Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are important for almost all cellular processes, including metabolic cycles, DNA transcription and replication, and signaling cascades. The experimental methods for identifying PPIs are always time-consuming and ex...
Microscopy image analysis is a major bottleneck in quantification of single-cell microscopy data, typically requiring human oversight and curation, which limit both accuracy and throughput. To address this, we developed a deep learning-based image an...
Machine learning techniques can be applied to MALDI-TOF mass spectral data of drug-treated cells to obtain classification models which assign the mechanism of action of drugs. Here, we present an example application of this concept to the screening o...
Spread of multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli clinical isolates is a main problem in the treatment of infectious diseases. Therefore, the modern scientific approaches in decision this problem require not only a prevention strategy, but also the deve...

A series of new asymmetric bisamidine was designed, synthesized, and tested for their in-vitro antibacterial activity using a range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens. Most compounds demonstrated powerful antibacterial activity, and interes...
Glucose isomerase (GIase), an efficient enzyme in the isomerization of d-glucose to d-fructose, has been widely used in food processing. In this study, an efficient expression system for a Thermobifida fusca GIase (GIase) in Escherichia coli was firs...
Plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes located on conjugative plasmids can be transferred to other bacteria in the absence of antimicrobial selective pressure. To elucidate the prevalence of resistance, including PMQR in an egg-producing ...
