Feruloyl esterases (FAEs) can reduce the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass to enzymatic hydrolysis, thereby enhancing biorefinery potentials or animal feeding values of the biomass.In addition, ferulic acid, a product of FAE activity, has applications in pharmaceutical and food/beverage industries.It is therefore of great interest Glucosamin
Tethering a fly for stationary flight allows for exquisite control of its sensory input, such as visual or olfactory stimuli or a punishing infrared laser beam.A torque meter measures the turning attempts of the tethered fly around its vertical body axis.By punishing, say, left turning attempts (in a homogeneous environment), one can train a fly to
