Bacterial small proteins impact diverse physiological processes, however, technical challenges posed by small size hampered their systematic identification and biochemical characterization. In our quest to uncover small proteins relevant for pathogenicity, we previously identified YjiS, a 54 amino acid protein, which is strongly induced during this pathogen's intracellular infection stage. Here, we set out to further characterize the role of YjiS.

Commutability is where the measurement response for a reference material (RM) is the same as for an individual patient sample with the same concentration of analyte measured using two or more measurement systems. Assessment of commutability is essential when the RM is used in a calibration hierarchy or to ensure that clinical measurements are comparable across different measurement procedures and at different times. The commutability of three new Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) for determining serum total 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], defined as the sum of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], was assessed through an interlaboratory study.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a drug resistant and lethal cancer. Identification of the genes that consistently show altered expression across patients' cohorts can expose effective therapeutic targets and strategies. To identify such genes, we separately analyzed five human PDAC microarray datasets.

SANKEN, Osaka University, Mihogaoka, Ibaraki-shi, Osaka 567-0047, Japan.

Article Synopsis
  • Histone methylation is a key part of epigenetics, involving enzymes like G9a that modify histones and regulate DNA processes such as replication and gene expression.
  • Overexpression of G9a is linked to cancer development and progression, making it an appealing target for new cancer therapies.
  • Research is also uncovering the role of G9a in diseases like Alzheimer's, leading to the development of G9a inhibitors that could treat various conditions by disrupting harmful signaling pathways.

The Nipah virus (NiV), a highly pathogenic zoonotic virus of the family, poses significant threats with its alarming mortality rates and pandemic potential. Despite historical cases, effective therapeutics remain elusive, prompting urgent exploration of potential antivirals. In this study, a structure-based virtual screening approach was employed to evaluate 690 metabolites sourced from ten medicinal plants () for their antiviral activity against Nipah virus proteins.
