Published: July 1996

The PstB protein of the phosphate-specific transport (Pst) system of Escherichia coli bound and hydrolyzed ATP, producing ADP. Urea-treated denatured PstB did not bind ATP. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of the immune serum-precipitable PstB protein was determined, and it corresponded to that deduced from the DNA sequence.

Garlic and chili are widely used as food flavoring agents in food cooking, therefore might be accumulated in large amounts in food waste (FW). The effects of garlic and chili on the dissolution, hydrolysis, acidification and methanation in an anaerobic co-digestion system were investigated during the combined co-digestion of FW and excess sludge (ES). Additionally, the transformation of phosphorus form and microbial metabolism changes during the process were analyzed.

Kawasaki disease (KD) is a vasculitis mainly affecting children under five, with symptoms such as persistent fever, rash, red lips, strawberry tongue, conjunctivitis, and swollen hands and feet. Diagnosis is based on a fever lasting over five days plus at least four of these symptoms. Treatment includes intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and aspirin to reduce complications, especially coronary artery issues.

YpsR, a pivotal regulatory protein in the quorum-sensing (QS) of (), is essential for molecular signaling, yet its molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Herein, this study systematically investigates the interactions between YpsR and acyl-homoserine lactones (AHLs), shedding light on the selective mechanism of YpsR to various AHL molecules. Using molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis, we confirmed YpsR's binding affinities, with the strongest observed for 3OC6-HSL, which notably inhibited growth.
