    Abstract Introduction and importance: Acute appendicitis is the most common abdominal surgical emergency in the world and often requires surgical intervention. One of the complications of appendicitis is abscess formation. In rare cases, a localised abscess can occur in the adjacent organs, such as the iliac and psoas muscles. Sacroiliitis occurring secondary to, or concomitant with, acute appendicitis is extremely rare. However, a missed diagnosis of either or both conditions can lead to serious complications, including mortality.
    Case presentation: A 27-year-old male patient presented to the emergency department with a history of acute severe right hip pain that was aggravated by movement and associated with nausea and vomiting. CT suggested acute uncomplicated appendicitis with no localised contamination. He underwent an emergent laparoscopy which showed mild appendiceal inflammation and appendicectomy was performed. He became septic a few hours after the operation, resulting in admission to the high dependency care unit for close observation. On review the following day, he reported ongoing right hip pain and lower back pain with a new onset inability to weight-bear. An MRI scan was performed which showed features of infection around the right sacroiliac joint and Staphylococcus aureus grew in his blood culture. A diagnosis of acute pyogenic sacroiliitis was then made. The patient was treated with IV antibiotics for a total of four weeks, followed by two weeks of oral antibiotics.
    Clinical discussion: Acute pyogenic sacroiliitis is one of the rarer conditions seen that can mimic the acute abdomen, in this case acute appendicitis. MRI is the best diagnostic modality in sacroiliitis, in comparison to CT for appendicitis. In most cases of acute appendicitis, mixed bacteria including aerobes and anaerobes are seen in the blood culture while staphylococcus aureus is seen mostly in acute pyogenic sacroiliitis. Staphylococcus aureus-induced appendicitis is reported in less than 3.7 % of cases. An early diagnosis of either or both conditions can significantly reduce complications and, more importantly, expedite implementation of appropriate treatment.
    Conclusion: In our case we present a combination acute appendicitis, acute sacroiliitis and staphylococcus aureus septicaemia and provide proof that acute pyogenic sacroiliitis can be a rare complication of acute appendicitis. Thus, a high clinical index of suspicion should be considered in the appropriate clinical scenario.

    Abstract Phosphorylation is a reversible post-translational modification that alters the functions of proteins to govern various cellular events, including cell signaling. Kinases catalyze the transfer of a phosphoryl group onto the hydroxyl residue of serine, threonine, and tyrosine, while phosphatases catalyze the removal. Unregulated kinase and phosphatase activity have been observed in various cancers and neurodegenerative diseases. Despite their importance in cell biology, the role of phosphatases in cellular events has yet to be fully characterized, partly due to the lack of tools to identify phosphatase-substrate pairs in a biological context. The method called kinase-catalyzed biotinylation to identify phosphatase substrates (K-BIPS) was developed to remedy the lack of information surrounding phosphatase biology, particularly focused on substrate identification. In the K-BIPS method, the γ-phosphoryl modified adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) analog, ATP-biotin, is used by kinases to biotin-label phosphoproteins. Because phosphatases must initially remove a phosphoryl group for subsequent biotinylation by ATP-biotin, phosphatase substrates are identified in K-BIPS by comparing biotinylated proteins in the presence and absence of active phosphatases. K-BIPS has been used to discover novel substrates of both serine/threonine and tyrosine phosphatases. This chapter describes the K-BIPS method to enable the identification of substrates to any phosphatases of interest, which will augment studies of phosphatase biology.

    Abstract Protein phosphorylation is catalyzed by kinases to regulate a large variety of cellular activities, including growth and signal transduction. Methods to identify kinase substrates are crucial to fully understand phosphorylation-mediated cellular events and disease states. Here, we report a set of protocols to identify substrates of a target kinase using Kinase-catalyzed Biotinylation with Inactivated Lysates for Discovery of Substrates (K-BILDS). As described in these protocols, K-BILDS involves inactivation of endogenous kinases in lysates, followed by addition of an active exogenous kinase and the γ-phosphate-modified ATP analog ATP-biotin for kinase-catalyzed biotinylation of cellular substrates. Avidin enrichment isolates biotinylated substrates of the active kinase, which can be monitored by western blot. Substrates of the target kinase can also be discovered using mass spectrometry analysis. Key advantages of K-BILDS include compatibility with any lysate, tissue homogenate, or complex mixture of biological relevance and any active kinase of interest. K-BILDS is a versatile method for studying or discovering substrates of a kinase of interest to characterize biological pathways thoroughly. © 2023 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

    Abstract The circadian clock orchestrates an organism's endogenous processes with environmental 24 h cycles. Redox homeostasis and the circadian clock regulate one another to negate the potential effects of our planet's light/dark cycle on the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and attain homeostasis. Selenoproteins are an important class of redox-related enzymes that have a selenocysteine residue in the active site. This study reports functional understanding of how environmental and endogenous circadian rhythms integrate to shape the selenoproteome in a model eukaryotic cell. We mined quantitative proteomic data for the 24 selenoproteins of the picoeukaryote

    Abstract Kinases are responsible for phosphorylation of proteins and are involved in many biological processes, including cell signaling. Identifying the kinases that phosphorylate specific phosphoproteins is critical to augment the current understanding of cellular events. Herein, we report a general protocol to study the kinases of a target substrate phosphoprotein using kinase-catalyzed crosslinking and immunoprecipitation (K-CLIP). K-CLIP uses a photocrosslinking γ-phosphoryl-modified ATP analog, such as ATP-arylazide, to covalently crosslink substrates to kinases with UV irradiation. Crosslinked kinase-substrate complexes can then be enriched by immunoprecipitating the target substrate phosphoprotein, with bound kinase(s) identified using Western blot or mass spectrometry analysis. K-CLIP is an adaptable chemical tool to investigate and discover kinase-substrate pairs, which will promote characterization of complex phosphorylation-mediated cell biology. © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

    Abstract The human brain is able to quickly and accurately identify objects in a dynamic visual world. Objects evoke different patterns of neural activity in the visual system, which reflect object category memberships. However, the underlying dimensions of object representations in the brain remain unclear. Recent research suggests that objects similarity to humans is one of the main dimensions used by the brain to organise objects, but the nature of the human-similarity features driving this organisation are still unknown. Here, we investigate the relative contributions of perceptual and conceptual features of humanness to the representational organisation of objects in the human visual system. We collected behavioural judgements of human-similarity of various objects, which were compared with time-resolved neuroimaging responses to the same objects. The behavioural judgement tasks targeted either perceptual or conceptual humanness features to determine their respective contribution to perceived human-similarity. Behavioural and neuroimaging data revealed significant and unique contributions of both perceptual and conceptual features of humanness, each explaining unique variance in neuroimaging data. Furthermore, our results showed distinct spatio-temporal dynamics in the processing of conceptual and perceptual humanness features, with later and more lateralised brain responses to conceptual features. This study highlights the critical importance of social requirements in information processing and organisation in the human brain.
