Outer membrane proteins of Fusobacterium nucleatum, a cancer‑leading bacteria, are considered as the factors responsible for its pathogenicity. Among them, homotrimeric autotransporter protein YadA (Yersinia adhesin A) is an important virulence factor also found in the outer membrane of pathogenic Yersinia species. In this paper, the structure and stability of certain Cu(II) complexes with YadA fragments were investigated using both, experimental and theoretical methods.

Purpose: To investigate the molecular mechanism underlying the Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON)-linked MT-ND1 3460G>A mutation.
Methods: Cybrid cell models were generated by fusing mitochondrial DNA-less ρ0 cells with enucleated cells from a patient carrying the m.3460G>A mutation and a control subject.

Background: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is an important etiology for chronic hepatitis globally, and especially so in China. HBV infection can lead to the development of cirrhosis through the pathological process of liver fibrosis. The effective suppression of HBV replication with NAs or interferon-alpha can histologically regress the fibrotic pathological process, but there remain patients who have achieved anti-viral responses and normalization of serum liver tests, but not liver fibrosis regression.

Background: The presence of residual DNA carried by biological products in the body may lead to an increased oncogenicity, infectivity, and immunomodulatory risk. Therefore, current agencies including WHO, EU, and the FDA limited the accepted amounts of residual DNA (less than 10 ng or 100 pg/dose). Among the methods of detecting residual DNA, qPCR is considered to be the most practical for residual DNA quantitation due to its sensitivity, accuracy, precision, and time-saving.

In recent studies, electronegative multimodal chromatography with Eshmuno HCX was demonstrated to be a highly promising recovery step for direct immunoglobulin G (IgG) capture from undiluted cell culture fluid. In this study, the binding properties of HCX to IgG at different pH/salt combinations were systematically studied, and its purification performance was significantly enhanced by lowering the washing pH and conductivity after high capacity binding of IgG under its optimal conditions. A single polishing step gave an end-product with non-histone host cell protein (nh-HCP) below 1 ppm, DNA less than 1 ppb, which aggregates less than 0.
