Glucose binding can alter protein oligomerization to enable differentiation. Here, we demonstrate that glucose binding is a general capacity of DExD/H-box RNA helicases, including DDX50, which was found to be essential for the differentiation of diverse cell types. Glucose binding to conserved DDX50 ATP binding sequences altered protein conformation and dissociated DDX50 dimers.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFAcute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) secondary to chlorine gas inhalation is a rare yet critical condition that can lead to severe respiratory failure if not managed promptly. This case report presents a 43-year-old male who developed ARDS after accidental exposure to chlorine gas during pool maintenance. The patient's condition deteriorated rapidly, with symptoms progressing to acute pulmonary edema and severe hypoxemia, requiring immediate transfer to the intensive care unit (ICU).
