Multifunctional Properties of Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) Essential Oil: Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm, and Insecticidal Effects

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
Unveiling the potential of Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) essential oil. ABSTRACT This study investigated the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and insecticidal properties of wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens L.) essential oil (GPEO). The EO was chemically characterized by GC–MS, confirming methyl salicylate as the predominant compound (99.3%).

An Unfolding Story: AlphaFold's View on Protein Flexibility

Helvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
AlphaFold confidence measures allow for detailed proteome‐wide characterization of protein flexibility. All flexibility measures increased substantially in the evolutionary transition from prokaryota to eukaryota. ABSTRACT The AlphaFold confidence measures are related to conformation distribution of the protein.

High polyketide synthase gene expression boosts pathogenicity of Klebsiella pneumoniae in the digestive infection

Scientific Reports
The pathogenicity of Klebsiella pneumoniae is continuously on the rise owing to variations in virulence. The polyketide synthase (pks) gene plays a crucial role in the expression of microbial virulence genes.
