The transcriptome and proteome changes caused by the overexpression of Maf1 in the protozoan parasite Leishmania major suggest the participation of this protein in multiple key biological processes. Abstract Maf1, originally described as a repressor of RNA polymerase III (RNAP III) transcription in yeast, participates in multiple functions across ...

Synthesis of queuine by colonic gut microbiome via cross‐feeding
Escherichia coli, Bacteroides fragilis, and Lactobacillus reuteri could independently synthesize Que in vitro. Abundance of Limosilactobacillus, Pediococcus, and Lactobacillus was increased by Que. Distribution of TGT, QueA, and QueG in microorganisms was changed by Que and bacteria.

[13c]-Constant-Time [15n,1h]-Trosy-Hnca for Sequential Assignments of Large Proteins [PDF]
The greatly improved sensitivity resulting from the use of TROSY during 15N evolution and amide proton acquisition enables the recording of HNCA spectra of large proteins with constant-time 13Cα evolution. In [13C]-ct-[15N,1H]-TROSY-HNCA experiments with

Gene therapy for neurotransmitter‐related disorders
Abstract Inborn errors of neurotransmitter (NT) metabolism are a group of rare, heterogenous diseases with predominant neurological features, such as movement disorders, autonomic dysfunction, and developmental delay. Clinical overlap with other disorders has led to delayed diagnosis and treatment, and some conditions are refractory to oral ...
