Advancing Maternal Health with Long‐Acting Therapeutics: Priorities, Efficacy and Safety Considerations, and Emerging Technologies

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Maternal health remains a critical global concern, particularly in underserved populations and in low‐ and middle‐income countries where access to safe and effective therapeutics is limited. Despite the use of medications by most women during pregnancy, the exclusion of pregnant and lactating women from clinical trials has resulted in significant data ...

Substrate specificity of Ty1 integrase [PDF]

Journal of Virology, 1995
Integration of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae retrotransposon Ty1 requires the element-encoded integrase (IN) protein, which is a component of cytoplasmic virus-like particles (VLPs). Using purified recombinant Ty1 IN and an oligonucleotide integration assay based on Ty1 long terminal repeat sequences, we have compared IN activity on substrates having ...

Diversity, transfer potential, and transcriptional activity of virus‐carried antibiotic resistance genes in global estuaries

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Estuaries are vital hotspots for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) due to substantial antibiotic pollution. Although viruses have been proposed as key reservoirs and important disseminators of ARGs in environments, their contribution to the estuarine antibiotic resistome remains largely unknown.

Clinical use of HIV integrase inhibitors: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundOptimal regimen choice of antiretroviral therapy is essential to achieve long-term clinical success. Integrase inhibitors have swiftly been adopted as part of current antiretroviral regimens. The purpose of this study was to review the evidence

Control of serine integrase recombination directionality by fusion with the directionality factor

Nucleic Acids Research, 2017
Bacteriophage serine integrases are extensively used in biotechnology and synthetic biology for assembly and rearrangement of DNA sequences. Serine integrases promote recombination between two different DNA sites, attP and attB, to form recombinant attL ...

Retroviral integrases and their cousins [PDF]

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 1996
The recently determined structures of the catalytic domains of HIV integrase, avian sarcoma virus integrase and the Mu transposase are strikingly similar to each other and also exhibit significant similarity to several nucleases. All these enzymes of cut polynucleotides, leaving 3'OH and 5'PO4 groups. The integrase and transposase also possess a strand-

Rhizosphere microbial detoxification and phosphorus solubilization drive ecological remediation of Pb–Zn contaminated soils

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Heavy metal contamination of soils poses a serious threat to ecosystem health and food security worldwide. This study investigated how native plants, such as Artemisia annua and Buddleja davidii, interact with soil microbes in Pb–Zn waste slag areas. We found that these plants stimulate microbes, which improve phosphorus availability and reduce metal ...

GCN2 phosphorylates HIV-1 integrase and decreases HIV-1 replication by limiting viral integration

Scientific Reports, 2017
GCN2 is a serine/threonine kinase involved in cellular stress response related to amino acid starvation. Previously, we showed that GCN2 interacts with HIV-1 integrase and is activated during HIV-1 infection.

Adaptation of the invasive pest Drosophila suzukii to a specialized nutritional niche

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Unlike most Drosophila larvae that feed on spoiled food, Drosophila suzukii larvae thrive on ripening fruits and consequently face a low‐protein, high‐carbohydrate nutritional challenge. Comparisons of growth among D. suzukii, D. biarmipes, and D. melanogaster larvae across diets with varying protein‐to‐carbohydrate ratios demonstrate that D.
