Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021–2022

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 213-453, May/June 2025.
Abstract The use of matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022.

The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand adopts a closed conformation that underlies a multi‐modal sensory role in mitochondria

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 7, Page 971-988, April 2025.
We present the first solution structure of the Ca2+‐depleted LETM1 F‐EF‐hand through a D676A/N678A Ca2+ binding‐deficient mutant, revealing a closed hydrophobic cleft caused by a unique F1‐helix pivot. The apo LETM1 F‐EF‐hand exhibits regiospecific hot and cold unfolding, sensitivity to physiological pH changes and potential for promiscuous heterotypic

The Activity of a Thiadiazole on Mycobacterium leprae

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1976
SummaryA new broad-spectrum antimicrobial, 2-amino-5-(l-methyl-5-nitro-2-imi-dazolyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazole, reported inactive against Mycobacterium tuberculosis, inhibited multiplication of M. leprae in the mouse foot pad when administered orally to the mice.

On the age of leprosy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2014
Leprosy is a chronic infection of the skin and nerves caused by Mycobacterium leprae and the newly discovered Mycobacterium lepromatosis. Human leprosy has been documented for millennia in ancient cultures. Recent genomic studies of worldwide M.

Deciphering a Sleeping Pathogen: Uncovering Novel Transcriptional Regulators of Hypoxia-Induced Dormancy in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Along the pathogenesis of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis (MTB), hypoxia-induced dormancy is a process involving the oxygen-depleted environment encountered inside the lung granuloma, where bacilli enter a viable, non-replicating state termed as latency. Affecting nearly two billion people, latent TB can linger in the host for indefinite periods of time ...

Studies of Lipoproteins of Mycobacterium leprae

open access: yesJapanese journal of leprosy, 2004
The deciphering of the genomic sequence of Mycobacterium leprae has made possible to predict the possible lipoproteins. The consensus sequence at the N-terminal region of the protein, including the cysteine residue to which the lipid moiety gets attached, provides a clue to the search.

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Curcuma longa flower extract and antibacterial activity [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Silver nanoparticles (AgNP's) possess inherent biological potentials that have obliged an alternative, eco-friendly, sustainable approach to "Green Synthesis." In the present study, we synthesized Green Silver Nanoparticles (GAgNP's) using Curcuma longa L. (C. longa) flower extract as a reducing and capping agent.

Leprosy on the scalp [PDF]

open access: yesAnais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2016
Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae. This bacillus has a high predilection for skin and peripheral nerves. The scalp’s anatomical properties do not favor the development of such mycobacterium.
