Protective immune response against Rhodococcus equi: An innate immunity‐focused review
Abstract Rhodococcus equi causes pyogranulomatous pneumonia in foals and immunocompromised people. Despite decades of research efforts, no vaccine is available against this common cause of disease and death in foals. The purpose of this narrative review is to summarise the current understanding of interactions between R. equi and the host innate immune

Disorganized thalamic subregional functional connectivity in bipolar I disorder
FIGURE 1 Flowchart of inclusion and exclusion criteria, and resting‐state functional connectivity (FC) analysis of subcortical regions and thalamic subregions. A total of 151 participants were enrolled. All participants were scanned with high‐resolution MRI. After data collection, preprocessing and seed‐based FC analysis were then performed.

Automated discovery and phylogenetic analysis of new toxin-antitoxin systems
Background Although often viewed as elements "at the service of" bacteria, plasmids exhibit replication and maintenance mechanisms that make them purely "selfish DNA" candidates.

In this study, the genome of a new thermophilic cyanobacterium, Thermosynechococcaceae cyanobacterium sp. Okahandja, isolated from a hot spring near Okahandja in Namibia, was sequenced. Additionally, cultivations were conducted at elevated temperatures of 40, 50, and 55°C, followed by analyses of the respective adapted proteomes based on the annotated ...

Crystal structure of proteolyzed VapBC and DNA‐bound VapBC from Salmonella enterica Typhimurium LT2 and VapC as a putative Ca 2+ ‐dependent ribonuclease [PDF]
Abstract Bacterial toxin‐antitoxin (TA) system has gained attention for its essential roles in cellular maintenance and survival under harsh environmental conditions such as nutrient deficiency and antibiotic treatment. There are at least 14 TA systems in Salmonella enterica

The Great Codon Escape: Vacating Codons for Genetic Code Expansion and Ribosome Stalling
Abstract In ribosomal synthesis of peptides and proteins, genetic information is translated into an amino acid polymer according to the genetic code, which describes the translational command encoded by each codon. However, parts of the genetic code can be adjusted to customize translations.

Summary When abruptly exposed to toxic levels of hexavalent uranium, the extremely thermoacidophilic archaeon Metallosphaera prunae , originally isolated from an abandoned uranium mine, ceased to grow, and concomitantly exhibited heightened levels of cytosolic ribonuclease ...

Abstract Background Immunosuppression reduction for BK polyoma virus (BKV) must be balanced against risk of adverse alloimmune outcomes. We sought to characterize risk of alloimmune events after BKV within context of HLA‐DR/DQ molecular mismatch (mMM) risk score.
