Transition Metals and Virulence in Bacteria.
Annual Review of Genetics, 2016 Transition metals are required trace elements for all forms of life. Due to their unique inorganic and redox properties, transition metals serve as cofactors for enzymes and other proteins. In bacterial pathogenesis, the vertebrate host represents a rich

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) employs a cap‐independent (CI) translation strategy to evade host translational shutoff. During the shut‐off of host cellular canonical translation, DEAD‐box protein 3 (DDX3) bind to JEV UTRs to establish a closed‐loop architecture, and its interaction with poly(A)‐binding protein 1 (PABP1) to form DDX3/PABP1/eIF4G ...

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Ultrathin rhodium–antimony alloy nanoflowers with unconventional 2H phase were controllably synthesized via a facile one‐pot method. Benefitting from the enhanced electronic interaction by p–d orbital coupling, the prepared catalyst delivered an efficient ammonia electrosynthesis capacity in neutral media.

Epidemiological and genomic analysis of Acinetobacter baumannii strains from retailed raw meat
HeliyonAcinetobacter baumannii causes hospital-acquired infections in human patients with compromised immune system. Strains associated to nosocomial infections are often resistant to carbapenems and belong to few international clones (IC1-11). A.
