements …

Trehalose is a quantitatively important compatible solute and stress protectant in many
organisms, including green algae and primitive plants. These functions have largely been …

In Myxococcus xanthus, trehalose is synthesized in response to osmotic stress and during
spore formation. Genome data analysis indicated that M. xanthus has five related enzymes …
