The intestinal Stenotrophomonas maltophilia ZG-GX enhances the resistance of Spodoptera frugiperda to beta-cypermethrin and decreases the amino acid levels

Microbiology Spectrum
Spodoptera frugiperda is an invasive agricultural pest with a high tolerance for chemical insecticides. An increasing number of studies have reported that intestinal microbes of insects can affect host resistance to insecticides. Therefore, in this study,

Expression, Purification, and Microscopy‐Based Assays for Engineered Recombinant Tyrosinated, Detyrosinated, and Δ2 Human Tubulin

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microtubules are noncovalent polymers assembled from α/β tubulin dimers. Their structure, dynamics and interaction with effectors are regulated through the expression of diverse tubulin isotypes and chemically diverse posttranslational modifications, also known as the “tubulin code.” Understanding the biophysical correlates between tubulin ...
