Early-Stage Staphylococcus aureus Bloodstream Infection Causes Changes in the Concentrations of Lipoproteins and Acute-Phase Proteins and Is Associated with Low Antibody Titers against Bacterial Virulence Factors

open access: yesmSystems, 2020
Systemic and quantitative investigations of human plasma proteins (proteomics) and Staphylococcus aureus-specific antibodies (immunoproteomics) provide complementary information and hold promise for the discovery of biomarkers in Staphylococcus aureus ...

Isotope Ratio Outlier Analysis (IROA) for HPLC–TOFMS-Based Metabolomics of Human Urine

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
Metabolic fingerprinting by mass spectrometry aims at the comprehensive, semiquantitative analysis of metabolites. Isotope dilution, if successfully implemented, may provide a more reliable, relative quantification.

Genome-wide compendium and functional assessment of in vivo heart enhancers

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Identification of non-coding variants has outstripped our ability to annotate and interpret them. Dickel et al. present a compendium of over 80,000 putative human heart enhancers and demonstrate that two conserved enhancers are required for proper ...

Association of lipid rafts cholesterol with clinical profile in fragile X syndrome

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most prevalent monogenic cause of intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Affected individuals have a high prevalence of hypocholesterolemia, however, the underlying mechanisms and the clinical ...

Endosperm transfer cell-specific genes and proteins: structure, function and applications in biotechnology

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Endosperm transfer cells (ETC) are one of four main types of cells in endosperm. A characteristic feature of ETC is the presence of cell wall in-growths that create an enlarged plasma membrane surface area.

UBB pseudogene 4 encodes functional ubiquitin variants

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Ubiquitin pseudogenes are present in many organisms but whether they encode functional proteins has remained unclear. Here, the authors show that human UBB pseudogene 4 produces ubiquitin variants with amino acid compositions and cellular functions that ...

A single chlamydial protein reshapes the plasma membrane and serves as recruiting platform for central endocytic effector proteins

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2023
Uptake of obligate intracellular bacterial pathogens into mammalian epithelial cells is critically dependent on modulation of the host’s endocytic machinery.

Induction of central host signalling kinases during pneumococcal infection of human THP-1 cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
Streptococcus pneumoniae is a widespread colonizer of the mucosal epithelia of the upper respiratory tract of human. However, pneumococci are also responsible for numerous local as well as severe systemic infections, especially in children under the age ...

Generation of an iPSC line (UMGWi001-B) from a patient with Floating-Harbor Syndrome (FLHS) carrying a heterozygous SRCAP mutation (p.Arg2444)

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2020
Floating-Harbor syndrome (FLHS) is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in the SRCAP gene. Here, we generated an induced pluripotent stem cell line from gingival fibroblasts of a male patient with a heterozygous mutation in exon 34 of the SRCAP ...
