We report on a case with an unusual combination of pulmonary pathogens including Pneumocystis carinii, Rhodococcus equi and Toxoplasma gondii in an HIV infected patient. The multiple microbiological procedures required to ascertain the etiological diagnoses of pneumonitis in HIV-seropositive subjects are discussed.

Energy transfer processes in nanohybrids are at the focal point of conceptualizing, designing, and realizing novel energy-harvesting systems featuring nanocrystals that absorb photons and transfer their energy unidirectionally to surface-immobilized functional dyes. Importantly, the functionality of these dyes defines the ultimate application. Herein, CsPbBr perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) are interfaced with zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) dyes featuring carboxylic acid.

Background: Waste and fraud are important problems for health insurers to deal with. With the advent of big data, these insurers are looking more and more towards data mining and machine learning methods to help in detecting waste and fraud. However, labeled data is costly and difficult to acquire as it requires expert investigators and known care providers with atypical behavior.

Janustatin A is a potently cytotoxic polyketide alkaloid produced at trace amounts by the marine bacterial plant symbiont . Its biosynthetic terminus features an unusual pyridine-containing bicyclic system of unclear origin, in which polyketide and amino acid extension units appear reversed compared to the order of enzymatic modules in the polyketide synthase (PKS)-nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) assembly line. To elucidate unknown steps in heterocycle formation, we first established robust genome engineering tools in .

Growing evidence suggests that ribosomes selectively regulate translation of specific mRNA subsets. Here, quantitative proteomics and cryoelectron microscopy demonstrate that poxvirus infection does not alter ribosomal subunit protein (RP) composition but skews 40S rotation states and displaces the 40S head domain. Genetic knockout screens employing metabolic assays and a dual-reporter virus further identified two RPs that selectively regulate non-canonical translation of late poxvirus mRNAs, which contain unusual 5' poly(A) leaders: receptor of activated C kinase 1 (RACK1) and RPLP2.

Plant pathogens pose a continuous threat to global food production. Recent discoveries in plant immunity research unveiled a unique protein family characterized by an unusual resistance protein structure that combines two kinase domains. This study demonstrates the widespread occurrence of tandem kinase proteins (TKPs) across the plant kingdom.
