Article Synopsis
- * Acetic acid poses a major challenge for yeast cell factories used in biorefinery, necessitating the creation of acetic acid-tolerant strains.
- * The chapter outlines a methodology for building a TF-based biosensor utilizing the Haa1 TF in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, offering protocols for design, construction, and characterization, which can be adapted for sensing other molecules with suitable TFs.
Background And Aims: Cirrhosis entails high risk of serious infections and abated efficiency of vaccination, but the underlying mechanisms are only partially understood. This study aimed at characterizing innate and adaptive immune functions, including antigen-specific T cell responses to COVID-19 vaccination, in patients with compensated and decompensated cirrhosis.
Methods: Immune phenotype and function in peripheral blood from 42 cirrhotic patients and 44 age-matched healthy controls were analysed after two doses of the mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccines [BNT162b2 (Pfizer BioNTech) or mRNA-1273 (Moderna)].
