    Abstract Enolase is a highly conserved enzyme that presents in all organisms capable of glycolysis or fermentation. Its immediate product phosphoenolpyruvate is essential for other important processes like peptidoglycan synthesis and the phosphotransferase system in bacteria. Therefore, enolase inhibitors are of great interest. Here, we report that Gp60, a phage-encoded enolase inhibitor protein (PEIP) of bacteriophage SPO1 for Bacillus subtilis, is an enolase inhibitor. PEIP-expressing bacteria exhibit growth attenuation, thinner cell walls, and safranin color in Gram staining owing to impaired peptidoglycan synthesis. We solve the structure of PEIP-enolase tetramer and show that PEIP disassembles enolase by disrupting the basic dimer unit. The structure reveals that PEIP does not compete for substrate binding but induces a cascade of conformational changes that limit accessibility to the enolase catalytic site. This phage-inspired disassembly of enolase represents an alternative strategy for the development of anti-microbial drugs.

    Abstract Meat production is a complex system, continually receiving animals, water, air, and workers, all of which serve as carriers of bacteria. Selective pressures involved in different meat processing stages such as antimicrobial interventions and low temperatures, may promote the accumulation of certain residential microbiota in meat cutting facilities. Bacteria including human pathogens from all these sources can contaminate meat surfaces. While significant advancements have been made in enhancing hygienic standards and pathogen control measures in meat plants, resulting in a notable reduction in STEC recalls and clinical cases, STEC still stands as a predominant contributor to foodborne illnesses associated with beef and occasionally with pork. The second-and third-generation sequencing technology has become popular in microbiota related studies and provided a better image of the microbial community in the meat processing environments. In this article, we reviewed the potential factors influencing the microbial ecology in commercial meat processing facilities and conducted a meta-analysis on the microbiota data published in the last 10 years. In addition, the mechanisms by which bacteria persist in meat production environments have been discussed with a focus on the significant human pathogen

    Abstract Rapid extraction and concentration systems based on green materials such as cellulose or lignin are promising. However, there is still a need to optimize the material properties and production processes. Unlike conventional cellulose or lignin sorbent materials, aquatic reed root cells can concentrate external organic pollutants in the water and accumulate them in the plant. Inspired by this, a new nanocellulose-lignin aerogel (NLAG) was designed, in which nanocellulose was used as a substrate and lignin and polyamide epoxy chloropropane were used to crosslink cellulose in order to enhance the strength of the NLGA, resulting in good mechanical stability and water-oil amphiphilic properties. In practical applications, the organic membrane on the NLAG can transport organic pollutants from water to the NLAG, where they are immobilized. This is evidenced by the fact that the aerogel can remove more than 93% of exogenous phenol within a few minutes, highly enriching it inside. In addition, the aerogel facilitates filtration and shape recovery for reuse. This work establishes a novel biopolymer-aerogel-based extraction system with the advantages of sustainability, high efficiency, stability, and easy detachability, which are hard for the traditional adsorbent materials to attain.

    Abstract Mitochondria are essential organelles in the human body, serving as the metabolic factory of the whole organism. When mitochondria are dysfunctional, it can affect all organs of the body. The kidney is rich in mitochondria, and its function is closely related to the development of kidney diseases. Studying the relationship between mitochondria and kidney disease progression is of great interest. In the past decade, scientists have made inspiring progress in investigating the role of mitochondria in the pathophysiology of renal diseases. This article discusses various mechanisms for maintaining mitochondrial quality, including mitochondrial energetics, mitochondrial biogenesis, mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial DNA repair, mitochondrial proteolysis and UPR, mitochondrial autophagy, mitochondria-derived vesicles, and mitocytosis. The article also highlights the crosstalk between mitochondria and other organelles, with a focus on kidney diseases. Finally, the article concludes with an overview of mitochondrial-related clinical research.

    Abstract Background: It is still a challenging problem for clinicians to explore the nature of the indeterminate biliary strictures (IBSs). Approximately 20% of biliary strictures remain undetermined after a thorough preoperative assessment.
    Case presentation: Here, we present two cases of indeterminate biliary strictures patients, whose cross- sectional imaging and endoscopic examination were nondiagnostic. The patients underwent exploratory laparotomy finally and were confirmed as malignancy. We also reviewed the recent reports in literatures regarding the evaluation of IBSs.
    Conclusions: Given the majority of the biliary strictures are malignancy, preoperative differentiation between benign and malignant is critical for choosing the best therapeutic regimen. Thus, close follow-up, multiple multidisciplinary discussion, and prompt surgical exploration are necessary for some difficult diagnostic cases.
