Background: The Plasmodium proteasome emerges as a promising target for anti-malarial drug development due to its potential activity against multiple life cycle stages.
Methods: In this investigation, a comparative analysis was conducted on the structural features of the β5 subunit in the 20S proteasomes of both Plasmodium and humans.
Results: The findings underscore the structural diversity inherent in both proteasomes.

Background: Glanders and melioidosis are contagious zoonotic diseases caused by Burkholderia mallei and B. pseudomallei, respectively. Bacterial isolation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) have been used to detect these bacteria in animals suspected of infection; however, both methods require skilled experimental techniques and expensive equipment.

Integral controller is widely used in industry for its capability of endowing perfect adaptation to disturbances. To harness such capability for precise gene expression regulation, synthetic biologists have endeavoured in building biomolecular (quasi-)integral controllers, such as the antithetic integral controller. Despite demonstrated successes, challenges remain with designing the controller for improved transient dynamics and adaptation.

Background: Lungs of people with Cystic Fibrosis (pwCF) are characterized by chronic inflammation and infection with P. aeruginosa. High levels of IL-17 A and F have been observed in sputum of pwCF and the interleukin-17(IL-17) family (A-to-F) has been suggested to play a key role in CF pulmonary disease.
