Hfq binding changes the structure of Escherichia coli small noncoding RNAs OxyS and RprA, which are involved in the riboregulation of rpoS [PDF]

, 2013
OxyS and RprA are two small noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) that modulate the expression of rpoS, encoding an alternative sigma factor that activates transcription of multiple Escherichia coli stress-response genes. While RprA activates rpoS for translation, OxyS

Conkazal‐M1 from the MKAVA family of conotoxins: A dual‐function protease inhibitor and neuroactive peptide

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Marine cone snails produce a diverse array of bioactive peptides, known as conotoxins, in their venom. Given their high target potency and specificity, conotoxins are attractive compounds for the development of precision research tools and pharmacological agents.

Gaining insights into MmpL3: combining structural and computational approaches to unlock transport and inhibitor‐binding mechanisms

Acta Crystallographica Section D, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 550-570, May 2026.
This study investigates the mycobacterial membrane protein MmpL3, a key target for new antituberculosis drugs, by combining high‐resolution crystallography and computational simulations. It reveals how the inhibitor UPAR‐1109 binds to MmpL3, providing detailed insights into the function and flexibility of the protein and supporting the rational design ...

Separation and purification of xylose oligomers using centrifugal partition chromatography

Journal of Industrial Microbiology & Biotechnology, 2010
Xylose oligomers, which have a prebiotic effect, have been used as additives to human and animal food. These oligomers are also the primary intermediate in hemicellulose degradation during the pretreatment of biomass. Centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) was used in this study to separate and purify xylan-derived oligomers from birchwood xylan ...

Modeling Synaptic Maturation From Growth Cone to Synapse in Human Organoids

Journal of Neurochemistry, Volume 170, Issue 5, May 2026.
Synapses are implicated in several neurological disorders and psychiatric diseases. The emergence and wide use of neural organoids provide a new opportunity to study human synapses in healthy and disease settings. Therefore, we developed a simple method for the enrichment of synaptosomes and growth cone particles from forebrain organoids. The method is

Acute Hypercapnia/Ischemia Alters the Esterification of Arachidonic Acid and Docosahexaenoic Acid Epoxide Metabolites in Rat Brain Neutral Lipids. [PDF]

, 2020
In the brain, approximately 90% of oxylipins are esterified to lipids. However, the significance of this esterification process is not known. In the present study, we (1) validated an aminopropyl solid phase extraction (SPE) method for separating ...

Ustilago maydis Phosphatidic Acid and Phosphatidylserine‐Targeting Secreted Lipase Lip3 Is Involved in Pathogenesis

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Ustilago maydis secreted lipase, Lip3 targets PA and PS and alkalinises the host apoplast, thus promoting virulence. Loss of Lip3 results in reduced apoplastic pH and decreased pathogenicity. ABSTRACT Lipases constitute important virulence factors. By targeting specific lipids involved in various cellular processes, lipases regulate growth, development,
