Characterization of fungal carbonyl sulfide hydrolase belonging to clade D β‐carbonic anhydrase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Here, we performed a functional analysis of the fungal enzymes belonging to clade D of the β‐class carbonic anhydrase family (β‐D‐CA). The β‐D‐CAs in the basidiomycete Gloeophyllum trabeum and the ascomycete Trichoderma harzianum showed very low activity in the hydration of CO2 but exhibited high activity in the hydrolysis of carbonyl sulfide (COS ...

New Microbes and New Infections, EarlyView., 2014 Abstract We describe a case of fungal keratitis due to Beauveria bassiana in a farmer with Fuchs' dystrophy, treated with amphotericin B. Surgery with penetrating keratoplasty was necessary to resolve the lesions. Susceptibility testing and molecular sequencing permitted the identification and treatment of this rare aetiological agent of invasive ...

The clinical spectrum of SMA‐PME and in vitro normalization of its cellular ceramide profile
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1941-1952, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objective The objectives of this study were to define the clinical and biochemical spectrum of spinal muscular atrophy with progressive myoclonic epilepsy (SMA‐PME) and to determine if aberrant cellular ceramide accumulation could be normalized by enzyme replacement.

Quantifying Collection Lag in European Modern and Contemporary Art Museums [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Museum collection strategies are governed by a variety of factors, including topical focus, acquisition funds, availability of works in the art market, donations and specific coincidental opportunities. Yet, it remains unclear if more fundamental collection patterns emerge, exist, and are shared between museums, which could for example allow an ...

"He knows me...but not at the museum": women, natural history collecting and museums, 1880-1914 [PDF]
, 2012 This article examines women collectors of natural history during the period 1880-1914, their natural history practices, and their relationships with museums. It suggests that for women natural history collections could be used to create and modify gender

Critic's Choice Essay: "Support Your Local Herbarium" [PDF]
, 2021 Are herbaria becoming threatened and endangered? Are natural science collections going extinct? These questions are being posed increasingly by amateur and professional biologists as we witness the closure, dispersion, and scaling back of natural history

Natural History Collections as Inspiration for Technology
BioEssays, 2019 Living organisms are the ultimate survivalists, having evolved phenotypes with unprecedented adaptability, ingenuity, resourcefulness, and versatility compared to human technology. To harness these properties, functional descriptions and design principles from all sources of biodiversity information must be collated − including the hundreds of ...

Functional variation among LPMOs revealed by the inhibitory effects of cyanide and buffer ions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study addresses the inhibition of lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) by cyanide and explains how and why the magnitude of observed inhibitory effects depends on the way LPMO reactions are setup and on the type of LPMO. Enzymes known as lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are mono‐copper polysaccharide‐degrading peroxygenases that ...

Recognizing early MRI signs (or their absence) is crucial in diagnosing metachromatic leukodystrophy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1999-2009, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives Metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD) has characteristic white matter (WM) changes on brain MRI, which often trigger biochemical and genetic confirmation of the diagnosis. In early or pre‐symptomatic disease stages, these typical MRI changes might be absent, hampering early diagnosis.
