The nucleobase analog 4-thiouracil hijacks the pyrimidine salvage pathway to inhibit Staphylococcus aureus growth

Microbiology Spectrum
Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of bacterial-induced mortality due to infections that are increasingly resistant to antibiotics, highlighting the need for new therapeutic strategies to treat these drug-resistant infections.

Assessment of the palatability of Atlantic salmon by NMR spectroscopy

Пищевые системы, 2023
H-NMR spectroscopy was used to study the metabolic profile of Atlantic salmon muscle tissue during heat treatment and storage to assess the taste of products. It has been established that when steaming fish, the amount of compounds such as trimethylamine

TRAF2 binds to TIFA via a novel motif and contributes to its autophagic degradation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TRAF family members couple receptor signalling complexes to downstream outputs, but how they interact with these complexes is not always clear. Here, we show that during ADP‐heptose signalling, TRAF2 binding to TIFA requires two short sequence motifs in the C‐terminal tail of TIFA, which are distinct from the TRAF6 binding motif.

Kappa casein gen (CSN3) in horse: genetic variability in exon 1 and 4

Acta Agriculturae Slovenica, 2006
Kappa casein (κ-CN) is milk protein that determines the size and specific function of the casein micelles, and its clevage by chymosine is responsible for milk coagulation.

The anabolic steroid stanozolol is a potent inhibitor of human MutT homolog 1

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MutT homolog 1 (MTH1) is a member of the NUDIX superfamily of enzymes and is an anticancer drug target. We show that stanozolol (Stz), an anabolic steroid, is an unexpected nanomolar inhibitor of MTH1. The X‐ray crystal structure of the human MTH1–Stz complex reveals a unique binding scaffold that could be utilized for future inhibitor development ...

A machine learning-based strategy to elucidate the identification of antibiotic resistance in bacteria

Frontiers in Antibiotics
Microorganisms, crucial for environmental equilibrium, could be destructive, resulting in detrimental pathophysiology to the human host. Moreover, with the emergence of antibiotic resistance (ABR), the microbial communities pose the century’s largest ...

Thermostable neutral metalloprotease from Geobacillus sp. EA1 does not share thermolysin's preference for substrates with leucine at the P1′ position

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Knowing how proteases recognise preferred substrates facilitates matching proteases to applications. The S1′ pocket of protease EA1 directs cleavage to the N‐terminal side of hydrophobic residues, particularly leucine. The S1′ pocket of thermolysin differs from EA's at only one position (leucine in place of phenylalanine), which decreases cleavage ...

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...
