Clavatols exhibit a wide range of biological activities due to their diverse structures. A genome mining strategy identified an cluster from sp. MYA5, derived from the Arctic plant , is responsible for clavatol biosynthesis. Seven clavatols, including one new clavatol derivate named penicophenone F () and six known clavatols (-), were isolated from sp. MYA5 using a transcriptome mining strategy. These structures were elucidated by comprehensive spectroscopic analysis. Antibacterial, aldose reductase inhibition, and siderophore-producing ability assays were conducted on compounds -. Compounds and demonstrated inhibitory effects on the ALR2 enzyme with inhibition rates of 75.3% and 71.6% at a concentration of 10 μM, respectively. Compound exhibited antibacterial activity against and with MIC values of 4.0 μg/mL and 4.0 μg/mL, respectively. Additionally, compounds , , and also showed potential iron-binding ability.

The development and implementation of county carbon control action plans in the Yellow River Basin (YRB) are crucial for realizing the "dual carbon" goals and modernizing national governance. Utilizing remote sensing data from 2001 to 2020, this study constructs a light-carbon conversion model and a carbon footprint model to simulate the carbon footprint of county energy consumption in the YRB. Employing spatial autocorrelation and spatial Durbin models, the study examines the temporal-spatial evolution characteristics and spatial effect mechanism.

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic reshaped social dynamics, fostering reliance on social media for information, connection, and collective sense-making. Understanding how citizens navigate a global health crisis in varying cultural and economic contexts is crucial for effective crisis communication.
Objective: This study examines the evolution of citizen collective sense-making during the COVID-19 pandemic by analyzing social media discourse across Italy, the United Kingdom, and Egypt, representing diverse economic and cultural contexts.

Background: Numerous studies have assessed the risk of SARS-CoV-2 exposure and infection among health care workers during the pandemic. However, far fewer studies have investigated the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on essential workers in other sectors. Moreover, guidance for maintaining a safely operating workplace in sectors outside of health care remains limited.

This study provides comprehensive evidence supporting the existence of polycistronic mRNA expression in the apicomplexan parasite . Leveraging long-read RNA-seq data from different parasite strains and using multiple long-read technologies, we demonstrate the existence of defined polycistronic transcripts containing 2-4 protein encoding genes, several validated with RT-PCR.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFNatural products have long been a rich source of diverse and clinically effective drug candidates. Non-ribosomal peptides (NRPs), polyketides (PKs), and NRP-PK hybrids are three classes of natural products that display a broad range of bioactivities, including antibiotic, antifungal, anticancer, and immunosuppressant activities. However, discovering these compounds through traditional bioactivity-guided techniques is costly and time-consuming, often resulting in the rediscovery of known molecules.
