Revisiting the Gram-negative lipoprotein paradigm.
UNLABELLED The processing of lipoproteins (Lpps) in Gram-negative bacteria is generally considered an essential pathway. Mature lipoproteins in these bacteria are triacylated, with the final fatty acid addition performed by Lnt, an apolipoprotein N-acyltransferase. The mature lipoproteins are then sorted by the Lol system, with most Lpps inserted into the outer membrane (OM). We demonstrate her...
متن کاملRevisiting Skip-Gram Negative Sampling Model with Regularization
We revisit skip-gram negative sampling (SGNS), a popular neural-network based approach to learning distributed word representation. We first point out the ambiguity issue undermining the SGNSmodel, in the sense that the word vectors can be entirely distorted without changing the objective value. To resolve this issue, we rectify the SGNSmodel with quadratic regularization. A theoretical justifi...
متن کاملSevere Gram-Negative Intertrigo of the Feet
Introduction: Intertrigo is a common disease of the skin usually caused by fungi and/or bacteria, often involving major or minor skin folds. Here, we report a case of severe, ulcerative intertrigo of all interdigital folds of both feet caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a patient with type II diabetes who acquired the infection during a trip to Senegal. Case Pres...
متن کاملRevisiting the hyperhemolysis paradigm.
In this issue of Blood, 2 articles test fundamental hypotheses relating intravascular hemolysis to sickle cell disease (SCD) pathogenesis. Detterich et al confirm a role for hemolysis and cell-free plasma hemoglobin (Hb) in pulmonary and systemic endothelial dysfunction in humans. Almeida et al show in mice that hemolysis induces inflammation that is caused by nitric oxide (NO) scavenging and a...
متن کاملPrediction of lipoprotein signal peptides in Gram-negative bacteria.
A method to predict lipoprotein signal peptides in Gram-negative Eubacteria, LipoP, has been developed. The hidden Markov model (HMM) was able to distinguish between lipoproteins (SPaseII-cleaved proteins), SPaseI-cleaved proteins, cytoplasmic proteins, and transmembrane proteins. This predictor was able to predict 96.8% of the lipoproteins correctly with only 0.3% false positives in a set of S...
