Impact of aluminium ions on the translation process in mice liver, kidney, skeletal muscle and heart was investigated in vivo as well as on the protein synthesis in liver cell-free translation system in vitro. We find that at early stages of intoxication the effect of aluminium ions on protein synthesis in muscle tissues differs qualitatively from that one in liver or kidneys. Most noticeable aluminium-induced changes of protein synthesis in organs in vivo occur within the first 15-20 h after intoxication. We show that aluminium ions activates protein synthesis in liver and kidneys (at 8-16 h) while in skeletal muscle and heart does not. These results indirectly are supported by the data of experiments in vitro, which demonstrate that at low concentration aluminium ions activates protein synthesis in the cell-free translation system prepared from liver.

Photolithography is the most widely used micropatterning technique at the micro- and nanoscale in device fabrication. However, traditional photoresists used in photolithography are typically nonaqueous-based toxic substances that require harsh conditions for processing, limiting the development of biofunctional and biocompatible micropatterns. In this study, a protein-based aqueous photoresist derived from chemically modified silk fibroin named SAMA, capable of achieving high-resolution micropatterning (<1.

The molecular mechanisms by which vaccinia virus (VACV), the prototypical member of the poxviridae family, reprograms host cell metabolism remain largely unexplored. Additionally, cells sense and respond to fluctuating nutrient availability, thereby modulating metabolic pathways to ensure cellular homeostasis. Understanding how VACV modulates metabolic pathways in response to nutrient signals is crucial for understanding viral replication mechanisms, with the potential for developing antiviral therapies.

Birnaviruses infect a broad range of vertebrate hosts, including fish and birds, and cause substantial economic losses in the fishery and livestock industries. The infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), an aquabirnavirus, specifically infects salmonids. While structures on T=1 subviral particles of the birnaviruses, including IPNV, have been studied, structural insights into the infectious T=13 particles have been limited to the infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), an avibirnavirus.

Keyhole limpet haemocyanins (KLH1 and KLH2) from , are multi-subunit oxygen-carrying metalloproteins of approximately 3900 amino acids, that are widely used as carrier proteins in conjugate vaccines and in immunotherapy. KLHs and their derived conjugate vaccines are poorly characterized by LC-MS/MS due to their very stable supramolecular structures with megadalton molecular mass, and their resistance to efficient digestion with standard protocols. KLH1 and KLH2 proteins were conjugated to the conserved P0 peptide (pP0), derived from the P0 acidic ribosomal protein of sp.

The inhibition of human microsomal prostaglandin E (PGE) synthase-1 (mPGES-1) is a promising therapeutic modality for developing next-generation anti-inflammatory medications. In this study, we present novel 2-phenylbenzothiazole derivatives featuring heteroaryl sulfonamide end-capping substructures as inhibitors of human mPGES-1, with IC values in the range of 0.72-3.
