Cotranslational modification of the nascent polypeptide chain is one first events during birth a new protein. In eukaryotes, methionine aminopeptidases (MetAPs) cleave off starter methionine, whereas N-acetyl-transferases (NATs) catalyze N-terminal acetylation. MetAPs and NATs compete with other cotranslationally acting chaperones, such as ribosome-associated complex (RAC), protein targeting translocation factors (SRP Sec61) for binding sites at ribosomal tunnel exit. Yet, well-resolved...

Introduction Despite increased use of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in Germany, HIV infection rates are not declining and little is known about how this prevention method affects the prevalence sexually transmitted infections (STI) among men who have sex with (MSM). Aim We studied, a large multicentre cohort, STI point prevalence, co-infection rates, anatomical location influence PrEP. Methods The BRAHMS study was prospective cohort conducted at 10 sites seven major German cities that...
