ABSTRACT Inorganic polyphosphate (polyP) is a linear polymer composed of several molecules orthophosphate (P i ) linked by energy-rich phosphoanhydride bonds. In Pseudomonas aeruginosa , P taken up the ABC transporter Pst, encoded an operon consisting five genes. The first four genes encode proteins involved in transport and last gene operon, phoU codes for protein which exact function unknown. We show here that inactivation P. enhanced removal from medium polyP accumulation. mutant also...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen associated with life-threatening nosocomial and community-acquired infections. Antibiotic resistance an immediate threat to public health demands urgent action discovering new antimicrobial agents. One of the best alternatives for pre-clinical tests animal models greater wax moth Galleria mellonella. Here, we evaluated antipseudomonal activity silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using G. mellonella larvae. The AgNPs were...

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a known causative agent of diarrhea in children. In the process colonization small intestine, EPEC synthesizes two types adhesins, bundle-forming pilus (BFP) and intimin. The BFP an adhesin associated with initial stages adherence to epithelial cells, while outer membrane protein intimin carries out intimate that takes place at third stage infection. encoded by bfp operon located plasmid EAF, present only typical isolates, eae, gene encodes...

Scientific hype understood as an exaggeration of the significance and/or promise scientific discovery, has been often seen a problem for production science communication, not reception; press releases and traditional media are usually blamed exaggerating claims using click-bait headlines, interest public is background motivator behind hype. The role social in present COVID-19 crisis, however – specially sudden ascension to fame hydroxychloroquine purported "game-changer" pandemic challenges...

ABSTRACT Science teaching in most Brazilian Universities tends to focus mainly on lectures and provides few opportunities for the development of modern skills. Our group developed an online tool called Adopt a Bacterium, which consists Facebook where teacher assistants (TAs) can interact with students have first contact student-focused learning approaches. This work shows TAs’ own assessment how could be further explored help them develop skills become better teachers.

This study investigates the application of David Kolb's experiential learning theory in development leadership competencies corporate contexts, focusing on how different styles influence effectiveness training programs. The research analyzes four identified by Kolb — divergent, assimilator, convergent, and accommodator evaluates their impact improvement skills leaders training. By adapting these to training, demonstrates that recognizing individual preferences can lead a more effective...

The draft genome sequences of two Chromobacterium violaceum strains isolated from the Rio Negro are reported here. These bacteria carry most genetic systems associated with production bioactive compounds, but unlike other C. strains, they lack a dedicated operon for arsenic resistance.
