The increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistance is a critical challenge, necessitating the development of strategies to mitigate the evolution of resistance. Collateral sensitivity (CS)-based sequential therapies have been proposed to mitigate resistance evolution. However, the evolutionary repeatability of CS across different experimental conditions a ...

In individuals with obesity, the onset of chronic comorbidities coincides with the excessive accumulation of adipose tissue in various tissue beds. As obesity progresses, adipose tissue becomes increasingly dysfunctional causing chronic low-grade inflammation. Indeed, adipose tissue inflammation, which partially stems from macrophage infiltration and expr ...

The Escherichia coli enterobactin biosynthetic protein EntB is a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes hydrolysis of isochorismate via its N-terminal isochorismatase (IC) domain, and then transfers phosphopantetheinylated 2,3-DHB to EntF via the EntB C-terminal aryl carrier protein (ArCP) domain. Here we used a fluorescence anisotropy binding assay to invest ...

Medical imaging maps tissue characteristics into image intensity values, enhancing human perception. However, comprehending this data, especially in high-stakes scenarios such as surgery, is prone to errors. Additionally, current multimodal methods do not fully leverage this valuable data in thei ...

Ionomers containing a small number of ionic side groups are a unique class of polymers with some valuable properties and distinct applications. To date, commercially important ionomers are exclusively anionomers that contain covalently bonded anions and are synthesized commonly by radical polymerization. The catalytic synthesis of polyethylene-based catio ...
