The Curious Case of CysE: Diversity and Distribution of Serine Acetyltransferases in Bacteria
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Serine acetyltransferase (CysE) is a member of the left‐handed β‐helix family of acetyltransferases that catalyze the rate limiting step in de novo cysteine biosynthesis. There are two isoforms of CysE that differ in length, with the shorter isoform lacking approximately 76 amino acids at the N‐terminus of the protein from the serine ...

Structural Analysis and Inhibitor Modeling of Bacterioferritin From Brucella abortus
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Iron homeostasis in various pathogenic bacteria is regulated by bacterioferritins (Bfr) which function to store Fe3+ and release Fe2+ as needed for metabolic processes. The Bfr structure consists of 18 kDa subunits in which dimer pairs bind a heme molecule and are assembled into a highly symmetrical 24‐meric spherical structure with an ...

Preparation and Characterization of Niosomes for Bacteriophage Delivery
Small Science, EarlyView.Incorporation of stearylamine into the niosome bilayer imparts a positive surface charge that promotes electrostatic interactions with negatively charged bacteriophages. This modification facilitates efficient phage encapsulation while preserving phage activity, demonstrating a simple strategy to enhance niosome‐based delivery systems for phage therapy.
