Background: Post-transcriptional modifications of rRNAs play important roles in biogenesis and function of ribosome. Results: NAT10 is an ATP-dependent RNA acetyltransferase responsible for N 4 -acetylcytidine formation of 18 S rRNA. Conclusion: NAT10 and ac 4 C1842 are required for pre-18 S rRNA processing. Significance: 40 S subunit formation is regulated by a single acetylation of 18 S rRNA, implying a regulatory mechanism for ribosome biogenesis by sensing the cellular energy budget.
Osimertinib is the only EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) capable of overcoming EGFR-T790M-mutated NSCLC, but osimertinib-resistant EGFR triple mutations (Del19/T790M/C797S or L858R/T790M/C797S) have been reported. Although allosteric EGFR TKIs (eg. EAI-045) which potentially overcome L858R/T790M/C797S have been identified, there are no effective inhibitors against Del19/T790M/C797S. In this study, we identified CH7233163 as having the potential to overcome EGFR-Del19/T790M/C797S. CH7233163 showed potent antitumor activities against tumor with EGFR-Del19/T790M/C797S in vitro and in vivo. In addition to EGFR-Del19/T790M/C797S, the characterization assays showed that CH7233163 more selectively inhibits various types of EGFR mutants (eg. L858R/T790M/C797S, L858R/T790M, Del19/T790M, Del19 and L858R) over wild-type (WT). Furthermore, crystal structure analysis suggested that CH7233163 is a non-covalent ATP competitive inhibitor for EGFR-Del19/T790M/C797S that utilizes multiple interactions with the EGFR's αC-helix-in conformation to achieve potent inhibitory activity and mutant selectivity. Therefore, we conclude that CH7233163 is a potentially effective therapy for osimertinib resistant patients, especially in cases of EGFR-Del19/T790M/C797S.
The rumen microbiota comprises a vast range of bacterial taxa, which may affect the production of high‐quality meat in Japanese Black cattle. The aim of this study was to identify core rumen microbiota in rumen fluid samples collected from 74 Japanese Black cattle raised under different dietary conditions using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing. In the rumen of fattening Japanese Black cattle, 10 bacterial taxa, showing >1% average relative abundance and >95% prevalence, irrespective of the dietary conditions and the fattening periods, were identified as the core rumen bacterial taxa, which accounted for approximately 80% of the rumen microbiota in Japanese Black cattle. Additionally, population dynamics of the core rumen bacterial taxa revealed two distinct patterns: Prevotella spp. and unclassified Bacteroidales decreased in the mid‐fattening period, whereas unclassified Clostridiales, unclassified Ruminococcaceae, Ruminococcus spp., and unclassified Christensenellaceae increased during the same period. Therefore, the present study reports the wide distribution of the core rumen bacterial taxa in Japanese Black cattle, and the complementary nature of the population dynamics of these core taxa, which may ensure stable rumen fermentation during the fattening period.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
