Article Synopsis
  • * Data were analyzed from 473 mothers who delivered full-term infants, assessing fetal measurements and neonatal outcomes like ICU admission and hypoglycemia.
  • * Results showed that a head-to-abdominal circumference ratio of less than 0.95 and a difference of at least 2.5 cm were significantly linked to neonatal hypoglycemia, particularly in the PGDM group, with no significant findings in normal pregnancies.

Article Synopsis
  • Korean winter hazel, endemic to South Korea, is an ornamental plant that also grows in China and Japan, but it was found displaying symptoms of a rust disease in July 2022 at Jirisan National Park.
  • The rust disease was characterized by specific fungal structures: pale brown or orange-yellow spermogonia and yellow aecia that resembled small galls, with detailed measurements provided for both structures.
  • In December 2022, brown telia were found on Sasa borealis leaves, matching descriptions of the disease caused by the fungus Puccinia sasicola, with further research involving genomic DNA extraction for phylogenetic analysis.

As defined by the N-degron pathway, single N-terminal (Nt) amino acids can function as N-degrons that induce the degradation of proteins and other biological materials. Central to this pathway is the selective recognition of N-degrons by cognate N-recognins that direct the substrates to either the ubiquitin (Ub)-proteasome system (UPS) or autophagy-lysosome pathway (ALP). Eukaryotic cells have developed diverse pathways to utilize all 20 amino acids in the genetic code as pro-N-degrons or N-degrons which can be generated through endoproteolytic cleavage or post-translational modifications.

In this study, we aimed to screen antagonistic microorganisms against , the causal agent of bacterial fruit blotch, which is known to induce sever diseases in cucurbit crops. From 240 bacterial strains isolated, only one unknown bacterial isolate, named YM002, showed significant antagonistic activity against . KACC17909.
