Exploiting C. diff’s Molecular ‘Superpower’
Credit: CDC Key points: A new study shows how two molecular mechanisms work together to make C.diff “extra resistant.” The researchers discovered a novel protein that conveys resistance to a specific class of antibiotics that seems to worsen C.diff infections. With its affinity for rapidly spreading through healthcare settings, increasing…
Swedish bacterial resistance study points to new antibiotics
A species of ordinary gut bacteria flourishes when the intestinal flora is knocked out by a course of antibiotics. Since the bacteria are naturally resistant to many antibiotics, this can cause problems. A study at Lund University in Sweden now shows how two molecular mechanisms can work together to make…
Assessment of Alphafold methods in structural prediction of toxin-antitoxin systems with a focus on interface analysis
Assessment of Alphafold methods in structural prediction of toxin-antitoxin systems with a focus on interface analysis Odai, Roni Jonus (2023) BINP51 20221 Degree Projects in Bioinformatics Abstract The recent revolution in structural prediction methods has made modeling novel protein structures a feasible analysis method. In particular, the Alphafold protocol can produce…
Biology:Circular RNA databases and resources
In molecular biology, Circular RNAs (circRNAs) refer to a class of circular RNA molecules found across all kingdoms of life.[1][2][3] Studies in 2013 have suggested that circRNAs play important regulatory roles in miRNA activity. Researchers found that CDR1as circRNA acts as a miR-7 super-sponge that contains about 70 target sites…
A thousand-genome panel retraces the global spread and adaptation of a major fungal crop pathogen
Global genetic structure of the pathogen tracks the historical spread of wheat We assessed the evolutionary trajectory of the pathogen in conjunction with the history of global wheat cultivation (Fig. 1a). For this, we assembled a worldwide collection of Z. tritici isolates from naturally infected fields (Fig. 1b). We selected isolates covering…

Design studio supporting UK start ups
Hi! I’m Gemma and I currently run a small design studio, aimed at helping start-up clothing brands to launch new collections. Starting a sustainable clothing brand in the UK can be expensive, making it unattainable for many people. I work to support new brands from design through to patterns, samples…
Calculating Log of the odds (LOD)
Calculating Log of the odds (LOD) 1 Hi all! How can I estimate LOD scores for a phenotypic trait? Is it possible to calculate it from the association files created in GEMMA? Thank you in advance! QTLs LOD • 35 views The log of the odds [ratio] can be calculated…
Scientists Use Exotic DNA To Help Create “Climate-Proof” Crops
With a world facing the consequences of climate change, climate-resilient crops are becoming increasingly critical. By having crops that can withstand extreme environmental stressors, food security is improved, as farmers are able to grow crops even in challenging conditions. This, in turn, helps to address the issue of global hunger,…

San Diego scientists race to treat rare genetic diseases
Connor Dalby is in many ways your typical 12-year-old boy. He loves dipping his feet in the cool of the ocean and cruising on his bike through his Oceanside neighborhood. He’s mischievous, and he’s got a way of sticking out his chin and grinning madly when goofing off, blue eyes…
