Phosphorylation of Staphylococcus aureus Protein-Tyrosine Kinase Affects the Function of Glucokinase and Biofilm Formation

Background: When Staphylococcus aureus is grown in the presence of high concentration of external glucose, this sugar is phosphorylated by glucokinase (glkA) to form glucose-6-phosphate. This product subsequently enters into anabolic phase, which favors biofilm formation. The presence of ROK (repressor protein, open reading frame, sugar kinase) motif, phosphate-1 and -2 sites, and tyrosine kina...

A Prospective Study Comparing Functional Imaging (18F-FDG PET) Versus Anatomical Imaging (Contrast Enhanced CT) in Dosimetric Planning for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.

 Objective(s): 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET-CT) is a well-used and established technique for lung cancer staging. Radiation therapy requires accurate target volume delineation, which is difficult in most cases due to coexisting atelectasis. The present study was performed to compare the 18F-FDG PET-CT with contrast enhanced computed tomogr...

Chemical synthesis of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles and their antibacterial activity against a clinical isolate Staphylococcus aureus

In this study, Zinc Oxide nanoparticles (ZnONPs) were synthesized by chemical method and their antibacterial efficiency against a clinical isolate of Staphylococcus aureus was studied. The Zinc Oxide nanoparticles have shown a commendable inhibition effect on the growth of most notorious bacterial pathogen S.aureus. The nanoparticles size and shapes were characterized by trans...
