Identification and characterization of a gene conferring stress resistance in Escherichia coli and cyanobacteria

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Functional screening identified PcSyn14890, a cyanobacteria‐specific protein that enhances growth and stress resistance in E. coli and Synechocystis PCC6803. Although we expected it to function as a molecular chaperone, it was unable to protect against thermal aggregation of GAPDH.

Antimicrobial Drug Resistance in Blood Culture Isolates at a Tertiary Hospital, Uganda

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2018
We summarize antimicrobial drug resistance (AMR) patterns from blood cultures at a tertiary hospital in Uganda. High rates of resistance to first-line antibiotic drugs were observed among Staphylococcus aureus and gram-negative organisms.
