The detailed mechanisms of COVID-19 infection pathology remain poorly understood. To improve our understanding of SARS-CoV-2 pathology, we performed a multi-omics and correlative analysis of an immunologically naïve SARS-CoV-2 clinical cohort from blood ...

The Bacillus subtilis signaling protein SpoIVB defines a new family of serine peptidases [PDF]
The protein SpoIVB plays a key role in signaling in the sigma (K) checkpoint of Bacillus subtilis. This regulatory mechanism coordinates late gene expression during development in this organism and we have recently shown SpoIVB to be a serine peptidase ...

Urinary felinine excretion in intact male cats is increased by dietary cystine [PDF]
Felinine is a branched-chain sulfur amino acid present in the urine of certain Felidae, including domestic cats. The objective of the present study was to determine if additional cystine and/or dietary N would increase felinine and N-acetylfelinine ...

ArgR is an essential local transcriptional regulator of the arcABC-operon in Streptococcus suis and crucial for biological fitness in acidic environment [PDF]
Streptococcus suis is one of the most important pathogens in pigs and can also cause severe infections in humans. Despite its clinical relevance very little is known about the factors contributing to its virulence.

A proteinaceous organic matrix regulates carbonate mineral production in the marine teleost intestine [PDF]
Marine teleost fish produce CaCO(3) in their intestine as part of their osmoregulatory strategy. This precipitation is critical for rehydration and survival of the largest vertebrate group on earth, yet the molecular mechanisms that regulate this ...

DIPEPTIDYL PEPTIDASE-4 REGULATION OF SDF-1/CXCR4 AXIS: IMPLICATIONS FOR CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) is a ubiquitously expressed protease that regulates a diverse number of physiologic functions. As a dipeptidase it exerts its catalytic effects on proteins/peptides with proline, alanine or serine in the penultimate (P1 ...

The toxicity of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors to larvae of the disease vectors Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae [PDF]
The control of mosquitoes is threatened by the appearance of insecticide resistance and therefore new control chemicals are urgently required. Here we show that inhibitors of mosquito peptidyl dipeptidase, a peptidase related to mammalian angiotensin ...
