A rise in the frequency of lasR mutant Pseudomonas aeruginosa among keratitis isolates between 1993 and 2021

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionPseudomonas aeruginosa causes vision threatening keratitis. The LasR transcription factor regulates virulence factors in response to the quorum sensing molecule N-3-oxo-dodecanoyl-L-homoserine lactone. P.

Cis-Allosteric Regulation of HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase by Integrase

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Reverse transcriptase (RT) and integrase (IN) are encoded tandemly in the pol genes of retroviruses. We reported recently that HIV-1 RT and IN need to be supplied as the pol precursor intermediates, in which RT and IN are in fusion form (RTIN) to exert ...

Proteases as therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2011
Proteases are an expanding class of drugs that hold great promise. The U.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has approved 12 protease therapies, and a number of next generation or completely new proteases are in clinical development. Although they are a well-recognized class of targets for inhibitors, proteases themselves have not typically been ...

Dermatophyte infection: from fungal pathogenicity to host immune responses

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Dermatophytosis is a common superficial infection caused by dermatophytes, a group of pathogenic keratinophilic fungi. Apart from invasion against skin barrier, host immune responses to dermatophytes could also lead to pathologic inflammation and tissue ...

Proteases, Protease-Activated Receptors, and Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2018
Coagulation activation by the TF (tissue factor) pathway plays pivotal roles in triggering platelets and precipitating acute coronary syndromes. Although dual antiplatelet therapy is effective in secondary cardiovascular prevention, combining platelet antagonism with low-dose aspirin and the oral coagulation FXa antagonist rivaroxaban has a synergistic
