AI Article Synopsis
- PLACP1 is a thermophilic, aerobic Actinomyces bacterium found in compost that aids in breaking down organic matter and may host antibiotic-resistance genes (ARGs) during composting.
- It was isolated from thermophilic sludge under specific growth conditions, showing characteristics such as being Gram-stain-positive and having long, branched cells.
- The genome of PLACP1, which is 3,395,140 bp long and contains 3,368 genes (including many related to ARGs), has been sequenced and deposited in a public database to support further research on antibiotic resistance and its role in organic matter degradation.
Article Abstract
is a thermophilic aerobic Actinomyces often found in compost that is suggested to play a primary role in the degradation of organic matter and is a potential antibiotic-resistance gene (ARG)-hosting bacterium during the composting process. PLACP1 was isolated from thermophilic sludge on a Columbia plate supplemented with chloramphenicol. PLACP1 was Gram-stain-positive with cells longer than 20 μm that branched and intertwined with each other. A draft genome sequence of PLACP1 was generated using the Illumina NovaSeq system and deposited in the National Center for Biotechnology Information database under the BioProject accession numbers PRJDB17484 and SAMD00736731. The genome sequence comprised 3,395,140 bp, with 57.97 % GC content and 3,368 genes, including 3,267 protein-coding, 6 rRNA, and 56 tRNA genes. Based on the Comprehensive Antibiotic Resistance Database, 237 predicted gene products were related to ARGs, including 44 macrolide antibiotic-related genes (19 %) as the largest group. This dataset will be beneficial for the morphological identification, comparative genomic analyses, and ARG research in the genus .

Context: COVID-19 has been associated with features of a cytokine storm syndrome with some patients sharing features with the hyperinflammatory disorder, secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (sHLH).
Hypothesis: We hypothesized that proteins associated with sHLH from other causes will be associated with COVID-sHLH and that subjects with fatal COVID-sHLH would have defects in immune-related pathways.
Methods And Models: We identified two cohorts of adult patients presenting with COVID-19 at two tertiary care hospitals in Seattle, Washington in 2020 and 2021.

Aging is associated with disrupted sleep patterns, such as fragmented sleep and reduced efficiency, leading to negative health outcomes. There is evidence of a bidirectional relationship between sleep and gut microbiota, which plays a key role in the gut-brain axis and overall health. However, studies on this relationship in older adults have limited generalizability and show conflicting results, highlighting the need for further research.

Purpose: Aedes albopictus, known as the Asian tiger mosquito, is an extensively studied mosquito species recognized for its rapid global expansion and its capacity to transmit a range of viruses such as dengue, chikungunya, Zika, and yellow fever viruses. In 2010, Ae. albopictus was observed for the first time in Tizi-Ouzou, Algeria, and since then has colonized all the northern part of the country until the semi-arid areas.

Anthocyanins not only serve as critical pigments determining floral hues but also play essential roles in attracting insects for pollination, feeding animals and mitigating abiotic stress. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation of flower color in sesame has not yet been reported. In this study, an F population was constructed by crossing 'Ganzhi 9' (purple-flowered) with 'BS377' (white-flowered).

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) ranks as the fourth most common cause of brain metastasis (BM), with its incidence on the rise. However, the molecular mechanisms driving the formation of these lesions from CRC remain unclear.
Methods: We analyzed the FoundationOne genomic database, which includes over 35,000 CRC samples from both local and metastatic sites.
