Industrial enzymes have been widely preferred in various industries such as chemical production, food & beverage, pharmaceutical, textile, cosmetics, etc. due to the advancements in recent years. They are considered more economic than using whole cells and more environmental-friendly than chemical alternatives. Since the demand for industrial enzymes has been rising, the development of production strategies has been gathered speed. In this respect, the efficiency of Pichia pastoris (P. pastoris) as a host for heterologous protein expression has proved and gained attention due to its great potential for large-scale studies. Especially high-cell density fermentation of P. pastoris is a well-studied and efficient method. Moreover, the improvements in the state of art gene-editing tools have broadened the possibilities of strain improvement for P. pastoris. This review summarized the role of P. pastoris as a cell factory by accentuating the accomplishments in biocatalyst production. Moreover, the benefits and challenges of the most relevant expression systems named Escherichia coli (E. coli), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S. cerevisiae), P. pastoris and recent evolvements and future directions were revealed in detail. Subsequently, offers for prospects and the latest evolvements to enhance the recombinant protein production were discussed.Young men who have sex with men (YMSM) under 25 years old are among the few populations with increasing numbers of new HIV infections in parts of the world where HIV incidence is declining overall. In this systematic review, we synthesize the literature on HIV prevalence among MSM in Latin America and the Caribbean focusing on YMSM. Results were stratified according to study population sampling method used (probability and non-probability based). Forty-seven studies from 17 countries were published in the last 10 years. Among studies using probability-based sampling method (N = 21), HIV prevalence among MSM ranged from 1.2 to 32.6%. HIV prevalence tended to increase over time in studies sampling at different time points. HIV prevalence among YMSM exceeded 5.0% in more than a half of studies (51%; N = 22/43). Our review corroborates the high and potentially rising incidence of HIV among YMSM and characterizes the region's greatest challenge to ending the epidemic.Gas-phase molecular adsorption was investigated as a model for molecular cloud formation. Molecular adsorption on cold gas-phase hydrogen-bonded clusters containing protonated tryptophan (Trp) enantiomers and monosaccharides such as methyl-α-D-glucoside, D-ribose, and D-arabinose was detected using a tandem mass spectrometer equipped with an electrospray ionization source and cold ion trap. The adsorption sites on the surface of cold gas-phase hydrogen-bonded cluster ions were quantified using gas-phase N2 adsorption-mass spectrometry. The gas-phase N2 adsorption experiments indicated that the number of adsorption sites on the surface of the hydrogen-bonded heterochiral clusters containing L-Trp and D-monosaccharides exceeded the number of adsorption sites on the homochiral clusters containing D-Trp and D-monosaccharides. H2O molecules were preferentially adsorbed on the heterochiral clusters, and larger water clusters were formed in the gas phase. Physical and chemical properties of cold gas-phase hydrogen-bonded clusters containing biological molecules were useful for investigating enantiomer selectivity and chemical evolution in interstellar molecular clouds.Mutations in the SH3TC2 gene cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4C (CMT4C), characterized by inherited demyelinating peripheral neuropathy. CMT4C is a common form of CMT4/autosomal recessive (AR) CMT1. This study examined the SH3TC2 variants, investigated genotype-phenotype correlations and explored the frequency of CMT4C in Chinese patients. A total of 206 unrelated patients of Chinese Han descent clinically diagnosed with CMT were recruited. All patients underwent detailed history-taking, neurological examination, laboratory workups, and electrophysiological studies. Genetic analysis was performed via high-throughput target sequencing (NGS). Three patients, one male and two females, were found to carry five SH3TC2 mutations patient 1 (c.3154C > T, p.R1054X; c.929G > A, p.G310E); Patient 2 (c.2872_2872del, p.S958fs; c.3710C > T, p.A1237V) and Patient 3 (c.2782C > T, p.Q928X; c.929G > A, p.G310E). The c.2872_2872del, c.3710C > T and c.2782C > T variants were not reported before.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/Ml-133-hcl.html  CMT4C caused by SH3TC2 mutation is a very common type of CMT4/AR CMT1. Three novel mutations, c.2872_2872del, c.3710C > T and c.2782C > T, were found in this study. Combination of clinical phenotype, nerve conduction studies, genetic analysis and bioinformatics analysis are of vital importance in patients suspected as CMT.Midazolam is considered as one of the best first-line drugs in managing status epilepticus in children who require emergency drug treatment. Due to poor water solubility, oral bioavailability of midazolam is relatively low. To improve its dissolution and absorption, midazolam nano-suspensions were formulated with different stabilizers using the ultrasonic technique. A combination of Tween 80 and Poloxamer (TP) was considered as one stabilizer and 3-methyl chitosan (TMC) as another stabilizer. The ratio of the stabilizers was selected as an independent variable, and their effects on the particle size and the zeta potential were evaluated by the simplex lattice mixture method. The freeze-dried optimized midazolam nano-suspension powder was characterized by particle-size analysis, SEM, the stability test, and the dissolution test. The optimized midazolam nano-suspension (containing 76% TMC and 24% TP) had a mean particle size of 197 ± 7 nm and a zeta potential of 31 ± 4 (mV). The stability test showed that the midazolam nano-suspension is stable for 12 months. In the in vitro dissolution test, the midazolam nano-suspension showed a marked increase in the drug dissolution percentage versus coarse midazolam. In the in vivo evaluation, the midazolam nano-suspension exhibited a significant increase in the Cmax and the AUC0-5, and a major decrease in Tmax. The overall results indicate the nano-suspension of midazolam is a promising candidate for managing status epilepticus in children in emergency situation.
