  • He noted that a cellulosic process using yeast with transporter proteins could avoid having to add beta-glucosidases to the fermentation chamber, but enzymes would still be needed to break down cellulose into cellodextrins.

  • The oral anti-diabetic agents are categorized in four classes based on the mechanism of action: biguanides (reduced gluconeogenesis) thiazolidinediones (PPAR-g ligands), insulin secretagogues (closure of K+ channels on B cells), and a-glucosidase inhibitors (inhibitors of a-glucosidases).
