Orotidine 5′-monophosphate (OMP) is the direct precursor of uridine 5′-monophosphate (UMP) in pyrimidine biosynthesis. OMP is used to study the specificity, kinetics, structures and mechanisms of orotidine 5′-monophosphate decarboxylase(s) (EC 4.1.1.23).

The use of liposome as an adjuvant and a vaccine carrier has been cited previously in the literature. It has also been shown to be effective in enhancing the immunogenicity of vaccine candidates. BALB/c mice immunized subcutaneously with outer membrane

The olfactory system can discriminate a vast number of odorants. This ability derives from the existence of a large family of odorant receptors expressed in the cilia of the olfactory sensory neurons. Odorant receptors signal through the olfactory-specific G-protein subunit
In Gram-negative bacteria, autotransporters secrete effector protein domains that are linked to virulence. Although they were once thought to be simple and autonomous secretion machines, mounting evidence reveals that multiple factors of the bacterial envelope are necessary for autotransporter assembly.
Oxidative stress causes tissue damage, affecting age-related pathologies. Protein restriction (PR) provides a powerful intervention strategy for reducing oxidative stress, which may have a positive effect on individual organs. However, it is unknown whether PR intervention influences the olfactory system.

Orotidine 5'-monophosphate decarboxylase (ODCase) is among the most proficient enzymes, and catalyzes the decarboxylation of OMP to UMP. An overview of ODCase and various proposals for its catalytic mechanism of decarboxylation are briefly presented here. A number of inhibitors of
