Flow-based determination of total mercury in waters by flameless atomic absorption spectrometry

open access: yesO Mundo da Saúde
A flow injection analyzer is proposed for total mercury determination in natural waters by flameless atomic absorption spectrometry. Following a 30-min wet digestion with nitric acid under 90°C, in a closed Teflon vessel, a sample aliquot is inserted ...

The correlation between fish mercury liver/muscle ratio and high and low levels of mercury contamination in Czech localities

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2013
The aim of our study was to divide selective Czech locations into sites that were either heavily or lightly contaminated with mercury on the basis of results of the total mercury liver/muscle ratio in fish.

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Mercury sources and bioavailability in lakes located in the mining district of Chibougamau, eastern Canada [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The presence of Hg in the fish of the lakes from the Cu–Zn–Au mining region of Chibougamau (Canada) represents a serious source of concern for the health of local sports and subsistence fishers. This study focuses on identifying the origin of Hg present

Mutant NPM1 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Initiation and Maintenance

open access: yesAging and Cancer, EarlyView.
NPM1 mutations drive acute myeloid leukemia by acting as neomorphic transcriptional regulators that cooperate with Menin–MLL and XPO1 to sustain HOX/MEIS1 expression and block differentiation. Targeting these mutant‐specific transcriptional dependencies provides a rational therapeutic strategy for NPM1‐mutated AML.

Early Clinical, Imaging, and Pathological Characteristics of SRPK3/TTN‐Digenic Myopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy was recently established as a skeletal muscle myopathy caused by digenic inheritance. This study characterizes the early clinical presentation of SRPK3/TTN‐digenic myopathy in one previously reported and seven newly identified pediatric patients.
