Rapid Determination of Saponins in the Honey-Fried Processing of Rhizoma Cimicifugae by Near Infrared Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy.
ObjectiveA model of Near Infrared Diffuse Reflectance Spectroscopy (NIR-DRS) was established for the first time to determine the content of Shengmaxinside I in the honey-fried processing of Rhizoma Cimicifugae.MethodsShengmaxinside I content was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the data of the honey-fried processing of Rhizoma Cimicifugae samples from different batches of different origins by NIR-DRS were collected by TQ Analyst 8.0. Partial Least Squares (PLS) analysis was used to establish a near-infrared quantitative model.ResultsThe determination coefficient R² was 0.9878. The Cross-Validation Root Mean Square Error (RMSECV) was 0.0193%, validating the model with a validation set. The Root Mean Square Error of Prediction (RMSEP) was 0.1064%. The ratio of the standard deviation for the validation samples to the standard error of prediction (RPD) was 5.5130.ConclusionThis method is convenient and efficient, and the experimentally established model has good prediction ability, and can be used for the rapid determination of Shengmaxinside I content in the honey-fried processing of Rhizoma Cimicifugae

Genome Composition and Divergence of the Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Originating in China.
An in-depth annotation of the newly discovered coronavirus (2019-nCoV) genome has revealed differences between 2019-nCoV and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) or SARS-like coronaviruses. A systematic comparison identified 380 amino acid substitutions between these coronaviruses, which may have caused functional and pathogenic divergence of 2019-nCoV
Ukuran Organ Sistem Reproduksi Itik Jantan Yang Disuplementasi Probiotik Mep+ Berbagai Dosis Selama 30 Hari
Probiotics MEP+ can increase fowl weight and weft efficiency, therefore it is important to know probiotics MEP+ effect at different dosage toward reproduction aspect. This research aimed to examine duck reproduction organ size suplemented with probiotics MEP+ with different dosage within 30 days. This research used Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 4 treatments with different dosages within 30 days which was without probiotic\u27s application or control (K), 0,75 ml/kg wefts (P1) dose, 1,5 ml/kg wefts (P2) dose, a n d 3 ml/kg wefts (P3) dose. Each treatment repeated 8 times. Total 40 ducks raised in floor dry cage system. At 31st day of treatment duck reproduction system organ was measured. Whole results show increase average data (±SD) for weight of both right and left testis, and liver weight with highly probiotics dosage it, however the analysis result statistic not significant (P>0,05) except weight of right left testis with duck weight or gonadosomatic indeks (GSI) were very significant (P<0,01) among all treatment at different dosages was compared control. The results is confirmed that probiotic\u27s MEP+ treatment with different dosages within 30 days gave no effect towards duck reproduction system organ size except to gonadosomatic indeks (GSI) male duck

Inhibition of Influenza A Virus Replication by TRIM14 via Its Multifaceted Protein–Protein Interaction With NP
Influenza A virus (IAV) is a worldwide ongoing health threat causing diseases in both humans and animals. The interaction between IAV and host is a dynamic and evolving process that influences the pathogenicity and host specificity of the virus. TRIM14, a member of tripartite motif (TRIM) family, has been demonstrated to possess a strong capability of regulating type I interferon and NF-κB induction in host defense against viral infection. In this study, we found that TRIM14 could restrict the replication of IAV in a type I interferon and NF-κB independent manner. Mechanistically, different domains of TRIM14 could selectively interact with the viral nucleoprotein (NP), resulting in disparate influences on the RNP formation and viral replication. In particular, the PRYSPRY domain of TRIM14 exhibited a potent inhibitory activity on NP protein stability and IAV replication. On the contrary, the ΔS2 domain could rather antagonize the function of PRYSPRY domain and promote the IAV RNP formation by stabilizing NP. At the biochemical level, TRIM14-NP interaction could induce the K48-linked ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of NP. Moreover, due to the rapid degradation of newly synthesized NP, TRIM14 could effectively block the translocation of NP from cytoplasm to nucleus thus further restrain the propagation of IAV in host cells. Taken together, our study has unraveled a previously unknown mechanism of TRIM14 mediated inhibition on RNP formation and influenza virus replication, and provides a new paradigm of complex and multifaceted host–pathogen interaction between ISG and viral protein

Identification and expression analysis of EDR1-like genes in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) in response to Golovinomyces orontii
ENHANCED DISEASE RESISTANCE1 (EDR1) encodes a Raf-like mitogen-activated protein kinase, and it acts as a negative regulator of disease resistance and ethylene-induced senescence. Mutations in the EDR1 gene can enhance resistance to powdery mildew both in monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants. However, little is known about EDR1-like gene members from a genome-wide perspective in plants. In this study, the tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) EDR1-like gene family was first systematically analyzed. We identified 19 EDR1-like genes in tobacco, and compared them to those from Arabidopsis, tomato and rice. Phylogenetic analyses divided the EDR1-like gene family into six clades, among them monocot and dicot plants were respectively divided into two sub-clades. NtEDR1-1A and NtEDR1-1B were classified into clade I in which the other members have been reported to negatively regulate plant resistance to powdery mildew. The expression patterns of tobacco EDR1-like genes were analyzed after plants were challenged by Golovinomyces orontii, and showed that several other EDR1-like genes were induced after infection, as well as NtEDR1-1A and NtEDR1-1B. Expression analysis showed that NtEDR1-13 and NtEDR1-16 had exclusively abundant expression patterns in roots and leaves, respectively, and the remaining NtEDR1-like members were actively expressed in most of the tissue/organ samples investigated. Our findings will contribute to further study of the physiological functions of EDR1-like genes in tobacco
Type-I-IFN-Stimulated Gene TRIM5γ Inhibits HBV Replication by Promoting HBx Degradation
To understand the molecular mechanisms that
mediate the anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) effect
of interferon (IFN) therapy, we conduct highthroughput
bimolecular fluorescence complementation
screening to identify potential physical
interactions between the HBx protein and 145 IFNstimulated
genes (ISGs). Seven HBx-interacting
ISGs have consistent and significant inhibitory effects
on HBV replication, among which TRIM5g suppresses
HBV replication by promoting K48-linked
ubiquitination and degradation of the HBx protein
on the K95 ubiquitin site. The B-Box domain of
TRIM5g under overexpression conditions is sufficient
to trigger HBx degradation and is responsible
both for interacting with HBx and recruiting
TRIM31, which is an ubiquitin ligase that triggers
HBx ubiquitination. High expression levels of
TRIM5g in IFN-a-treated HBV patients might indicate
a better therapeutic effect. Thus, our studies identify
a crucial role for TRIM5g and TRIM31 in promoting
HBx degradation, which may facilitate the development
of therapeutic agents for the treatment of patients
with IFN-resistant HBV infection
Interferon-Inducible Cholesterol-25-Hydroxylase Inhibits Hepatitis C Virus Replication via Distinct Mechanisms
Cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (CH25H) as an interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) has recently been shown to exert broad antiviral activity through the production of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC), which is believed to inhibit the virus-cell membrane fusion during viral entry. However, little is known about the function of CH25H on HCV infection and replication and whether antiviral function of CH25H is exclusively mediated by 25HC. In the present study, we have found that although 25HC produced by CH25H can inhibit HCV replication, CH25H mutants lacking the hydroxylase activity still carry the antiviral activity against HCV but not other viruses such as MHV-68. Further studies have revealed that CH25H can interact with the NS5A protein of HCV and inhibit its dimer formation, which is essential for HCV replication. Thus, our work has uncovered a novel mechanism by which CH25H restricts HCV replication, suggesting that CH25H inhibits viral infection through both 25HC-dependent and independent events
