Studying the phosphoryl transfer mechanism of the
2019
Phosphofructokinases catalyze the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of fructose-6-phosphate and they are highly regulated.
ortho-(Dimesitylboryl)phenylphosphines: Positive Boryl Effect in the Palladium-Catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura Coupling of 2-Chloropyridines
2013
The presence of ortho-dimesitylboryl moiety in the catalyst is crucial to enhance the catalytic performance.
Die schwierige Intubation
1996
Fur die Definition der schwierigen Intubation ist es sinnvoll, drei Teilvorgange der Intubation zu unterscheiden.
Vergleich von Duplexsonographie und CT zur Beurteilung des Tumoreinbruchs in Vena renalis und Vena cava inferior bei Nierentumoren
1989
Die praoperative Kenntnis der Tumorinvasion von Nierentumoren in Vena renalis und Vena cava inferior ist fur die Operationsstrategie von entscheidender Bedeutung.
Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia in Patients with COVID-19: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
2021
The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to estimate the pooled occurrence of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) among patients admitted to an intensive care unit with COVID-19 and mortality of those who developed VAP. We performed a systematic search on PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science from inception to 2nd March 2021 for nonrandomized studies specifically addressing VAP in adult patients with COVID-19 and reporting data on at least one primary outcome of interest. Random effect single-arm meta-analysis was performed for the occurrence of VAP and mortality (at the longest follow up) and ICU length of stay. Twenty studies were included in the systematic review and meta-an…
The Photocycle of Bacteriophytochrome Is Initiated by Counterclockwise Chromophore Isomerization.
2022
Photoactivation of bacteriophytochrome involves a cis–trans photoisomerization of a biliverdin chromophore, but neither the precise sequence of events nor the direction of the isomerization is known. Here, we used nonadiabatic molecular dynamics simulations on the photosensory protein dimer to resolve the isomerization mechanism in atomic detail. In our simulations the photoisomerization of the D ring occurs in the counterclockwise direction. On a subpicosecond time scale, the photoexcited chromophore adopts a short-lived intermediate with a highly twisted configuration stabilized by an extended hydrogen-bonding network. Within tens of picoseconds, these hydrogen bonds break, allowing the c…
Removal of Cu(II) and Pb(II) from aqueous solutions by lacit acid bacteria
2015
Celem pracy było porównanie zdolności usuwania Cu(II) i Pb(II) z roztworu wodnego przez bakterie kwasu mlekowego (LAB). Badano wpływ różnych parametrów, tj. stężenia jonów metali, pH i czas kontaktu, na proces usuwania jonów miedzi i ołowiu. Do opisu izoterm adsorpcji jonów metali przez biomasę LAB zastosowano modele Langmuira i Freundlicha. Uzyskane dane doświadczalne były lepiej dopasowane do modelu Langmuira niż Freundlicha. Sorbent wykazał maksymalną zdolność sorpcyjną, wynoszącą 11,07 i 10.51 mg · g–1 odpowiednio dla jonów Cu(II) i Pb(II). Optymalne warunki biosorpcji obu jonów metali wynosiły: pH 6,0 i czas równowagi 40 minut. Omówiono również udział grup funkcyjnych na powierzchni bi…
Interpretation of gut microbiota data in the ‘eye of the beholder’: A commentary and re‐evaluation of data from ‘Impacts of radiation exposure on the…
2021
1.Evidence that exposure to environmental pollutants can alter the gut microbiota composition of wildlife includes studies of rodents exposed to radionuclides. 2.Antwis et al. (2021) used amplicon sequencing to characterise the gut microbiota of four species of rodent (Myodes glareolus, Apodemus agrarius, A. flavicollis and A. sylvaticus) inhabiting the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone (CEZ) to examine possible changes in gut bacteria (microbiota) and gut fungi (mycobiota) associated with exposure to radionuclides and whether the sample type (from caecum or faeces) affected the analysis. 3.The conclusions derived from the analyses of gut mycobiota are based on data that represent a mixture of inges…
Interkingdom Gut Microbiome and Resistome of the Cockroach Blattella germanica
2021
Cockroaches are intriguing animals with two coexisting symbiotic systems, an endosymbiont in the fat body, involved in nitrogen metabolism, and a gut microbiome whose diversity, complexity, role, and developmental dynamics have not been fully elucidated. In this work, we present a metagenomic approach to study Blattella germanica populations not treated, treated with kanamycin, and recovered after treatment, both naturally and by adding feces to the diet, with the aim of better understanding the structure and function of its gut microbiome along the development as well as the characterization of its resistome.
Cities and their effects on free-living and host-associated microbes
2023
Mikrobit ovat oleellisen tärkeitä elämälle maapallolla, ja niitä esiintyy vapaina ympäristössä tai isäntäorganismeissa tukien ekosysteemien ja/tai isäntien normaalia toimintaa. Ihminen vaikuttaa lähes kaikkiin planeettamme elinympäristöihin aiheuttaen niiden häviämistä ja huonontumista (mukaan lukien kaupunkien rakentaminen) sekä ympäristöjen saastumista ja ilmastonmuutosta. Mikrobiyhteisöjen (kutsutaan myös mikrobiotaksi, mukaan lukien bakteerit ja sienet) odotetaan reagoivan näihin ihmisen aiheuttamiin valintapaineisiin sopeutumalla muuttuvaan ympäristöön. Siten ihmisen aiheuttamat muutokset ympäristössä voivat muovata mikrobiyhteisöjä (sekä vapaasti eläviä että isäntiin liittyviä) muutta…
