Molecular structure and nickel‐binding capacity of Proteus mirabilis UreE

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
This study presents a 2.0 Å resolution crystal structure and determined the nickel‐binding capacity of the P. mirabilis nickel chaperone UreE. UreE is essential for the delivery of nickel to the metalloenzyme urease, which is key for the ability of P. mirabilis to cause urinary‐tract infections.UreE is a nickel chaperone that is required for the safe ...

Inhibition of Targeted Bacterial Growth Using MazF‐Expressing Phagemids: A Novel Therapeutic Approach Based on Endoribonuclease Toxin Molecules

open access: yesMicrobiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extensive and indiscriminate use of antibiotics, which are intended to halt bacterial growth or eliminate them, has unintentionally given rise to antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which is a critical threat to global health. In the pursuit of alternative solutions, researchers have focused on type II toxin–antitoxin systems prevalent within ...

Overexpression of Escherichia coli yaiX Confers Multidrug Resistance and Enhances Virulence in the Silkworm Infection Model

open access: yesMicrobiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The emergence of bacteria with both antimicrobial resistance and high virulence has become a global health concern, underscoring the urgent need to elucidate the molecular basis underlying these traits. Here, we employed the silkworm (Bombyx mori) infection model, which is suitable for high‐throughput screening, together with an Escherichia ...

Insights from controlled, comparative experiments highlight the limitations of using BSMV and FoMV for virus‐enabled reverse genetics in rice

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
Virus‐enabled reverse genetics (VERG) enables transient gene expression modulation in plants but its efficacy varies across species. We evaluated the efficacy of barley stripe mosaic virus (BSMV) and foxtail mosaic virus (FoMV) for virus‐induced gene silencing (VIGS) and virus‐mediated overexpression (VOX) in rice (Oryza sativa).

Structural Basis for Trivalent Cross‐Linking of a Patient‐Derived IgE Antibody by the Major Peanut Allergen Ara h 2.0201

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Graphical The crystal structure of a major peanut allergen Ara h 2.0201 in a complex with a human‐derived IgE Fab fragment has been determined. The immunocomplex shows the trivalent binding of Fabs, creating a cross‐linked structure effective in the formation of large complexes on the surface of effector cells. Hydroxylation of proline has implications
