Melting of genomic DNA: predictive modeling by nonlinear lattice dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 82, 021905 (2010), 2010
The melting behavior of long, heterogeneous DNA chains is examined within the framework of the nonlinear lattice dynamics based Peyrard-Bishop-Dauxois (PBD) model. Data for the pBR322 plasmid and the complete T7 phage have been used to obtain model fits and determine parameter dependence on salt content.

Mobile genetic elements in Clostridium difficile and their role in genome function. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Approximately 11% the Clostridium difficile genome is made up of mobile genetic elements which have a profound effect on the biology of the organism. This includes transfer of antibiotic resistance and other factors that allow the organism to survive ...

Engineering and Structural Elucidation of a Sac7d‐Derived IgG Fc‐Specific Affitin and Its Application for the Light‐Controlled Affinity Purification of Antibodies

open access: yesChemBioChem, EarlyView.
An affitin derived from the Sac7d scaffold enables the light‐controlled affinity purification of antibodies under physiological conditions, thus overcoming limitations of protein A chromatography. X‐ray crystallographic analysis and affinity measurements reveal complex formation with Fc at the CH2/CH3 junction, similar to protein A/G and FnRn. Combined

The Staphylococci Phages Family: An Overview

open access: yesViruses, 2012
Due to their crucial role in pathogenesis and virulence, phages of Staphylococcus aureus have been extensively studied. Most of them encode and disseminate potent staphylococcal virulence factors.

Targeting the Tumor Microbiota in Cancer Therapy Basing on Nanomaterials

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Intra‐tumoral microbiota, which is a potential component of the tumor microenvironment, has been emerging as a key participant and driving factor in cancer. This article reviews the latest progress in this field, including the microbial community within tumors and its pro‐cancer mechanisms, as well as the anti‐tumor strategies targeting intra‐tumoral ...

Effects of Noise on Ecological Invasion Processes: Bacteriophage-mediated Competition in Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Pathogen-mediated competition, through which an invasive species carrying and transmitting a pathogen can be a superior competitor to a more vulnerable resident species, is one of the principle driving forces influencing biodiversity in nature.

Synthetic Biology‐Based Engineering Living Therapeutics for Antimicrobial Application

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
This perspective highlights synthetic biology‐driven antibacterial strategies, focusing on three innovative approaches: engineered bacteriophages for precision bacterial targeting, reprogrammed microbes that detect quorum‐sensing signals or metabolites to release antimicrobials, and engineering mammalian cells that recognize pathogen‐associated ...

Phage Treatment Trial to Eradicate LA-MRSA from Healthy Carrier Pigs

open access: yesViruses, 2021
The increase of livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA) causes a threat to human health. LA-MRSA can be transmitted from animals to animal caretakers, which may further spread MRSA to communities and health care ...
