C-terminal–mediated modulation of Holin function from bacteriophage K: implications for phage-derived antimicrobial design

Among phage-derived antimicrobial molecules, holins are membrane-active proteins that play a central role in bacterial lysis; however, the contribution of their individual structural domains to antibacterial activity remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the functional role of the extended C-termina...

Comparative study of fresh and cryopreserved rat mesenchymal stem cells: cell viability, immunological gene expression, and cytokine production

Cryopreservation is fundamental for mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) banking, but the freeze–thaw cycle induces sub-cellular stress, potentially modifying the post-thaw genomic and paracrine identity of the cellular product. This study aimed to compare the biological, molecular, and functional stability of fresh and cryopre...

Electrokinetic Enrichment and Purification of Proteins and Anions from High-salt Samples on Liquid Plasticine-Based Open Chip

Microfluidic chips are promising for on-site analysis in medical diagnostics and food safety because they enable miniaturized, integrated sample processing. However, the analysis of complex, salt-rich matrices of biological and food samples remain challenging for conventional closed chips and electrokinetic pretreatm...

Biological Information Processing and Late-Time Cosmic Acceleration

Abstract: This study presents a testable quantum-informational and biophysical framework to resolve two of the most fundamental crises in theoretical physics and observational cosmology: the Cosmological Constant Catastrophe ($10^{120}$ discrepancy) and the late-time cosmic acceleration transition ($z \approx 0.5$). Mo...

Comparative characterization of candidal cell surface-associated phosphoglycerate mutase (Gpm1) - fungal cell wall adsorption and host protein binding across pathogenic Candida species.

Findings support a conserved capacity of selected classical adhesins to serve as candidate docking partners for exogenous Gpm1 and demonstrate the ability of surface-associated Gpm1 to interact with the host contact system components across pathogenic yeasts.

Adhesion‐Enhanced Engineered Probiotic for Prolonged Intestinal Retention and Calprotectin‐Responsive IBD Therapy

A surface display strategy is utilized to construct an adhesion‐enhanced Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 chassis that effectively alleviates inflammation, restores epithelial barrier integrity, and reverses oxidative damage in both prophylactic and therapeutic murine colitis models.

A Novel Reporter Mouse for Astrocyte-Derived Extracellular Vesicles Reveals Enrichment of Cargo at Neuronal Mitochondria.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate intercellular transfer of lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids between cell types. We previously showed that astrocyte-derived EVs modulate neuronal mitochondria in vitro. Whether endogenous astrocytic EVs associate with neuronal mitochondria in vivo remained unknown. To address this...

A combinatorial construct library enables an expanded expression range of secreted therapeutic proteins by probiotic yeast.

A 125-plex Sb secretion construct library was developed consisting of all possible combinations of five promoters, five secretion signals, and five terminators, which enabled a greater than 1800-fold range in Sb expression of a Gaussia luciferase (GLuc) reporter.
