Restriction modification protein subunits increased at peak infection times.
Bars indicate normalized spectral counts averaged between two technical replicates and lines are optical density measurements taken at each time point. Untreated cells MOI = 0, green bars and lines, infected cells at MOI = 0, maroon bars and lines, and ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

ATPase activity of the type IC restriction-modification system EcoR124II.
We have investigated the ATPase activity of the type IC restriction-modification (R-M) system EcoR124II. As with all type I R-M systems EcoR 124II requires ATP hydrolysis to cut DNA. We determined the KM for ATP to be 10(-5) to 10(-4) M. By measuring ATP

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Neisseria meningitidis is a gram-negative bacterium that may cause meningitis, sepsis, or both. The increase in the incidence of meningococcal disease in various countries in the past 2 decades is mainly due the genotypically related lineage III ...

Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

Cloned restriction/modification system from Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
DNA fragments from Pseudomonas aeruginosa carrying the PaeR7 restriction/modification genes have been cloned in the plasmid vector pBR322 and propagated in Escherichia coli.

Bacterial autoimmunity due to a restriction-modification system
Restriction-modification (RM) systems represent a minimal and ubiquitous biological system of self/non-self discrimination in prokaryotes [1], which protects hosts from exogenous DNA [2]. The mechanism is based on the balance between methyltransferase (M)

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
