Bacterial exopolysaccharides have always been suggested to play crucial roles in the bacterial initial adhesion and development of complex architecture later stages biofilm formation. However, Escherichia coli group II capsular polysaccharide was characterized exert broad-spectrum inhibition activity. In this study, we firstly reported that a exopolysaccharide (A101) not only inhibits formation many bacteria but also disrupts established some strains. A101 with an average molecular weight up...

Abstract SIRT1 is the most evolutionarily conserved mammalian sirtuin, and it plays a vital role in regulation of metabolism, stress responses, genome stability, ageing. As sensor, deacetylase activity significantly increased during stresses, but molecular mechanisms are not yet fully clear. Here, we show that dynamically modified with O-GlcNAc at Ser 549 its carboxy-terminal region, which directly increases both vitro vivo. The O-GlcNAcylation elevated genotoxic, oxidative, metabolic...

Abstract Protein S -nitrosylation, the redox-based posttranslational modification of a cysteine thiol by attachment nitric oxide (NO) group, is responsible for variety signaling effects. Dysregulation -nitrosylation may be directly linked to cancer apoptotic resistance and therapy outcomes, emphasizing importance in cancer. Peroxiredoxin-2 (Prdx2), an antioxidant enzyme, plays important role protection cells from oxidative radical damage caused hydrogen dioxide (H 2 O ), which potential...

TROP-2, a tumor-associated antigen, has been implicated in the progression of various epithelial tumors. Due to its favorable expression profile, TROP-2 emerged as promising target for antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) based anti-tumor therapies. Although ADCs have shown efficacy cancer treatment, their application solid tumors is hindered by high molecular weight, poor tumor penetration, and release cytotoxic molecules. Therefore, recombinant immunotoxin was developed on shark-derived...

Agarases are generally classified into glycoside hydrolase families 16, 50, and 86 found to degrade agarose frequently generate neoagarobiose, neoagarotetraose, or neoagarohexaose as the main products. In this study we have cloned a novel endo-type beta-agarase gene, agaB, from marine Pseudoalteromonas sp. CY24. The agarase encoded by agaB gene has no significant sequence similarity with any known proteins including all hydrolases. It degrades neoagarooctaose neoagarodecaose end Based on...

Abstract Background Gangliosides are sialic acid containing glycosphingolipids that ubiquitously distributed on vertebrate plasma membranes. GM3, a precursor for most of the more complex ganglioside species, is synthesized by GM3 synthase. Although total levels significantly higher in breast tumor tissue than normal mammary tissue, roles played gangliosides cancer formation and metastasis not clear. Methods To investigate development, synthase was silenced highly metastatic 4T1 cells...
