Article Synopsis
- The cell cycle is essential for bacterial reproduction and varies based on the growth environment, showing different behaviors during free-living and symbiotic states.
- Key regulators, particularly the DivK kinase CbrA, negatively influence CtrA activity and are crucial for symbiosis; genetic mutations can restore normal cell cycle progression.
- The CckA hybrid histidine kinase, with both kinase and phosphatase functions, plays a significant role in regulating CtrA, highlighting important processes in the cell cycle and symbiotic differentiation of soil bacteria, which are vital for their agricultural relevance.
Every fungal cell is encapsulated in a cell wall, essential for cell viability, morphogenesis, and pathogenesis. Most knowledge of the cell wall composition in fungi has focused on ascomycetes, especially human pathogens, but considerably less is known about early divergent fungal groups, such as species in the Zoopagomycota and Mucoromycota phyla. To shed light on evolutionary changes in the fungal cell wall, we studied the monosaccharide composition of the cell wall of 18 species including early diverging fungi and species in the Basidiomycota and Ascomycota phyla with a focus on those with pathogenic lifestyles and interactions with plants.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFStatement Of Problem: Additive (3-dimensional printing) and subtractive (milling) methods are digital approaches to fabricating zirconia restorations. Comparisons of their resultant fabrication accuracy and restoration fit are lacking.
Purpose: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the accuracy and fit of monolithic zirconia crowns fabricated by 3-dimensional printing and milling.
Background/purpose: Translucent monolithic zirconia restorations have recently introduced. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical behavior and the survival rate of the posterior third-generation monolithic zirconia crowns (MZCs) during three years of clinical service.
Materials And Methods: Twenty-four patients who needed thirty crowns were enrolled in this study.
