Selenocysteine (Sec) is naturally co-translationally incorporated into proteins by recoding the UGA opal codon with a specialized elongation factor (SelB in bacteria) and an RNA structural signal (SECIS element). We have recently developed SECIS-free selenoprotein synthesis system that site-specifically--using UAG amber codon--inserts Sec depending on Tu (EF-Tu). Here, we describe engineering of EF-Tu for improved synthesis. A Sec-specific selection was established expression human protein...
744 Background: Micropapillary variant bladder cancer (MPC) is a rare subtype of urothelial carcinoma, representing 0.01–2.2% cases, with higher stage at diagnosis and increased metastatic potential. The prognostic role MPC remains uncertain, previous studies have been limited by small cohort sizes, only few larges studies. This study analyzed the impact on clinical survival outcomes in largest single-institution patients who underwent radical cystectomy (RC). Methods: retrospective included...
Introduction/Objectives: Despite minimal evidence that evaluates the effect of age on percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) morbidity, pediatric and elderly patients are considered high-risk groups. Our objective was to assess extremes ages PCNL readmission postoperative complication rates. Methods: We identified all encounters in 2013 2014 Nationwide Readmission Database. Encounters were divided into five groups: (<18 years old), young adult (18-25 (26-64 geriatric (65-74 (≥75 old). Weighted...
This study aimed to describe the demographic characteristics, hospital utilizations, patterns of inpatient surgical management, and overall state/regional variation in surgery rate among patients with disorders sex development (DSD). We analyzed Nationwide Inpatient Sample from 2001 2012 for younger than 21 years. DSD-related diagnoses procedures were identified via International Classification Diseases, Ninth Revision (ICD-9) codes. a total 43,968 admissions. Of these, 73.4% admissions...
