Coffee is one of the most frequently consumed drinks in the world. Coffee silverskin (CS) is
the only by-product produced during the coffee beans roasting process, and large amounts of …

Soy protein hydrolysates were produced from a soy protein isolate (SPI) in which either the
glycinin or β-conglycinin fractions had been selectively hydrolysed. The solubility, apparent …

The key enzymes of vitamin D 3 metabolism, renal 25-hydroxyvitamin D 3 1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1)
and 24-hydroxylase (CYP24) were expressed in Escherichia coli, and their …

The growth of animal cells on silk fibroin-coated plates was examined. The anchorage-dependent
cells showed almost the same growth on both fibroin- and collagen-coated plates, and …

Human 25‐hydroxyvitamin D 3 (25(OH)D 3 ) 24‐hydroxylase (CYP24) cDNA was
expressed in Escherichia coli, and its enzymatic and spectral properties were revealed. The …

Two cytochrome P450 (P450) cDNAs involved in the biosynthesis of berberine, an
antimicrobial benzylisoquinoline alkaloid, were isolated from cultured Coptis japonica cells and …

Recently, it was revealed that 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3 (1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 ) and 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin
D 3 (24,25(OH) 2 D 3 ) were metabolized to their respective epimers of the …

The activation of vitamin D requires 25-hydroxylation in the liver and 1α-hydroxylation in the
kidney. However, it remains unclear which enzyme is relevant to vitamin D 25-hydroxylation. …

Chlorogenic acid (5-caffeoylquinic acid, 5-CQA) is a kind of polyphenol and is richly included
in green coffee beans. The inhibitory effects of 5-CQA and its components, caffeic acid (CA…
