Background: Francisella tularensis is an aerobic, gram negative coccobacillus bacterium that causes tularemia. F. tularensis spreads primarily through ticks, biting flies, droplet inhalation, contaminated mud or water, or infected animal bites, and it can survive in animal carcasses with the most common mode of transmission occurring via inoculation into the skin and inhalation/ingestion.

The farnesoid X receptor (FXR) regulates key physiological processes, such as bile acid homeostasis and lipid metabolism, making it an important target for drug discovery. However, the overactivation of FXR often leads to adverse effects. This study presents the development of a novel fluorescent probe utilizing the computer-aided drug design (CADD) approach to optimize linkers between more potent warhead and FITC fluorescent groups.

In many simple viruses and virus-like particles, the protein capsid self-assembles around a nucleic-acid genome. Although the assembly process has been studied in detail, relatively little is known about how the capsid disassembles, a potentially important step for infection (in viruses) or cargo delivery (in virus-like particles). We investigate capsid disassembly using a coarse-grained molecular dynamics model of a = 1 dodecahedral capsid and an RNA-like polymer.

Importance: A substantial number of individuals worldwide experience long COVID, or post-COVID condition. Other postviral and autoimmune conditions have a female predominance, but whether the same is true for long COVID, especially within different subgroups, is uncertain.
Objective: To evaluate sex differences in the risk of developing long COVID among adults with SARS-CoV-2 infection.
