Engineering Biomimetic Nanoparticle Performance Through Fabrication Method Selection: Turbulent Jet Mixing, Microfluidics, and Extrusion

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Biomimetic nanoparticles (BNPs) combine liposomal biocompatibility with cell‐mimicking functions for targeted delivery. This study compares turbulent jet mixing, microfluidic mixing, and extrusion for BNP fabrication. Characterization, proteomics, and in vitro assays show that turbulent jet and microfluidic mixing produce stable, protein‐enriched ...

Inhibition of Targeted Bacterial Growth Using MazF‐Expressing Phagemids: A Novel Therapeutic Approach Based on Endoribonuclease Toxin Molecules

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extensive and indiscriminate use of antibiotics, which are intended to halt bacterial growth or eliminate them, has unintentionally given rise to antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which is a critical threat to global health. In the pursuit of alternative solutions, researchers have focused on type II toxin–antitoxin systems prevalent within ...

Transcriptional profiling of colicin-induced cell death of Escherichia coli MG1655 identifies potential mechanisms by which bacteriocins promote bacterial diversity [PDF]

, 2004
We report the transcriptional response of Escherichia coli MG1655 to damage induced by colicins E3 and E9, bacteriocins that kill cells through inactivation of the ribosome and degradation of chromosomal DNA, respectively. Colicin E9 strongly induced the

Folding, misfolding, and regulation of intracellular traffic of G protein‐coupled receptors involved in the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background G protein‐coupled receptors are a large and functionally diverse family of membrane receptors involved in a number of biological processes. Like other proteins, G protein‐coupled receptors need to be properly folded in order to traffic to the plasma membrane and interact with agonist.

Toxicity of the Anti-ribosomal Lectin Ebulin f in Lungs and Intestines in Elderly Mice

Toxins, 2015
All parts of dwarf elder (Sambucus ebulus L.) studied so far contain a ribosome-inactivating protein with lectin activity (ribosome-inactivating lectin; RIL), known as ebulin. Green fruits contain ebulin f, the toxicity of which has been studied in six-

The return of metabolism: biochemistry and physiology of glycolysis

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glycolysis is a fundamental metabolic pathway central to the bioenergetics and physiology of virtually all living organisms. In this comprehensive review, we explore the intricate biochemical principles and evolutionary origins of glycolytic pathways, from the classical Embden–Meyerhof–Parnas (EMP) pathway in humans to various prokaryotic and ...

Heterologous plastoquinone production using a newly identified O2‐dependent cyanobacterial hydroxylase

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we confirm that PlqH is the hydroxylase operating in plastoquinone biosynthesis in photosynthetic cyanobacteria (Cyanobacteriia). Our phylogenetic analyses demonstrate that cyanobacterial PlqH homologues originated from hydroxylases involved in ubiquinone biosynthesis in bacteria. Plastoquinone production in Escherichia coli was achieved
