Ribonucleolytic activity of mycoplasmas

open access: yes, 2020
Mycoplasmas are incapable of de novo synthesis of nucleotides and must therefore secrete nucleases in order to replenish the pool of nucleic acid precursors. The nucleolytic activity of mycoplasmas is an important factor in their pathogenicity. Bacterial

Overcoming platinum resistance by the disulfiram metabolite CuET in novel preclinical models of human carcinomas

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cisplatin‐resistant cancer cells survive DNA‐damaging platinum‐based treatment yet remain sensitive to CuET‐induced proteotoxic stress. The distinct mechanism of action allows CuET to overcome and eliminate cisplatin‐resistant tumour cells, unless highly expressed metallothioneins (MTs) interfere with CuET, thereby highlighting MT levels as candidate ...

Optimizing photoactivation of PA‐mCherry for optical pooled CRISPR screens

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Photoactivatable PA‐mCherry finds widespread use to optically tag individual cells. However, confocal 405 nm UV laser‐scanning (normal scan) is much less efficient than widefield UV illumination, limiting the use of PA‐mCherry on confocal instruments. We remedy this limitation by reporting that rapid and repeated confocal scanning with a low‐intensity,

Frequency of vaginal conditional-pathogenic microflora dependency from age in conditions of normocenosis and disbiosis

open access: yesJournal of Education, Health and Sport, 2017
298 patients aged 16-64 years were examined who excluded the presence of pathogenic microflora; Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in real time investigated the biocenosis of the vagina.

Unraveling the hidden universe of small proteins in bacterial genomes

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2019
Identification of small open reading frames (smORFs) encoding small proteins (≤ 100 amino acids; SEPs) is a challenge in the fields of genome annotation and protein discovery.

Aquaporin‐3 and aquaporin‐5 impact the development of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma spheroids

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of the role of aquaporin‐3 (AQP3) and aquaporin‐5 (AQP5) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Both proteins are upregulated in PDAC and are associated with tumor progression and metastatic potential. Silencing AQP3 or AQP5 in PDAC spheroids results in decreased diameter, area, and overall growth, underscoring their key ...

Mycoplasmas in swine

open access: yes, 2020
Swine can be infected with different mycoplasmas. Some of them are important pathogens, causing significant health and welfare issues in pigs and major losses to the swine industry worldwide.

Comparison of the new Mycofast Revolution assay with a molecular assay for the detection of genital mycoplasmas from clinical specimens  [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Genital mycoplasmas are opportunistic bacteria that are associated with undesirable gynaecologic and reproductive events. Mycoplasmas are fastidious bacteria with increasing resistance to routine antimicrobials and often fail to grow on ...

Evaluating the involvement of autolysosomes in the nuclear translocation of fluorescent proteins

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Endogenously expressed fluorescent proteins can be degraded by autophagy and transported to cell nuclei via the nuclear pore complex. But in some cell lines, for example, HeLa cells which are positive for immunoreactivity of a receptor ligand, such as UCN I, in cell nuclei, fusion of autolysosome with the nuclear envelope is involved in the nuclear ...

Mycoplasma - contamination of cell cultures

open access: yesБиопрепараты: Профилактика, диагностика, лечение, 2018
The safety of biological products derived from animal cells is associated with the properties of the cells themselves or their components, as well as with the possible presence of contaminants of microbial and viral origin.
