Intrinsic sequence specificity of the Cas1 integrase directs new spacer acquisition [PDF]
The adaptive prokaryotic immune system CRISPR-Cas provides RNA-mediated protection from invading genetic elements. The fundamental basis of the system is the ability to capture small pieces of foreign DNA for incorporation into the genome at the CRISPR ...

Endoribonucleases associated with RNAs in chick embryos
proteins in hemopoietic rat cells were reported to have RNase activities [ 121. Similarly, an endogeneous endoribonucleolytic activity was found in the 50 S ribosomal subunit of Eschenihia coli [ 131. This paper describes the existence of a RNA-bound cytoplasmic endoribonuclease in chick embryo.

A Novel Endoribonuclease, RNase LS, in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Abstract The dmd gene of bacteriophage T4 is required for the stability of late-gene mRNAs. When this gene is mutated, late genes are globally silenced because of rapid degradation of their mRNAs. Our previous work suggested that a novel Escherichia coli endonuclease, RNase LS, is responsible for the rapid degradation of mRNAs.

Immune Evasion of Helicobacter pylori and Extra‐Gastric Cancer Risk
ABSTRACT Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a group 1 gastric carcinogen that plays a significant role in extra‐gastric digestive system cancers. H. pylori disrupts host cell homeostasis through expression of virulence factors leading to immune evasion as well as persistent gastric mucosal colonization. H. pylori infection has been shown to play a role

Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

A novel arabinose-inducible genetic operation system developed for Clostridium cellulolyticum [PDF]
Background: Clostridium cellulolyticum and other cellulolytic Clostridium strains are natural producers of lignocellulosic biofuels and chemicals via the consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) route, and systems metabolic engineering is indispensable to meet

Genome‐Wide In Silico Analysis of the Type VI Secretion System (T6SS) Within the Morganella Genus
▪ Species‐specific T6SS patterns among Morganella genus (M. morganii and M. sibonii). ▪ Only one‐third of M. morganii isolates haboured a T6SS. ▪ All M. sibonii possess four T6SS clusters. ▪ M. sibonii exhibited a wide diversity of effectors compared to M. morganii.

Ribonucleases facilitate rapid turnover of RNA, providing cells with another mechanism to adjust transcript and protein levels in response to environmental conditions. While many examples have been documented, a comprehensive list of RNase targets is not

In vitro reconstitution of Cascade-mediated CRISPR immunity in Streptococcus thermophilus [PDF]
Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-encoded immunity in Type I systems relies on the Cascade (CRISPR-associated complex for antiviral defence) ribonucleoprotein complex, which triggers foreign DNA degradation by an ...

This article describes the unusual cytology features of a DICER1‐mutated thyroid nodule. Fine needle aspiration revealed predominantly cell debris/degenerated cells and rare viable follicular cells with mild cytologic atypia. Surgical resection revealed a nodule with nearly complete infarction, which is one specific feature of DICER1‐mutated thyroid ...
