Streptomyces coelicolor macrodomain hydrolase SCO6735 cleaves thymidine-linked ADP-ribosylation of DNA
(Elsevier, 8 August 2022)ADP-ribosylation is an ancient, highly conserved, and reversible covalent modification critical for a variety of endogenous processes in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. ADP-ribosylation targets proteins, nucleic acids, ... -
Synthesis of vancomycin fluorescent probes that retain antimicrobial activity, identify Gram-positive bacteria, and detect Gram-negative outer membrane damage
(Nature Research, 14 April 2023)Antimicrobial resistance is an urgent threat to human health, and new antibacterial drugs are desperately needed, as are research tools to aid in their discovery and development. Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic ... -
Minitraps: A simple, compact, low-cost, and reusable method for collecting soil nematodes
(Caltech Library, 17 April 2023)Soil organisms are a crucial part of the terrestrial biosphere and are essential for ecosystem functioning. A major part of soil and sediment ecosystems are nematodes worms, which can be used as a bioindicator of soil ... -
Experts’ opinions on threats to Leach’s Storm-Petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous) across their global range
(Resilience Alliance, 1 April 2023)Seabirds are declining globally, though the threats they face differ among and within species and populations. Following substantial population declines at several breeding colonies, Leach’s Storm-Petrel (Hydrobates ... -
Immunolabelling for detection of endogenous and overexpressed peroxisomal proteins in mammalian cells
(Springer, 24 March 2023)Peroxisomes are dynamic subcellular organelles in mammals, playing essential roles in cellular lipid metabolism and redox homeostasis. They perform a wide spectrum of functions in human health and disease, with new roles, ...
