Application of a metatranscriptomics technology, CSI-Dx, for the detection of pathogens associated with prosthetic joint infections

Scientific Reports
Preoperative identification of causal organism(s) is crucial for effective prosthetic joint infection treatment. Herein, we explore the clinical application of a novel metatranscriptomic (MT) workflow, CSI-Dx, to detect pathogens associated with ...

Tissue differences and changes in the resident bacteriome composition of the Pacific oyster Magallana gigas in relation to trace metal contamination

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Symbiotic microbial communities associated with marine organisms may contribute to the biology and the local adaptation of their host, playing a crucial role in the health of the holobiont. The role of the microbiome of bivalves remains poorly understood

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Marine pollution hazards related to agriculture [PDF]

, 1994
For several centuries, agricultural activity (arable farming and livestock raising) has developed in harmony with the environment. Farmers produced what nature allowed them to produce without large quantities of input.

Monitoring contamination level on insulator materials under dry condition with a microwave reflectometer [PDF]

, 2016
Current techniques used for monitoring the levels of contamination on high voltage insulators, such as leakage current and infrared, are not effective in dry conditions since they require the surface of the insulator to be wetted by fog, rain or snow. If

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

Identification of heavy metal pollutants and their sources in farmland: an integrated approach of risk assessment and X-ray fluorescence spectrometry

Scientific Reports, 2022
Investigation and assessment of farmland pollution require an efficient method to identify heavy metal (HM) pollutants and their sources. In this study, heavy metals (HMs) in farmland were determined efficiently using high-precision X-ray fluorescence ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.
