Multiple Hepatic Abscess from : An Emerging Gastrointestinal Microbe.

is an obligate anaerobic bacterium and a known commensal of the human oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract. It is rarely associated with infections outside the oral cavity. Recently it has been isolated as a causative agent in a variety of systemic infections, but it has never been previously identified to cause a hepatic abscess.

The Notch ligand E3 ligase, Mind Bomb1, regulates glutamate receptor localization in Drosophila.

The postsynaptic density (PSD) is a protein-rich network important for the localization of postsynaptic glutamate receptors (GluRs) and for signaling downstream of these receptors. Although hundreds of PSD proteins have been identified, many are functionally uncharacterized. We conducted a reverse genetic screen for mutations that affected GluR localization using Drosophila genes that encode homologs of mammalian PSD proteins.
