Penicillin-Binding Proteins in Leptospira interrogans [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2001
ABSTRACT The Leptospira interrogans ponA and pbpB genes were isolated and characterized. ponA and pbpB encode the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) 1 and 3, respectively.

TRAIL‐PEG‐Apt‐PLGA nanosystem as an aptamer‐targeted drug delivery system potential for triple‐negative breast cancer therapy using in vivo mouse model

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aptamers are used both therapeutically and as targeting agents in cancer treatment. We developed an aptamer‐targeted PLGA–TRAIL nanosystem that exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy in NOD/SCID breast cancer models. This nanosystem represents a novel biotechnological drug candidate for suppressing resistance development in breast cancer.

The porin and the permeating antibiotic: A selective diffusion barrier in gram-negative bacteria [PDF]

, 2008
Gram-negative bacteria are responsible for a large proportion of antibiotic resistant bacterial diseases. These bacteria have a complex cell envelope that comprises an outer membrane and an inner membrane that delimit the periplasm.

The PI3Kδ inhibitor roginolisib (IOA‐244) preserves T‐cell function and activity

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Identification of novel PI3K inhibitors with limited immune‐related adverse effects is highly sought after. We found that roginolisib and idelalisib inhibit chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells and Treg suppressive functions to similar extents, but roginolisib affects cytotoxic T‐cell function and promotion of pro‐inflammatory T helper subsets to a

Penicillin-binding proteins in Bacillus subtilis mutants [PDF]

Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1982
The penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) from mutants of Bacillus subtilis were studied and related to morphology. In a previously described cloxacillin-resistant mutant of B. subtilis strain Porton, PBP 2a had an altered mobility by sodium dodecyl sulfate gel electrophoresis and was present in increased amounts.

Colorectal cancer‐derived FGF19 is a metabolically active serum biomarker that exerts enteroendocrine effects on mouse liver

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Meta‐transcriptome analysis identified FGF19 as a peptide enteroendocrine hormone associated with colorectal cancer prognosis. In vivo xenograft models showed release of FGF19 into the blood at levels that correlated with tumor volumes. Tumoral‐FGF19 altered murine liver metabolism through FGFR4, thereby reducing bile acid synthesis and increasing ...

MCM8-9 complex promotes resection of double-strand break ends by MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 complex. [PDF]

, 2015
MCM8-9 complex is required for homologous recombination (HR)-mediated repair of double-strand breaks (DSBs). Here we report that MCM8-9 is required for DNA resection by MRN (MRE11-RAD50-NBS1) at DSBs to generate ssDNA.

Subtype‐specific enhancer RNAs define transcriptional regulators and prognosis in breast cancers

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study employed machine learning methodologies to perform the subtype‐specific classification of RNA‐seq data sets, which are mapped on enhancers from TCGA‐derived breast cancer patients. Their integration with gene expression (referred to as ProxCReAM eRNAs) and chromatin accessibility profiles has the potential to identify lineage‐specific and ...

Diversity of Penicillin-binding Proteins [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2007
Antibiotic-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a major concern to public health. Methicillin-resistant S. aureus strains are completely resistant to all β-lactams antibiotics. One of the main factors involved in methicillin resistance in S. aureus is the penicillin-binding protein, PBP2a.
