Genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) are indispensable for studying and engineering cellular metabolism. Here, we present i CHO3K, a community-consensus, manually-curated reconstruction of the Chinese Hamster metabolic network. In addition to accounting for 11004 reactions associated with 3597 genes, i CHO3K includes 3489 protein structures and str...
The aggregation of α-synuclein is crucial to the development of Lewy body diseases, including Parkinson’s disease and dementia with Lewy bodies. The aggregation pathway of α-synuclein typically involves a defined sequence of nucleation, elongation, and secondary nucleation, exhibiting prion-like spreading. This study employed Raman spectroscopy and...
Genome-scale metabolic models (GEMs) and other constraint-based models (CBMs) play a pivotal role in understanding biological phenotypes and advancing research in areas like metabolic engineering, human disease modelling, drug discovery, and personalized medicine. Despite their growing application, a significant challenge remains in ensuring the re...
Background
Melanoma, the most lethal skin cancer type, occurs more frequently in Parkinson's disease (PD), and PD is more frequent in melanoma patients, suggesting disease mechanisms overlap. α‐synuclein, a protein that accumulates in PD brain, and the oncogene DJ‐1, which is associated with PD autosomal recessive forms, are both elevated in melano...
Salt tolerant organisms are increasingly being used for the industrial production of high‐value biomolecules due to their better adaptability compared to mesophiles. Chromohalobacter canadensis is one of the early halophiles to show promising biotechnology potential, which has not been explored to date. Advanced high throughput technologies such as...
