Journal ArticleDOI

Complete nitrification by Nitrospira bacteria

TL;DR: The discovery and cultivation of a completely nitrifying bacterium from the genus Nitrospira, a globally distributed group of nitrite oxidizers, and the genome of this chemolithoautotrophic organism encodes the pathways both for ammonia and nitrite oxidation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sex Differences in the Gut Microbiome Drive Hormone-Dependent Regulation of Autoimmunity

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that early-life microbial exposures determine sex hormone levels and modify progression to autoimmunity in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of type 1 diabetes (T1D), and Colonization by commensal microbes elevated serum testosterone and protected NOD males from T1D.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations of tau protein in frontotemporal dementia promote aggregation of paired helical filaments by enhancing local beta-structure.

TL;DR: Two of the tau mutations found in hereditary frontotemporal dementias, ΔK280 and P301L, have a much stronger tendency for PHF aggregation which correlates with their high propensity for β-structure around the hexapeptide motifs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global hairpin folding of tau in solution.

TL;DR: The data indicate that tau retains some global folding even in its "natively unfolded" state, combined with the high flexibility of the chain.
