Adaptations of Bacillus shacheensis HNA-14 required for long-term survival under osmotic challenge: a multi-omics perspective.

ABSTRACT: Genomic sequence, transcriptomic, metabolomic and fatty acid analyses of strain HNA-14 were performed to understand the mechanism of salt tolerance for long-term survival. The results indicated that strain HNA-14 has different osmotic resistance mechanisms for long-term survival and short-term salt stress. The cells mainly synthesized compatible solutes to resist osmotic pressure when cultured under nutrient deficient conditions, while they can slow down the synthesis rate and uptake from the environment when cultured under a nutritionally rich environment. Also, the amounts of branched and unsaturated fatty acids in the cell membrane are maintained to a high degree (>50%) to maintain the fluidity of the cell membrane; when the cells are cultured in a high osmotic environment for long-term survival, they may increase the content of branched fatty acids and phosphoric fatty acids to increase the fluidity of the cell membrane to resist the high osmotic pressure.

Project description:Students' perceptions of their mathematics ability vary by gender and seem to influence science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) degree choice. Related, students' perceptions during academic difficulty are increasingly studied in educational psychology, suggesting a link between such perceptions and task persistence. Despite interest in examining the gender disparities in STEM, these concepts have not been considered in tandem. In this manuscript, we investigate how perceived ability under challenge-in particular in mathematics domains-influences entry into the most sex-segregated and mathematics-intensive undergraduate degrees: physics, engineering, mathematics, and computer science (PEMC). Using nationally representative Education Longitudinal Study of 2002 (ELS) data, we estimate the influence of perceived ability under challenging conditions on advanced high school science course taking, selection of an intended STEM major, and specific major type 2 years after high school. Demonstrating the importance of specificity when discussing how gender influences STEM career pathways, the intersecting effects of gender and perceived ability under mathematics challenge were distinct for each scientific major category. Perceived ability under challenge in secondary school varied by gender, and was highly predictive of selecting PEMC and health sciences majors. Notably, women's 12th grade perceptions of their ability under mathematics challenge increased their probability of selecting PEMC majors over and above biology. In addition, gender moderated the effect of growth mindset on students' selection of health science majors. Perceptions of ability under challenge in general and verbal domains also influenced retention in and declaration of certain STEM majors. The implications of these results are discussed, with particular attention to access to advanced scientific coursework in high school and interventions aimed at enhancing young women's perceptions of their ability, in particular in response to the potentially inhibiting influence of stereotype threat on their pathways to scientific degrees.

Project description:BackgroundAntibodies to human neutrophil alloantigens (HNA) are involved in the pathophysiology of several clinical conditions including transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI), alloimmune and autoimmune neutropenia, and febrile nonhemolytic transfusion reactions leading to neutropenia. The cognate antigens are polymorphic structures expressed on several glycoproteins on the neutrophils, i.e., antigens HNA-1a, -1b, -1c, and -1d on Fc-γ-receptor IIIb; HNA-2 on CD177; HNA-3a and -3b on choline transporter-like protein 2; HNA-4a and -4b on CD11b/αM subunit of the αMβ2-integrin (CD11b/CD18, Mac-1, CR3); and HNA-5a and -5b on αL-subunit (CD11a) of the αLβ2 integrin (CD11a/CD18), leukocyte function associated molecule (LFA)-1. Currently, there is a lacuna of diagnostic methods for detection of HNA in India. This study aimed to determine the HNA frequencies in Indians, estimate the risk of alloimmunization, and prepare typed neutrophil panels, which can be used to detect HNA antibodies in neutropenia cases.Material and methodsEDTA blood samples were collected from random 1,054 blood donors. HNA-2 was phenotyped on fresh EDTA samples using FITC labelled monoclonal anti-CD177 by flowcytometry. HNA-1 (FCGR3B) genotyping was carried out by DNA sequencing and PCR-RFLP. Antigens of HNA-3 (SLC44A2) and HNA-5 (ITGAL) were genotyped by PCR-RFLP using TaqαI and Bsp1286I restriction enzymes, respectively, while HNA-4 (ITGAM) was genotyped by PCR-SSP.ResultsAllele frequencies of FCGR3B*01, FCGR3B*02, and FCGR3B*03 were found to be 0.433, 0.444, and 0.087, respectively. FCGR3B*01+*02+*03- was the most common genotype (33.78%). Ten individuals showed deficiency of FCGR3B individuals, while 23 showed hyperexpression, i.e., FCGR3B*01+*02+*03+. FCGR3B*04and *05 occurred with a frequency of 0.002 and 0.024. HNA-2 was found to be a high frequency antigen occurring in 98.8% population. Four percent individuals showed atypical expression of CD177 on their neutrophils. Allele frequencies of SLC44A2*01 and SLC44A2*02were 0.812 and 0.188, respectively, and that of ITGAM*01, ITGAM*02, ITGAL*01, and ITGAL*02 were 0.9546, 0.0454, 0.2372, and 0.7628, respectively.ConclusionThis is the first study in India to report the frequencies of HNA among blood donors. Typed neutrophil panels identified in the present study will enable us to investigate suspected cases of immune neutropenia in future.
