Protein H--a bacterial surface protein with affinity for both immunoglobulin and fibronectin type III domains

Streptococcus pyogenes secreted enzymes interacting with the human host

Streptococcus pyogenes is one of the most common bacteria infecting humans. One of the factors contributing to the disease-causing properties is the secreted streptococcal cysteine proteinase, SpeB, which degrades several host proteins in connective tissue and circulation. SpeB activity depends on the transformation from an inactive precursor, zymogen, into a mature proteinase. We show that

Sushi domain-containing protein 4 (SUSD4) inhibits complement by disrupting the formation of the classical C3 convertase.

Many group A streptococcal strains express two different immunoglobulin-binding proteins, encoded by closely linked genes: characterization of the proteins expressed by four strains of different M-type

Structural determination of Streptococcus pyogenes M1 protein interactions with human immunoglobulin G using integrative structural biology

Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A streptococcus; GAS) is an important human pathogen responsible for mild to severe, life-threatening infections. GAS expresses a wide range of virulence factors, including the M family proteins. The M proteins allow the bacteria to evade parts of the human immune defenses by triggering the formation of a dense coat of plasma proteins surrounding the bacteria, includi

Potentialities of manganese ore and iron-carbon particles for pharmaceuticals and personal care products removal in electroactive constructed wetland

This study explores the use of manganese ore, iron-carbon particles (Fe-C), and gravel as anode fillers in electroactive constructed wetlands (ECWs) to treat wastewater containing pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) including ciprofloxacin (CIP), ofloxacin (OFL), and naproxen (NPX), while also assessing bioelectricity production. Although the presence of PPCPs reduced pollutant remo

Development and validation of a novel Simoa assay for NPTX2 in Alzheimer's disease and Down syndrome

INTRODUCTION: Synaptic dysfunction and loss are pathological hallmarks of neurodegenerative diseases. Neuronal pentraxin 2 (NPTX2), a presynaptic protein involved in synaptic plasticity, has been linked to cognitive decline in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative disorders. METHODS: We developed and validated a novel single molecule array (Simoa) for NPTX2 in cerebrospinal fluid, w

Energy Storage & Conversion

Sustainable energy storage and conversion explores innovative methods to efficiently store and transform energy from various renewable sources. It focuses on technologies like advanced batteries, hydrogen production, fuel cells, and thermochemical systems as well as safety aspects of battery storage systems. Research aims to enhance energy density, reduce costs, and improve scalability, enabling r
