The LBL multilayer coatings of (PGA/MCS) films surface possessed a reduced amount of protein adsorption. These results indicated that it can resist the protein adsorption and can enhance the biocompatibility towards the biomedical application through the protein interaction. The (PGA/MCS) films has the potential to utilization as a good biomaterial for biomedical purposes to intensify the bio-active surface.A novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV2 has now spread globally. Replication/transcription machinery of this virus consists of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (nsp12 or RdRp) and its two cofactors nsp7 and nsp8 proteins. Hence, RdRp has emerged as a promising target to control COVID-19. In the present study, we are reporting a novel inhibitor VTRM1.1 against the RdRp protein of SARS CoV2. A series of antivirals were tested for binding to the catalytic residues of the active site of RdRp protein. In-silico screening, molecular mechanics, molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) analysis suggest ribavirin, and remdesivir have good interaction with the binding site of the RdRp protein as compared to other antiviral investigated. Hence, ribavirin and remdesivir were used for the denovo fragments based antiviral design. This design, along with docking and MDS analysis, identified a novel inhibitor VTRM1 that has better interaction with RdRp as compared to their parent molecules. Further, to produce a lead-like compound, retrosynthetic analysis, and combinatorial synthesis were performed, which produces 1000 analogs of VTRM1. These analogs were analysed by docking and MDS analysis that identified VTRM1.1 as a possible lead to inhibit RdRp protein. This lead has a good docking score, favourable binding energy and bind at catalytic residues of the active site of RdRp. The VTRM1.1 also interacts with RdRp in the presence of RNA primer and other cofactors. It was also seen that, VTRM1.1 do not have off-target in human. Therefore, the present study suggests a hybrid inhibitor VTRM1.1 for the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of SARS CoV2 that may be useful to control infection caused by COVID-19.To investigate the effects of Hericium erinaceus polysaccharide (HEP) on immunity in Muscovy duck reovirus (MDRV)-infected ducklings and explore its mechanism of action, an MDRV contact-infection model was established. Then, we investigated the influence of HEP on morphology of main immune organs in MDRV-infected ducklings by HE staining, while antioxidant capacity (T-AOC, MDA), serum protein levels (TP, ALB, GLO), complement levels (C3, C4) and antibody levels (IgA, IgM, IgG) were detected. Apoptotic indexes (apoptosisi rate and FAS-L) were also quantified by TUNEL method and immunohistochemical staining. Meanwhile, FADD and CytC (apoptosis-related genes), were tested by quantitative RT-PCR. Results showed that HEP could reduce the injuries of immune organs caused by MDRV. Additionally, HEP markedly diminished MDA (p less then 0.01), while significantly increased T-AOC, TP, ALB, GLO, C3, C4, IgA, IgM and IgG (p less then 0.01 or p less then 0.05). Then, HEP shifted apoptosis time to an early MDRV-infected stage and reduced apoptosis at later MDRV-infected stage. This was associated with changes of FADD and CytC. Collectively, our data suggested that HEP could reduce the immunesuppression by many ways, such as decreasing organs' injuries, improving antioxidant capacity, serum proteins levels, antibody levels and complement levels, while diminish the apoptosis by lowering the FADD and CytC.Tension wood is a type of defect of wood, however, it has some especial character and structure. In this study, cellulase lignin structures in normal and tension wood of Poplar 107 (Populus × euramericana cv. '74/76') were compared using ultraviolet (UV), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), Raman and magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and elemental analysis. The results showed that the lignins in both normal and tension wood were dominated by syringyl units, followed by guaiacyl and p-hydroxyphenyl units. The FT-IR result presented that the relative intensity of syringyl units in normal and tension wood were 0.87 and 0.90. The contents of aliphatic hydroxyl, methoxyl, condensed phenolic hydroxyl and carboxyl of lignin in tension wood were higher than those of phenolic hydroxyl groups and β-5. The contents of β-O-4, β-β and β-1 in tension wood were similar with those in normal wood. click here The average per-C9-unit formulae of the lignin in normal and tension wood of Poplar 107 were C9H7.21O1.79 (OH)1.17_x0001_(OCH3)1.55 and C9H7.23O1.76(OH)1.25_x0001_(OCH3)1.62, respectively.The present work shows the application of nickel- and magnesium-crosslinked gellan microspheres in ionic and affinity capture strategies to directly extract hSCOMT from the complex Komagataella pastoris lysate through a simple batch method. Both formulations present similar morphology, but nickel-crosslinked microspheres present higher crosslinker content and smaller diameters. Four different capture strategies were established, by manipulating the ionic strength, pH, temperature and competing agents' presence. The most promising results for hSCOMT capture and clarification were obtained employing an ionic strategy with nickel-crosslinked microspheres and an affinity strategy with magnesium-crosslinked microspheres at 4 °C. The bioactivity results (200%) and purification degree (70%) of hSCOMT captured by the ionic strategy were more satisfactory probably due to the soft ionic conditions used (100 mM NaCl). For the first time, the gellan polysaccharide versatility was demonstrated in the microsphere application for the direct capture of hSCOMT from a complex lysate, simplifying isolation biotechnological procedures.Lactoferrin (Lf) is a bioactive milk-derived protein with remarkable wide-spectrum antifungal activity. To deepen our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying Lf cytotoxicity, the role of plasma membrane ergosterol- and sphingolipid-rich lipid rafts and their association with the proton pump Pma1p was explored. Pma1p was previously identified as a Lf-binding protein. Results showed that bovine Lf (bLf) perturbs ergosterol-rich lipid rafts organization by inducing intracellular accumulation of ergosterol. Using yeast mutant strains lacking lipid rafts-associated proteins or enzymes involved in the synthesis of ergosterol and sphingolipids, we found that perturbations in the composition of these membrane domains increase resistance to bLf-induced yeast cell death. Also, when Pma1p-lipid rafts association is compromised in the Pma1-10 mutant and in the absence of the Pma1p-binding protein Ast1p, the bLf killing activity is impaired. Altogether, results showed that the perturbation of lipid rafts and the inhibition of both Pma1p and V-ATPase activities mediate the antifungal activity of bLf.
