Transglutaminase‐mediated cytokeratin modifications implicated in bile‐acid‐induced hepatocyte death
Cholestasis and bile‐acid exposure enhance expression and activity of protein crosslinking enzymes TG1 and TG2 in hepatocytes. Substrate proteins were identified by mass spectrometry using biotin‐labeled peptides (pepK5/pepT26) or amine donor (biotinylated pentylamine; BPA). Crosslinking‐induced aggregation and fragmentation of keratin 18 and 8 (K18/K8)

Investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti‐CRISPR function of AcrIIA13b protein
Anti‐CRISPR protein AcrIIA13b inhibits CRISPR–Cas9 function by preventing target DNA engagement. The Cas9–sgRNA ribonucleoprotein (RNP) normally recognizes the protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) duplex to initiate DNA cleavage. AcrIIA13b binding to the PAM‐interacting WED–PI domain blocks this recognition, leaving the target DNA intact.

ABSTRACT Although cereal grain products have low protein content, they can contribute up to 25% of total protein in low‐trophic level/omnivorous fish diets. Thus, understanding the amino acid contribution of these ingredients becomes crucial for meeting the dietary requirements of omnivorous fish.

Diet–microbiota interactions shape colonization resistance. While the microbiota restricts pathogens like Salmonella through nutrient competition, Salmonella can exploit private nutrients such as fructoselysine (FL), abundant in processed foods but inaccessible to most microbes.
