A Hanks‐type bacterial kinase, PknS, directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK to promote resistance to protist predation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The Xanthomonas citri Hanks‐type kinase PknS autophosphorylates and directly phosphorylates the alternative sigma factor EcfK at five residues. Besides the conserved residue T51 in the σ2 domain, phosphorylation of a residue in the linker between σ2 and σ4 is critical for EcfK activation by promoting its interaction with a positively charged pocket in ...

Whole genome sequencing of historical specimens from the world's largest fungal collection yields high‐quality assemblies

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary High‐throughput molecular studies of museum specimens (museomics) have great potential in biodiversity research, but fungal historical collections have scarcely been examined, leading to no comprehensive methodological assessments. Here we present a whole genome sequencing (WGS) project conducted at the Fungarium of the Royal Botanic Gardens ...

Engineered surface strategies to manage dental implant‐related infections

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract When exposed to the oral environment, dental implants, like natural surfaces, become substrates for microbial adhesion and accumulation, often leading to implant‐related infections—one of the main causes of implant failure. These failures impose significant costs on patients, clinicians, and healthcare systems.

Chemical agents to control biofilm formation in step 1 of care—Toothpastes and mouthwashes/concepts and challenges

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Maintaining optimal oral hygiene is important for overall oral care, ensuring the well‐being of teeth and their surrounding tissues. In addition, it promotes fresh breath and a pleasing smile. A key element of oral self‐care is the daily use of toothpaste during regular brushing.

Interpreting amide proton transfer-weighted imaging contrast between normal and tumor brain tissues using the asymmetry analysis method at 4.7 T. [PDF]

open access: yesMagn Reson Med
Abstract Purpose To provide a comprehensive analysis of the contributors to the amide proton transfer‐weighted (APTw) imaging signal using an asymmetry analysis method, as well as its contrast between tumors and the contralateral normal tissues at 4.7 T. Methods First, a signal model was developed to demonstrate the dependence of APTw signal on various

Differential effect of lead and cadmium on mitochondrial function and NLRP3 inflammasome activation in human trophoblast

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The human placenta not only detects the presence of Pb and Cd but also carries hypoxia and inflammatory risks, which are associated with pregnancy complications. To understand the impact of these factors on the placental trophoblast, we evaluated the effect of Pb and Cd on mitochondrial function and the NLRP3 inflammasome in ...

Synthesis of guanidine from ammonium thiocyanate in solid state

open access: yesJournal of the Brazilian Chemical Society, 2004
Guanidine is an important substance for modern living beings as well as for the prebiotic chemistry. We studied the reaction between ammonium and thiocyanate species in solid state with different substances (river sand, kaolin, transition metals, salts ...
