Such use of viral vectors, including adeno-associated viruses, lentiviruses, and retroviruses, is limited owing to the risk of insertional mutagenesis and immunogenicity. In a recent study, fetal bovine serum (FBS) and its influence were tested on cell cultures, revealing that current analysis and...
The diversity, structure and composition of sponge microbiota communities have been widely investigated in the past decades6,7. Similar microbiomes have been frequently reported in the same host species from geographically distant locations15, but still, there are cases (e.g. P. ficiformis) report...
Here, we explored prebiotic personalization by conducting a three-way crossover study of three prebiotic treatments in healthy adults. We found that within individuals, metabolic responses were correlated across the three prebiotics. Individual identity, rather than prebiotic choice, was also the major ...
For Gal-4FL-H63R and Gal-4FL- H236R, point mutations (H63R and H236R) were inserted into two different pET28a-SUMO expression vectors. The plasmid for the SUMO ULP1 protease, used to cleave the His6-tagged SUMO, was a gift from Hideo Iwai (Addgene plasmid # 31122). For Gal-...
Next, a classification procedure uses those vectors to differentiate between genres. The classification procedure has two main characteristics: (1) a very wide and deep taxonomy, which allows a very meticulous comparison between different genres, and (2) a wide pairwise comparison of genres, which...
an already weakened hive can be taken over by wax moths. However, in feral bee colonies, wax moths are seen as beneficial because they consume weak hives or abandoned hives. It is helpful that the wax moth consumes these weak hives since they harbor more potent vectors and diseases that cou...
Protein-based nanocarriers have demonstrated good potential for cancer drug delivery. Silk sericin nano-particle is arguably one of the best in this field. In this study, we developed a surface charge reversal sericin-based nanocarrier to co-deliver resv
Replication-defective HAdV-5-based vectors also continue to play a significant role in gene transfer trials and in vaccine delivery efforts in the clinic. Although significant progress has been made from studies of AdV biology, we still have an incomplete understanding of AdV's structure as well...
(ACC) transformation of protein sequences into uniform vectors with original amino acid features83. AntigenPro is another server for this, a protein antigenicity predictor that uses a sequence-based, unaligned, pathogen-independent approach82. Scores of more than 0.4 for the VaxiJen viral model and...
