Comprehensive genetic dissection of the magnetosome gene island reveals the step-wise assembly of a prokaryotic organelle

TL;DR: A comprehensive functional analysis of the MAI genes in a magnetotactic bacterium, Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1, shows that magnetosomes are assembled in a step-wise manner in which membrane biogenesis, magnetosome protein localization, and biomineralization are placed under discrete genetic control.
Journal ArticleDOI

The HtrA/DegP family protease MamE is a bifunctional protein with roles in magnetosome protein localization and magnetite biomineralization.

TL;DR: Results imply the existence of a previously unrecognized ‘checkpoint’ in biomineralization where MamE moderates the completion of magnetite formation and thus committal to magneto‐aerotaxis as the organism's dominant mode of navigating the environment.

Nfkbid Overexpression in Nonobese Diabetic Mice Elicits Complete Type 1 Diabetes Resistance in Part Associated with Enhanced Thymic Deletion of Pathogenic CD8 T Cells and Increased Numbers and Activity of Regulatory T Cells

TL;DR: Transgenic overexpression of Nfkbid in NOD mice also paradoxically results in enhanced thymic deletion of autoreactive CD8 AI4 T cells, but transgenic elevation of N fkbid expression also increased the frequency and functional capacity of peripheral Tregs, in part contributing to the induction of complete T1D resistance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lyme Carditis Complicated by Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia and Cardiac Arrest: A Case Report

TL;DR: A previously healthy male who presented to the emergency department with non-prodromal syncope, multifocal annular rashes, and antecedent inflammatory knee pain and effusion is found to have positive 2-tier Lyme testing and pause-dependent polymorphic ventricular tachycardia leading to cardiac arrest.
