    : Nosocomial infection or Hospital Acquired Infection (HAI) is an infection caused by bacteria, parasite, or virus in the hospital, infection occur at least 72 hours since hospitalized. This infection occurs due to lack of hygiene of the environment causing microorganism infection from environment to human, infection can also occur due to transmission of microorganism from one patient to other patients. Inpatients potentially have very high risk of nosocomial infection occur due to continuous requiring treatment for more than 24 hours. Purpose: To determine the existence of aerobic bacteria that could potentially be the source of transmission of nosocomial infection in Irina A RSUP Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Manado. Method: This research was descriptive with cross sectional approach. Fourteen samples were taken from the surface of medical equipment, bed, floor, and wall of the treatment room and eight samples were taken from the air. Identification of bacteria was performed by culture on agar medium, staining gram, and biochemical test. Result: Bacillus subtilis found in nine samples (41%), Serratia liquefaciens found in five samples (22,7%), Lactobacillus found in two samples (9,1%), Staphylococcus found in two samples (9,1%), Coccus Gram negative found in two samples (9,1%), Enterobacter aerogenes found in one sample (4,5%), and Enterobacter agglomerans found in one sample (4,5%). Conclusion: Bacillus subtilis is the most bacteria which had been found in this research

    <p>(<b>a-a’</b>) Expression of a rhodopsin-promoter driven cherry-tagged Rab8a in wild-type photoreceptors is mostly concentrated in one or several puncta (arrows <b>a-a’</b>) whereas it is diffuse in the majority of <i>ninl</i> morphant photoreceptors (<b>b-b’</b>).

    <p>(<b>a</b>) Strep-SILAC and TAP (tandem affinity purification) experiments show that NINL interacts specifically with MICAL3 (Yellow). The solid line between NINL and MICAL3 symbolizes a direct interaction, whereas the dashed lines indicate interactions determined by IP. (<b>b</b>) Co-immunoprecipitation of eGFP-MICAL3 with FLAG-NINL<sup>isoB</sup>, but not with FLAG-STRAD. The immunoblot (IB) in the top panel shows that eGFP-tagged MICAL3 co-immunoprecipitated with FLAG -tagged NINL (lane 2), whereas FLAG-tagged STRAD used as a negative control (lane 3) did not. The anti-GFP immunoprecipitates are shown in the middle panel; protein input is shown in the bottom panel. Reciprocal IP experiments using anti-FLAG antibodies confirmed the co-immunoprecipitation of eGFP-tagged MICAL3 with FLAG-tagged NINL<sup>isoB</sup> (lane 2) and not with STRAD (lane 3) shown in the top panel. The anti-FLAG immunoprecipitations are shown in the middle panel; protein input is shown in the bottom panel. A co-immunoprecipitation experiment using untagged eGFP as a negative control (right panel) showed that eGFP-tagged MICAL3 immunoprecipitates with FLAG-tagged NINL<sup>isoB</sup> but not with untagged eGFP.</p

    Proposed model for CC2D2A and NINL function in trafficking, docking and fusion of rhodopsin-carrier vesicles.

    <p>1) CC2D2A binds NINL and thus provides a docking point at the base of the connecting cilium for incoming vesicles. 2) NINL binds MICAL3 which in turn binds RAB8 that is coating the rhodopsin-carrier vesicles. Since NINL also associates with the cytoplasmic dynein1 motor complex, it provides a link between the carrier vesicles and the motor generating the movement along the microtubules. 3). MICAL3 subsequently interacts with ELKS and its redox activity promotes remodeling of the docking complex resulting in fusion of the vesicle at the periciliary region.</p

    <p>(<b>a, a’</b> and inset) When expressed alone, eCFP-tagged CC2D2A (green signal) localizes to the ciliary base (basal body, accessory centriole). The cilium is marked by anti-polyglutamylated tubulin (red signal, <b>a’</b> and inset). eCFP-tagged CC2D2A (green signal; <b>b</b>) also (partly) localizes to the ciliary transition zone, which was visualized using anti-RPGRIP1L as a marker (red signal; <b>b</b>). (<b>c, c’</b> and inset) mRFP-tagged NINL isoform B was localized at the ciliary base (cilium in green, <b>c’</b> and inset). (<b>d</b> and inset) mRFP-tagged NINL isoform B (red signal) localizes adjacent to the ciliary transition zone (anti-RPGRIP1L; green signal). (<b>e-e”</b> and inset) Co-expression of mRFP-tagged NINL isoform B (red signal) and eCFP-tagged CC2D2A showed co-localization of both proteins around the ciliary base (yellow signal). (<b>f</b>) In wild-type larval zebrafish retina (4 dpf), Cc2d2a marked by anti-Cc2d2a antibodies (red signal) is localized apically to the photoreceptor basal body (marked by anti-centrin antibodies, green signal). (<b>g</b>) Ninl, stained with anti-Ninl antibodies, (red signal) is localized at the zebrafish photoreceptor ciliary base, partially overlapping with and apical to the green centrin signal. (<b>h</b>) Cc2d2a localization is unaffected by <i>ninl</i> knockdown and (<b>i</b>) Ninl localization is normal in <i>cc2d2a</i><sup><b>-/-</b></sup> larvae. (<b>j</b>) Schematic representation of the localization of Ninl and Cc2d2a in zebrafish photoreceptor cells. (<b>f-i</b>) are immunostainings on cryosections from 4 dpf larvae. Nuclei were stained with DAPI (blue signal) in all panels. Scale bars are 10 μm in a-e, and 4 μm in f-i.</p

    <p>(<b>a</b>) Yeast two-hybrid interaction assays were performed with different fragments of CC2D2A fused to the GAL4 DNA binding domain (BD) and full length NINL isoform A and B, fused to the GAL4 activation domain (AD). Activation of the reporter genes, which indicates a physical interaction, was dependent on coiled-coil (CC) domains 1 and 2 of CC2D2A and either NINL isoform A or B. (<b>b</b>) The top panel of the immunoblot (IB) shows that FLAG-tagged CC2D2A, but not the FLAG-tagged LRRK2 that was included as a negative control, was co-precipitated with HA-tagged NINL isoform B using a rat monoclonal antibody directed against the HA-epitope. Protein input is shown in the lower panel; anti-HA precipitates are shown in the middle panel. (<b>c</b>) In a reciprocal experiment, HA-tagged NINL<sup>isoB</sup> was co-precipitated with FLAG-tagged CC2D2A, but not with FLAG-tagged LRRK2. Protein input is shown in the lower panel; anti-FLAG precipitates are shown in the middle panel.</p
