The mycomembrane of mycobacteria has long been regarded as the primary barrier to the accumulation of molecules within these bacteria. Understanding accumulation beyond the mycomembrane of ( ) is crucial for developing effective antimycobacterial agents. This study investigates two design principles commonly found in natural products and mammalian cell-permeable peptides - backbone -methylation and macrocyclization - aimed at enhancing accumulation.

Many prehospital and perioperative haemorrhage control strategies and techniques have been available to clinicians for multiple decades, yet our understanding and utilisation of these practices continues to be refined and optimised. There is a particular focus in this article on issues related to resuscitation and coagulation in trauma.

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) established the Bioinformatics Resource Centers (BRC) to assist researchers with their analysis of genome sequence and other omics-related data. Recently, the PAThosystems Resource Integration Center (PATRIC), the Influenza Research Database (IRD), and the Virus Pathogen Database and Analysis Resource (ViPR) BRCs merged to form the Bacterial and Viral Bioinformatics Resource Center (BV-BRC) at https://www.
