DE NOVO MITOCHONDRIAL GENOME SEQUENCING OF CLADONIA SUBULATA AND PHYLOGENETIC ANALYSIS WITH OTHER DISSIMILAR SPECIES.

De novo mitochondrial genome sequencing of Cladonia subulata and phylogenetic analysis with other dissimilar species.

In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Cladonia subulata (L.) FH Wigg was sequenced and assembled and then compared with those of other Cladonia species.The mitogenome of Cladonia subulata, the type species of Cladonia, consisted of a circular DNA molecule of 58,895 bp 44 genes (15 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes, and 27 tRNA genes)

Alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) reduces severity of Pseudomonas pneumonia in mice and inhibits epithelial barrier disruption and Pseudomonas invasion of respiratory epithelial cells

Nosocomial pneumonia (NP) is the third most common hospital-acquired infection and the leading cause of death due to hospital-acquired infection in the US.During pneumonia and non-pneumonia severe illness, respiratory tract secretions become enriched with the serine protease neutrophil elastase (NE).Several NE activities promote onset and severity
