Opportunities Lost? Evolutionary Causes and Ecological Consequences of the Absence of Trehalose Digestion in Birds

Autor: Antonio Brun, Yocelyn Gutiérrez-Guerrero, Melisa E. Magallanes, Enrique Caviedes-Vidal, William H. Karasov, Carlos Martínez del Rio

Publikováno v: Physiological and Biochemical Zoology. 95:340-349

Trehalose is a nonreducing disaccharide that is a primary storage and energy source in prokaryotes, yeasts, fungi, and invertebrates. Vertebrates digest trehalose with the intestinal brush border membrane (BBM) enzyme trehalase. Intestinal trehalase

A Fast and Accurate Method to Identify and Quantify Enzymes in Brush-Border Membranes: In Situ Hydrolysis Followed by Nano LC-MS/MS

Autor: Antonio Brun, Melisa E. Magallanes, Carlos Martínez del Rio, Gregory A. Barrett-Wilt, William H. Karasov, Enrique Caviedes-Vidal

Publikováno v: Methods and Protocols, Vol 3, Iss 1, p 15 (2020)

A simple method for the identification of brush-border membrane α-glucosidases is described. The proteins were first solubilized and separated in a gel under native, non-denaturing, conditions. The gel was then incubated in substrate solutions (malt

Vertebrate diets and digestive physiologies vary tremendously. Although the contribution of ecological and behavioral features to such diversity is well documented, the roles and identities of individual intestinal enzymes shaping digestive traits re

Rapid and parallel changes in activity and mRNA of intestinal peptidase to match altered dietary protein levels in juvenile house sparrows (

Autor: Antonio, Brun, Melisa E, Magallanes, William H, Karasov, Enrique, Caviedes-Vidal

Publikováno v: The Journal of experimental biology. 224(Pt 3)

Although dietary flexibility in digestive enzyme activity (i.e. reaction rate) is widespread in vertebrates, mechanisms are poorly understood. When laboratory rats are switched to a higher protein diet, the activities of apical intestinal peptidases

Intestinal α-glycosidase transcriptional responses during development and diet adjustment in altricial birds

Autor: Enrique Caviedes-Vidal, William H. Karasov, Claudia Gatica-Sosa, Paweł Brzęk, Melisa E Magallanes

Publikováno v: The Journal of experimental biology. 221(Pt 6)

We describe developmental changes in maltasic activity and its mRNA until adulthood, and in response to an increase in dietary starch. We studied house sparrows (Passer domesticus), which undergo a natural switch from insects to a starch-containing s

Gut microbial ecology of lizards: insights into diversity in the wild, effects of captivity, variation across gut regions and transmission

Autor: Joshua Brinkerhoff, Antonio Brun, Melisa E Magallanes, Alejandro Laspiur, Enrique Caviedes-Vidal, Juan Carlos Acosta, Seth R. Bordenstein, Kevin D. Kohl

Animals maintain complex associations with a diverse microbiota living in their guts. Our understanding of the ecology of these associations is extremely limited in reptiles. Here, we report an in-depth study into the microbial ecology of gut communi

Physiological and microbial adjustments to diet quality permit facultative herbivory in an omnivorous lizard

While herbivory is a common feeding strategy in a number of vertebrate classes, less than 4% of squamate reptiles feed primarily on plant material. It has been hypothesized that physiological or microbial limitations may constrain the evolution of he
