These results confirmed bio-nanotechnology's great potential in preparation of stable and functional nanocatalysts for degradation of hazardous substances, including chemical warfare agents.The X family is one of the eight families of DNA polymerases (dPols) and members of this family are known to participate in the later stages of Base Excision Repair. Many prokaryotic members of this family possess a Polymerase and Histidinol Phosphatase (PHP) domain at their C-termini. The PHP domain has been shown to possess 3'-5' exonuclease activity and may represent the proofreading function in these dPols. PolX from Staphylococcus aureus also possesses the PHP domain at the C-terminus, and we show that this domain has an intrinsic Mn2+ dependent 3'-5' exonuclease capable of removing misincorporated dNMPs from the primer. The misincorporation of oxidized nucleotides such as 8oxodGTP and rNTPs are known to be pro-mutagenic and can lead to genomic instability. Here, we show that the PHP domain aids DNA replication by the removal of misincorporated oxidized nucleotides and rNMPs. Overall, our study shows that the proofreading activity of the PHP domain plays a critical role in maintaining genomic integrity and stability. The exonuclease activity of this enzyme can, therefore, be the target of therapeutic intervention to combat infection by methicillin-resistant-Staphylococcus-aureus.To characterize the course of Alzheimer's disease (AD) over a longer time interval, we aimed to construct a disease course model for the entire span of the disease using two separate cohorts ranging from preclinical AD to AD dementia. We modelled the progression course of 436 patients with AD continuum and investigated the effects of apolipoprotein E ε4 (APOE ε4) and sex on disease progression. To develop a model of progression from preclinical AD to AD dementia, we estimated Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognit
