The RNA exosome is a macromolecular machine that degrades a large variety of RNAs from their 3'-end. It comprises the major 3'-to-5' exonuclease in the cell, completely degrades erroneous and overly abundant RNAs, and is also involved in the precise processing of RNAs. To degrade transcripts both specifically and efficiently the exosome functions together with compartment-specific cofactors. In the yeast S. cerevisiae, the exosome associates with the Ski complex in the cytoplasm and with Mtr4 alone or with Mtr4 as part of the TRAMP complex in the nucleus. Here we describe how to produce, purify, and assemble the Ski and TRAMP complexes from S. cerevisiae.

High-throughput analysis of microbiomes in a meat processing facility: are food processing facilities an establishment niche for persisting bacterial communities?

Background: Microbial spoilage in meat impedes the development of sustainable food systems. However, our understanding of the origin of spoilage microbes is limited. Here, we describe a detailed longitudinal study that assesses the microbial dynamics in a meat processing facility using high-throughput culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches to reveal the diversity, dispersal, persistence, and biofilm formation of spoilage-associated microbes.

Melanocortin therapeutics, exemplified by adrenocorticotropic hormone, have a proven steroidogenic-independent anti-proteinuric and glomerular protective effect. The biological functions of melanocortins are mediated by melanocortin receptors (MCR), including MC1R, which recent studies have shown to protect against glomerular disease. However, the role of other MCRs like MC5R is unknown.

Protein glycosylation has been considered as a fundamental phenomenon shared by all domains of life. In , glycosylation of flagellins A and B with pseudaminic acid have been rigorously confirmed and shown to be essential for flagella assembly and bacterial colonization. In addition to flagellins, several other proteins including RecA, AlpA/B, and BabA/B in have also been reported to be glycosylated and to be dependent on the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) biosynthetic pathway.

The human mitochondrial nicotinamide nucleotide transhydrogenase (NNT) uses the proton motive force to drive hydride transfer from NADH to NADP and is a major contributor to the generation of mitochondrial NADPH. NNT plays a critical role in maintaining cellular redox balance. NNT-deficiency results in oxidative damage and its absence results in familial glucocorticoid deficiency.

Halogenated organic pollutants (HOPs) have attracted considerable attention owing to their persistence, bioaccumulation, and toxicity. The development of methods to detect HOPs in fish is challenging owing to the compositional complexity of fish matrices, which contain high levels of lipids and relatively low concentrations of HOPs. In addition, the lipophilicity of most HOPs renders their extraction difficult.
