Identification and functional validation of a novel disease‐causing variant in the noncoding region of NYX

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders, with ~30% of cases remaining genetically unsolved. Complete congenital stationary night blindness (cCSNB) is a subtype of IRD, usually associated with reduced visual acuity, nystagmus and high myopia.

PDE4D and PDE3B orchestrate distinct cAMP microdomains in 3T3‐L1 adipocytes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Basal conditions: •Ins/PDE3B lowers cytoplasmic cAMP (cyt‐cAMP) without affecting plasma membrane cAMP (pm‐cAMP). •Insulin decreases lipid droplet cAMP (LD‐cAMP) independent of PDE3B. •FGF1/PDE4D modestly reduces both cyt‐ and pm‐cAMP, while PDE4D alone can modulate LD‐cAMP. ISO stimulation: •Ins/PDE3B has minimal impact on cyt‐cAMP.

An intracellular recombinant single‐chain variable antibody fragment as a new class of phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a ubiquitous second messenger involved in human (patho‐)physiology. Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) is a major cGMP hydrolyzing enzyme in many cell types including vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Several highly selective PDE5 inhibitors are in clinical use. However, there are currently no

Authentication of Sumateran Wild Boar (Sus scrofa vittatus) Meat Contamination by Polymerase Chain Reaction Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) Technique of Cytochrome b Gene

open access: yesTropical Animal Science Journal, 2018
High population of Sumateran wild boar causes the increasing number of hunting and overflowing of wild boar meat availability in the market at a very low price. This condition leads to the falsification of meat.

BOLL‐Containing Aggregates Mediate the Translational Regulation During Human Oogenesis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
This work elucidates that BOLL‐containing aggregate‐mediated translational control is essential for human oogenesis. These aggregates recruit PABPC1 and FXR1 to activate the translation of U‐rich mRNAs encoding cell cycle proteins, thereby ensuring successful meiotic progression.

Cloning and Expression of ace Gene of Vibrio cholerae in Escherichia coli

open access: yesПроблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2012
Accessory cholera enterotoxin (ace) gene of Vibrio cholerae, amplified by PCR, is cloned into the BamHI-HindIII sites using plasmid pQE30. Expression of ace gene is under the control of T5 promotor.

RNF13 is a previously undescribed interactor of iduronate 2‐sulfatase that modifies its glycosylation and maturation

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Iduronate 2‐sulfatase (IDS; purple) is expressed as a precursor protein that goes through multiple steps of maturation, modification, and trafficking to become an active lysosomal enzyme that degrades glycosaminoglycans. Our study shows that the transmembrane ubiquitin ligases RNF13 (orange) and RNF167 (pink) heterodimerize, affecting IDS intracellular

The involvement of tetA and tetE tetracycline resistance genes in plasmid and chromosomal resistance of Aeromonas in Brazilian strains

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2007
This study analyzed the involvement of tetA and tetE genes in the tetracycline resistance of 16 strains of genus Aeromonas, isolated from clinical and food sources. Polymerase chain reactions revealed that 37.5% of the samples were positive for tetA, and

Cleavage of Epstein-Barr virus DNA by restriction endonucleases EcoRI, HindIII and BamI

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 1978
The cleavage of the DNAs of the B95-8 and P3HR-1 virus strains of Epstein-Barr virus by the restriction endonucleases EcoRI, HindIII and BamI was investigated using a new technique for quantitative evaluation of the fluorescence of ethidium stained DNA fragments separated on agarose gels.

Enzymatic synthesis of bioactive quinolones and (thio)coumarins by fungal type III polyketide synthases

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Quinolones are valuable scaffolds for drug discovery but are rare in nature. Here, we show that two fungal enzymes, AthePKS and FerePKS, can generate 2‐quinolones and two additional heteroaromatic scaffolds. Using AthePKS, we designed an artificial enzymatic cascade towards an antimicrobial quinolone from a simple precursor and implemented it in E ...
