Cells of Escherichia coli Contain a Protein-Tyrosine Kinase, Wzc, and a Phosphotyrosine-Protein Phosphatase, Wzb [PDF]
ABSTRACT Two proteins of Escherichia coli , termed Wzc and Wzb, were analyzed for their capacity to participate in the reversible phosphorylation of proteins on tyrosine. First, Wzc was overproduced from its specific gene and purified to homogeneity by affinity chromatography.

Transient exposure to ampicillin results in restructuring of microbiota to favor oxygen‐tolerant bacteria, whereas osmotic laxative perturbation preserves Bacteriodota. Ampicillin‐ but not laxative‐exposed environment favors establishment of rmpA phase variants that lost hypermucoviscosity but short‐chain fatty acids present in the laxative‐exposed gut

Diversity of capsular polysaccharide gene clusters in Kpc-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae clinical isolates of sequence type 258 involved in the Italian epidemic. [PDF]
Strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing KPC-type beta-lactamases (KPC-Kp) are broadly disseminating worldwide and constitute a major healthcare threat given their extensively drug resistant phenotypes and ability to rapidly disseminate in healthcare ...

Interactive segmentation of membrane and membrane‐mimic densities in cryo‐EM maps
SURFER performs automated segmentation of contextual membrane and membrane‐mimic density in cryo‐EM maps to enable robust separation of macromolecular signal from surrounding detergent or lipid–membrane features. It is conveniently distributed as a plugin for UCSF ChimeraX, allowing interactive application within standard map‐visualization workflows ...

ABSTRACT Motivation The database initiated by the Mountain Invasion Research Network (MIREN) is one of the few globally implemented standardized vegetation surveys in mountains. The focus is on collecting plant species occurrences at 5‐year intervals along and adjacent to mountain roads spanning elevational gradients, with the goal of providing ...

Nuclear dysfunction in aging and neurodegeneration
Abstract Neurodegenerative diseases are characterized by a loss of neuronal function and structure, often in a region‐specific manner. Multiple factors contribute to neuronal dysfunction and death, including pathogenic protein buildup, protein mislocalization, and inflammation. Despite extensive research, the common mechanisms driving neurodegeneration

ABSTRACT Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) has become a global threat due to the convergence of carbapenem resistance and hypervirulence. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) play important roles in bacterial pathogenicity, yet their functional coordination with strains remains unclear.

Illustration of the microenvironment factors driving malignant progression in MPNSTs. ABSTRACT Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is characterized by the development of benign plexiform neurofibromas (PNFs). In 10%–15% of patients, these tumors undergo malignant transformation into aggressive malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs).

ABSTRACT Metal oxide semiconductor‐supported noble metal nanoparticles are common sensing materials for gas sensors. However, the large size and their tendency to migrate at high temperatures often lead to inferior sensing sensitivity and stability. Herein, a salt‐assistant strategy is developed to prepare fully‐exposed Ir clusters on SnO2 nanorods ...
