TLDR
A deep neural network capable of predicting molecules with antibacterial activity is trained and a molecule from the Drug Repurposing Hub-halicin- is discovered that is structurally divergent from conventional antibiotics and displays bactericidal activity against a wide phylogenetic spectrum of pathogens.

Nano-metal-organic-frameworks for treating H2O2-Secreting bacteria alleviate pulmonary injury and prevent systemic sepsis.

TL;DR: In this article, the use of H2O2-reactive metal-organic framework nanosystems (MOFs) for treating pneumococcus pneumoniae (S. pneumoniae) was demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Host-acting antibacterial compounds combat cytosolic bacteria.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors focus mainly on the interactions between host cells and facultative intracellular bacteria to explore potential targets for the discovery and development of HACs, and summarize the targets of recently described HAC and their modes of action and pharmacological activities against diverse pathogenic bacteria-associated infections.

Development and validation of a deep neural network-based model to predict acute kidney injury following intravenous administration of iodinated contrast media in hospitalized patients with chronic kidney disease: a multicohort analysis.

TL;DR: A DNN model using routinely available variables can accurately discriminate the risk of PC-AKI of hospitalized CKD patients following intravenous administration of ICM and shows promising discrimination in subgroup analyses.

Harms from Increasingly Agentic Algorithmic Systems

TL;DR: In this article , the authors identify four key characteristics which tend to increase the agency of a given algorithmic system: underspecification, directness of impact, goal-directedness, and long-term planning.

Moderated estimation of fold change and dispersion for RNA-seq data with DESeq2

TL;DR: This work presents DESeq2, a method for differential analysis of count data, using shrinkage estimation for dispersions and fold changes to improve stability and interpretability of estimates, which enables a more quantitative analysis focused on the strength rather than the mere presence of differential expression.

Fast and accurate short read alignment with Burrows–Wheeler transform

TL;DR: Burrows-Wheeler Alignment tool (BWA) is implemented, a new read alignment package that is based on backward search with Burrows–Wheeler Transform (BWT), to efficiently align short sequencing reads against a large reference sequence such as the human genome, allowing mismatches and gaps.

edgeR: a Bioconductor package for differential expression analysis of digital gene expression data.

TL;DR: EdgeR as mentioned in this paper is a Bioconductor software package for examining differential expression of replicated count data, which uses an overdispersed Poisson model to account for both biological and technical variability and empirical Bayes methods are used to moderate the degree of overdispersion across transcripts, improving the reliability of inference.
Journal ArticleDOI

One-step inactivation of chromosomal genes in Escherichia coli K-12 using PCR products

TL;DR: A simple and highly efficient method to disrupt chromosomal genes in Escherichia coli in which PCR primers provide the homology to the targeted gene(s), which should be widely useful, especially in genome analysis of E. coli and other bacteria.

Extended-Connectivity Fingerprints

TL;DR: A description of their implementation has not previously been presented in the literature, and ECFPs can be very rapidly calculated and can represent an essentially infinite number of different molecular features.
