The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Nasopharyngeal carriage and risk factors of major meningitis pathogens among asymptomatic healthcare workers in paediatric units in Benin, with serogroup distribution of Neisseria meningitidis

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases
Background Healthcare workers in paediatric settings are in close contact with vulnerable children and may serve as reservoirs and vectors for the transmission of respiratory pathogens such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria meningitidis, and ...

Evaluation of molecular typing and serological methods in solving discrepant results of weak and partial D (Rh) in South Egypt

open access: yesAsian Journal of Transfusion Science, 2019
INTRODUCTION: Rh discrepancies produced by partial and weak D phenotypes are a problem during routine testing. Some blood units with weak and partial D expression may be missed by serology.

Multiple Locus Variable number of tandem repeat Analysis : a molecular genotyping tool for Paenibacillus larvae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
American Foulbrood, caused by Paenibacillus larvae, is the most severe bacterial disease of honey bees (Apis mellifera). To perform genotyping of P.larvae in an epidemiological context, there is a need of a fast and cheap method with a high resolution ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Toxicity of Oils Extracted From the Arils of Blighia sapida (K.D. Koenig) in Wistar Rats

open access: yesBiochemistry Research International
Blighia sapida oil, a substance with a rich history of use for its nutritional, therapeutic, traditional, and cosmetic benefits, was the focus of our study. We investigated the impact of consuming edible oil from B. sapida arils on Wistar rats. The crude

Molecular genetics of adult‐type hypolactasia

open access: yesAnnals of Medicine, 2005
Adult-type hypolactasia (lactase non-persistence; primary lactose malabsorption) is characterized by the down-regulation of the lactase enzyme activity in the intestinal wall after weaning. The down-regulation is genetically determined and a mutation has occurred that has made part of mankind tolerate milk (lactase persistence).

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Molecular epidemiology of endemic Clostridium difficile infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This is the first study to provide a comprehensive insight into the molecular epidemiology of endemic Clostridium difficile and particularly that associated with a recently recognized epidemic strain. We DNA fingerprinted all C.
