Introduction: Ceftolozane–tazobactam (CT) and ceftazidime–avibactam (CZA) are new beta-lactam/beta-lactamase inhibitors (BL/IBL) antibiotics. There few data regarding their impact on Clostridioides difficile infections (CDI). The objective of our study was, therefore, to determine compare the number CDI occurring after treatment with CT or CZA carbapenem (CBP). Methods: All patients who receive...

Drosophila CREB-binding protein (dCBP) is a very large multidomain protein, which belongs to the CBP/p300 family of proteins that were first identified by their ability to bind the CREB transcription factor and the adenoviral protein E1. Since then CBP has been shown to bind to >100 additional proteins and functions in a multitude of different developmental contexts. Among other activities, CBP...

The pleiotropic cellular coactivator CREB binding protein (CBP) plays a critical role in supporting p53-dependent tumor suppressor functions. p53 has been shown to directly interact with a carboxyl-terminal region of CBP for recruitment of the coactivator to p53-responsive genes. In this report, we identify the KIX domain as a new p53 contact point on CBP. We show that both recombinant and endo...

The transcriptional co-activator CBP [CREB (cAMP-response-element-binding protein)-binding protein] and its paralogue p300 play a key role in the regulation of both activity and stability of the tumour suppressor p53. Degradation of p53 is mediated by the ubiquitin ligase MDM2 (mouse double minute protein) and is also reported to be regulated by CBP/p300. Direct protein-protein interaction betw...

in this study an ultra-broad band, low-power, and high-gain cmos distributed amplifier (cmos-da) utilizing a new gain-cell based on the inductively peaking cascaded structure is presented. it is created bycascading of inductively coupled common-source (cs) stage and regulated cascode configuration (rgc).the proposed three-stage da is simulated in 0.13 μm cmos process. it achieves flat and high ...

the graphical technique for nonlinear circuits was described that enable us to optimize circuits to obtain maximum output power, maximum efficiency or minimum intermodulation. according to this method a high power amplifier in the ka band was designed. using a nonlinear model of the transistor, optimum slope for load-line was determined so that maximum power at the output was obtainable, then ...

Thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG), an enzyme that initiates the repair of G/T and G/U mismatches, has been lately found crucial in embryonic development to maintain epigenetic stability and facilitate the active DNA demethylation. Here we report a novel role of TDG in Wnt signaling as a transcriptional coactivator of β-catenin/TCFs complex. Our data show that TDG binds to the transcriptional factor...

Acetylation of histones by p300/CBP and PCAF is considered to be a critical step in transcriptional regulation. In order to understand the role of cellular activities that modulate histone acetylation and transcription, we have purified and characterized a multiprotein cellular complex that potently inhibits the histone acetyltransferase activity of p300/CBP and PCAF. We have mapped a novel ace...

Here, we show that the IFN-beta enhanceosome activates transcription by directing the ordered recruitment of chromatin modifying and general transcription factors to the IFN-beta promoter. The enhanceosome is assembled in the nucleosome-free enhancer region of the IFN-beta gene, leading to the modification and remodeling of a strategically positioned nucleosome that masks the TATA box and the s...
