Buffered metal concentration-dependent rate of conversion of SHC to CoII-SHC by CbiK via steady-state kinetics. (a) UV–visible absorbance of SHC (4.3 μM) before (black line) and 4 h after (red line) incubation with CoII (100 μM) and CbiK (0.5 μM) in the presence of His (1 mM). (b) Formation of Co-SHC when SHC (5 μM) was incubated with CoII (100 μM) in the presence (red lines) or absence (black lines) of a histidine metal buffer (1 mM) and CbiK (0.5 μM, as labeled). (c) CbiK-catalyzed metalation of SHC (initial concentration 5 μM) when available [CoaqII] was buffered using NTA or EGTA to achieve sub-nanomolar concentrations (Table S3). Initial rates (v0) were calculated from linear fits of the data for the first 2 min of reaction at each condition (shown by dashed lines). (d) Steady-state kinetics for CoII insertion into SHC by CbiK. Initial rates of metalation (v0) relative to enzyme concentration ([E]tot = 0.375 μM) were determined at varying available [CoII] (see Table S3 for experimental conditions). Data are the mean ± s.d. of three independent experiments. All reactions were carried out in 50 mM Hepes buffer pH 7.0, 100 mM NaCl.

Intracellular CoII availability in Salmonella under anaerobic conditions. (a) Abundance of rcnA transcripts (regulated by CoII sensor RcnR) in anaerobic Salmonella cultures grown in LB media, measured by qPCR. Transcript abundances are relative to the control condition (1 mM EDTA, assigned a value of 1). Data are the mean ± s.d. of three biologically independent replicates. (b) Solid line shows the calculated relationship between intracellular available [CoII] and DNA occupancy of the CoII sensor RcnR in Salmonella.(14) Fold changes in rcnA gene expression (from panel (a)) were converted to DNA occupancies of RcnR to determine intracellular CoII availabilities for each culture. Red crosses in panel (a) indicate the minimum and maximum observed fold changes in gene expression and defined the boundary conditions (θD of 0.01 and 0.99) for the dynamic range of the sensor response in panel (b).

GTP-dependent CobW metallochaperone elevates the available free energy of CoII binding. (a) Free energies of CoII-complex formation in the CbiK versus CobW/CobNST pathways (free energy calculations in Table S4). Bold arrows denote CoII transfer. In the early cobalt insertion pathway, binding of the substrate SHC provides sufficient thermodynamic driving force for the chelatase CbiK to acquire CoII from the intracellular milieu of idealized Salmonella without the need of an additional chaperone (1). Conversely, in the late cobalt insertion pathway, CoII transfer from the intracellular milieu to the substrate bound chelatase, CobNST-HBAD, is thermodynamically unfavorable (2, red). Binding of MgIIGTP provides the necessary free energy gradient for the chaperone CobW to acquire CoII in a cell (3) and nucleotide hydrolysis to generate MgIIGDP-CobW (4, blue) elevates the free energy of CoII binding sufficiently to enable CoII transfer to CobNST-HBAD (5). Representations of CoII-SHC and CoII-HBAD are placed below the scale reflective of undetermined free energy values. (b) Magnitude of the standard free energy for hydrolysis of GTP (dashed blue) is shown for comparison (note common scales but arbitrary placement of y-axis in panel (b)).

Kaplan Meier analysis of recurrence free and overall survival curves for VFI tertiles and BMI categories. Recurrence free and overall survival curves were generated for 492 patients categorized based on VFI into bottom (red), middle (blue), and top (green) teritles and BMI into < 25 kg/m2 (red), 25–30 kg/m2 (blue), and > 30 kg/m2 (green) categories. Kaplan Meier survival curve analysis revealed that higher VFI had poorer RFS (log rank p = 0.01) and OS (p = 0.01), but not BMI.

Univariate and multivariate cox proportional models of VFI tertiles for overall and recurrence free survival. Univariate and multivariate cox proportional model survival curves were generated for 492 patients based on the bottom (red), middle (blue), and top (green) VFI tertiles. Multivariate analysis was performed with patient age, sex, tumor stage, and VFI as covariates for RFS. Patient age, sex, race, and VFI were used as covariates in the multivariate model for OS. Univariate (Wald p = 0.01) and multivariate (p = 0.005) analysis showed that a bottom VFI tertile was associated with a significantly better recurrence free survival. Univariate analysis showed that the bottom VFI tertile (p = 0.01) was associated with a significantly better OS. However, VFI lost its significance and was not included in the final multivariate model for OS.

Mechanism of action (MOA) of DZF. The orange line represents the MOA of DZF confirmed in this study, the green line represents the MOA of DZF verified by our team in previous studies, and the black line represents the possible MOA of DZF related to the PKA pathway. In this study, DZF was used to intervene DIO mice and 3T3-L3 adipose cells, and it was found that DZF could improve the excessive lipid deposition in adipose cells, promote the expression of PKA, phosphorylate CREB, activate PGC-1α and thus promote the expression of UCP1, causing WAT browning. Previous studies have confirmed that DZF inhibits the expression of adipogenesis-related enzymes ACC, and FAS and promotes the expression of key lipolysis enzyme HSL, which may also be related to the activation of PKA pathway. Note: DIO, diet-induced obese; DZF, Dai-Zong-Fang; ACC, acetyl-CoA carboxylase; FAS, fatty acid synthetase; HSL, hormone-sensitive lipase. (Pictrue by Figdraw).

Model for how Seb1 promotes cotranscriptional pre-rRNA processing.a NET-seq and CRAC analysis in wild-type budding and fission yeasts show that RNAPI frequently pauses when transcribing the long rRNA gene35,36. We propose that the cooperative binding of Seb1 to the RNAPI complex and to nascent pre-rRNA contributes to RNAPI pausing, thereby facilitating recognition of processing sites by the SSU-processome (gray pacman), which will cotranscriptionally (C) cleave the nascent pre-rRNA. A minority of pre-rRNAs that are not processed cotranscriptionally will be cleaved posttranscriptionally (P) after transcription termination27. b In the absence of Seb1, RNAPI progresses faster along the rRNA gene, impairing the efficiency of cotranscriptional pre-rRNA processing.

Interfacial configuration of SWNT/Gr van der Waals heterostructures. a,b) 3D perspective atomic models representing a “line contact” mode and a “surface contact” mode, respectively, between Gr and the SWNT lower wall. The contact areas at the interface are highlighted in red. c) TEM image showing prominent lattice distortion of Gr when it approaches a SWNT. d) Plot revealing the projective interatomic distance shrinkage ratio of the graphene lattice as a function of the distance from the SWNT left wall (red triangles). The interatomic distance represented in the inset is measured in the red‐boxed region in (b) along the purple line direction from left to right. The intrinsic interatomic distance in a benzene ring of Gr is represented as d, while the deformed interatomic distance due to out‐of‐plane distortion is denoted as D. The inclination angles to the horizontal of the corresponding benzene rings are plotted as the blue circles. e) Formation energy of the (12,12) SWNT/Gr heterostructure as a function of the compressive strain of Gr, which determines the out‐of‐plane distortion of the Gr at the interface. f) Formation energy of the SWNT/Gr heterostructure as a function of the stacking angle (α) between the SWNT lower wall and Gr. The compression ratio of Gr in this case is 6%. g) Parallel projection showing the interface configuration of a DFT‐relaxed (13,11)‐R SWNT/Gr heterostructure with a “surface contact” mode, in which a large area at the interface displays an AA stacking configuration (yellow‐shaded region). h) Central projection of the (13,11)‐R SWNT/Gr heterostructure interface, where most areas adopt staggered stacking (close to AB stacking, blue‐shaded region) with only a small region having AA stack (yellow‐shaded region). i) DFT‐calculated density of states of an intrinsic metallic (12,12) SWNT (black line) and a (12, 12) SWNT/Gr heterostructure in a “surface contact” mode (red line), respectively. j) DFT‐calculated density of states of an intrinsic semiconducting (20, 0) SWNT (black line) and the (20, 0) SWNT/Gr heterostructure in a “surface contact” mode (red line), respectively.

A typical example showing the identification of the SWNT handedness by one TEM image. a) TEM image of an aligned SWNT on Gr. b) FFT image of (a). Three principal layer line reflections contributed from the SWNT are labeled by L1 , L2 , and L3 , respectively. The spacings of L1 and L2 with respect to the equatorial layer line are marked as D1 and D2 , respectively. The white hexagon labels the reflexes contributed from the SWNT lower wall and Gr, which are superimposed. The blue hexagon marks the reflexes from the SWNT upper wall. A pair of L1 principal layer lines contributed by the upper SWNT is labeled by a blue dashed line, while the other pair of L1 reflexes contributed by the lower SWNT wall is marked by a white dashed line. They correspond to the helix along a zigzag direction in a SWNT that adopts the minimum screw pitch, as represented by the blue spiral in (c). Inset on the bottom left corner is the reflexes from Gr in the vicinity of the SWNT. The intensity line profile on the bottom right corner is taken along the white arrow in (b). c) Projective view of the SWNT/Gr atomic model based on (a).

Dysregulation of the microbiota–gut–brain axis in the pathogenesis of Parkinson’s disease. Gut dysbiosis increases intestinal barrier permeability and leakage of bacterial products from the lumen to the lamina propria, activating inflammatory responses and leading to gut inflammation. These inflammatory processes induce misfolding of α-synuclein, which results in its aberrant aggregation and accumulation in the gut and enteric neurons. α-synuclein aggregates are then transported from the gut to the brain through the vagus nerve, eventually triggering an inflammatory response of the microglia. Alternatively, pro-inflammatory cytokines released during gut inflammation might infiltrate the bloodstream, leading to a systemic inflammation that further increases the permeability of the blood–brain barrier and allows the infiltration of immune cells into the brain. These processes result in neuroinflammation and consequent neurodegeneration. Created with Biorender.

NLRP3 inflammasome activation. The activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome is triggered by a number of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) or damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs). PAMPs bind to Toll-like receptors (TLR) present on the cell membrane and upregulate the transcription of NLRP3 inflammasome components. DAMPs, such as ROS, mtDNA, or the externalization of cardiolipin to the outer mitochondrial membrane, also activate NLRP3. Assembly of the inflammasome activates caspase 1, which in turn cleaves pro-IL-1β and pro-IL-18 into IL-1β and IL-18, respectively. Created with Biorender.
