Phosphomonoesters are important biosynthetic and energy metabolism intermediates in microorganisms. A comprehensive analysis of phosphomonoester metabolites is of great significance for the understanding of their metabolic phosphorylation process and inner mechanism. In this study, we established a pair of isotope reagent /-2-diazomethyl--methyl-phenyl benzamide-labeling-based LC-MS method for the comprehensive analysis of phosphomonoester metabolites.

Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM), also known as idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM), is a chronic inflammatory lesion of the breast. The incidence of GLM has been increasing in recent years, especially among young women. The etiologies of GLM have not been fully elucidated but are associated with autoimmunity and bacterial infection.

The high-resolution and accurate typing of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is of great significance for the study of tissue matching in organ transplantation and the correlation between HLA and disease. In this study, the peripheral blood of 12 patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma was used to compare the advantages and disadvantages of the next- and third-generation sequencing technology for high-resolution HLA typing. In addition, probe capture technology was used to capture the MHC region of YH and HeLa standard cell lines, and a primary hepatocellular carcinoma patient.

Article Synopsis
  • Biodiesel is a renewable biofuel derived mainly from plant oil through a process called transesterification, but the first generation has several drawbacks in terms of properties and production.
  • Recent advancements in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering allow researchers to engineer microbes to produce a second generation of biodiesel—long chain hydrocarbons—which offer improved properties and quality.
  • The review highlights the progress in microbial production of advanced biodiesel while discussing existing deficiencies and potential future developments in this field.
