Use of co-cultivation method to stimulate the production of antimicrobial natural products from mangrove microorganisms by Tan, Jin Wei

“…Cryptic gene clusters from actinomycetes are suspected to harbor potential in producing bioactive products, and in this study, co-cultivation is utilized to stimulate these cryptic gene clusters in novel antibiotics production. 10 actinomycete strains isolated from Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve were co-cultured with Mycobacterium Abscessus and Asperigillus Westerdijikiae in two liquid mediums, Glucose-Yeast extract-Malt extract (GYM) and Minimum Media (MM). …”

Structural basis of RNA binding by leucine zipper GCN4 by Nikolaev, Yaroslav, Pervushin, Konstantin

“…To support further mechanistic studies, herein, we elucidated RNA binding interface of the GCN4 leucine zipper motif from yeast. Solution NMR experiments showed that the LZ-RNA interaction interface is located in the first two heptads of LZ moiety, and that only the dimeric (coiled coil) LZ conformation is capable of binding RNA. …”

A regulatory role for repeated decoy transcription factor binding sites in target gene expression by Lee, Tek‐Hyung, Maheshri, Narendra

“…Using a synthetic system in budding yeast, we demonstrate that repeated decoy sites inhibit gene expression by sequestering a transcriptional activator and converting the graded dose–response of target promoters to a sharper, sigmoidal‐like response. …”

Discovery of stabilized functional mutants of human aquaporin 1 by Soh, Miao Yi

“…A cell-based freeze-thaw functionality assay that was developed by the lab was conducted on yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells transformed with the plasmids to identify the functional mutants, i.e., mutants that express the mutated AQP1 protein that would allow them to exhibit a protective effect in response to rapid freezing. ~ 5% of mutants from a total of 2816 screened from thirty-three 96-well plates were identified after a series of initial and verification screens. …”

Phase separation of a microtubule plus-end tracking protein into a fluid fractal network by Czub, MP, Uliana, F, Grubić, T, Padeste, C, Rosowski, KA, Lorenz, C, Dufresne, ER, Menzel, A, Vakonakis, I, Gasser, U, Steinmetz, MO

“…Here, we have study the phase separation of Bik1, a CLIP-170 family member and key +TIP involved in budding yeast cell division. Bik1 is a dimer with a rod-shaped conformation primarily defined by its central coiled-coil domain. …”

Using shock tube species time-histories in Bayesian parameter estimation: Effective independent-data number and target selection by Chen, Huaibo, Ji, Weiqi, Cassady, Séan J, Ferris, Alison M, Hanson, Ronald K, Deng, Sili

“…The influence of target selection is investigated by comparing LastP and C-1. LastP outperformed C-1 slightly, which can be attributed to the fact that larger discrepancies observed between experimental data and model predictions of the last point can increase the weights of likelihood functions. …”
