Glycoproteomics and Its Role in Understanding Bacterial O‐Linked Glycosylation
ABSTRACT Protein glycosylation is now recognized as a ubiquitous process observed in all domains of life. Within bacterial species, carbohydrates can be attached to multiple residues with glycosylation of serine, threonine, or tyrosine residues via their hydroxyl side chains referred to as O‐linked glycosylation.

Crystal Structure and Functional Characterization of YjgK From Salmonella Typhimurium
ABSTRACT The YhcH/YjgK/YiaL (DUF386) family, widely conserved across bacterial species, is involved in essential cellular processes yet remains poorly characterized. YjgK from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium has drawn attention because of its potential role in biofilm formation associated with metal homeostasis, which may be critical for ...

Airway host-microbiome interactions in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Background Little is known about the interactions between the lung microbiome and host response in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods We performed a longitudinal 16S ribosomal RNA gene-based microbiome survey on 101 sputum samples from

Identification of a Histidine Metal Ligand in the \u3cem\u3eargE\u3c/em\u3e-Encoded \u3cem\u3eN\u3c/em\u3e-Acetyl-L-Ornithine Deacetylase from \u3cem\u3eEscherichia coli\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]
The H355A, H355K, H80A, and H80K mutant enzymes of the argE-encoded N-acetyl-L-ornithine deacetylase (ArgE) from Escherichia coli were prepared, however, only the H355A enzyme was found to be soluble. Kinetic analysis of the Co(II)-loaded H355A exhibited

The Mechanism of NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation and Its Roles in Chronic Rhinosinusitis
ABSTRACT NLRP3 (NLR family pyrin domain containing 3) is one of the crucial receptors in pathogen recognition receptor (PRR) families which can recognize the pathogen‐associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and the damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), thus triggering innate immune response. After NLRP3 activation, it recruits the adaptor protein
