Mycobacterium leprae uptakes various bivalent metal ions via different transporters in host species. Uptake of Cu2+ and Zn2+ are essential for generation of superoxide dismutases and catalases, which provide defense against reactive oxygen species mediated death of this pathogen in
The fluorescent apolar probe bis(8-anilinonaphthalene-1-sulfonate) (Bis-ANS) has been used to detect structural correlates of the well-known but poorly understood decay of tubulin function, by which tubulin loses its ability to polymerize and bind drugs in a complex, time-dependent way. The

Aberrant regulation of myocardial force production represents an early biomechanical defect associated with sarcomeric cardiomyopathies, but the molecular mechanisms remain poorly defined. Here, we evaluated the pathogenicity of a previously unreported sarcomeric gene variant identified in a pediatric patient with
Neurodegenerative diseases are linked to a systemic enzyme resistance of toxic aggregated molecules and their pathological consequences. This paper presents a unique phenomenon that Philodina acuticornis, a bdelloid rotifer, is able to catabolize different types of neurotoxic peptide and protein
