Collagen is the most abundant protein in the human body and has an important role in healthy tissue as well as in a range of prevalent diseases. Medical research and diagnostics, hence, call for means of mapping collagen in vivo. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a natural candidate for this task, offering full 3D capability and versatile contrast non-invasively. However, coll...

Pseudouridine (Ψ) modifications are the most abundant RNA modifications; however, their distribution and functional significance in bacteria remain largely unexplored compared to eukaryotic systems. In this study, we present the first transcriptome-wide and quantitative mapping of Ψ modifications across five diverse bacterial species (Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli<...

Cholesterol homeostasis is fundamental to cellular function, and its disruption underlies a wide range of human diseases. However, the contribution of cholesterol biosynthesis to auditory physiology remains poorly understood. HSD17B7 (17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 7) catalyzes the conversion of zymosterone to zymosterol, a key step in the post-lanosterol cholesterol bios...

The glutamine-binding protein GlnBP is part of an ATP-binding cassette transporter system in Escherichia coli and uses two well-characterized conformational states, an open ligand-free and a closed-liganded state, to facilitate active amino-acid uptake. Existing literature on its ligand-binding mechanism lacked sufficient evidence to univocally assign the kinetic type of ...
