Current Status of Omics in Biological Quality Elements for Freshwater Biomonitoring.

Freshwater ecosystems have been experiencing various forms of threats, mainly since the last century. The severity of this adverse scenario presents unprecedented challenges to human health, water supply, agriculture, forestry, ecological systems, and biodiversity, among other areas. Despite the progress made in various biomonitoring techniques tailored to specific countries and biotic communities, significant constraints exist, particularly in assessing and quantifying biodiversity and its interplay with detrimental factors.

In Silico Design of a Chimeric Humanized L-asparaginase.

Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer among children worldwide, characterized by an overproduction of undifferentiated lymphoblasts in the bone marrow. The treatment of choice for this disease is the enzyme L-asparaginase (ASNase) from bacterial sources. ASNase hydrolyzes circulating L-asparagine in plasma, leading to starvation of leukemic cells.

Bacitracin is a non-competitive inhibitor of porcine M1 family neutral and glutamyl aminopeptidases.

Membrane alanyl and glutamyl aminopeptidases (APN and APA, respectively) are established targets for the development of biomedical tools in human pathologies. APN overexpression correlates with the progression of tumours, including melanoma. Bacitracin, widely used as a topical antibiotic, inhibits subtilisin-like serine peptidases and disulphide isomerases.
