In this work we fit an epidemiological model SEIAQR (Susceptible - Exposed - Infectious - Asymptomatic - Quarantined - Removed) to the data of the first COVID-19 outbreak in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Particular emphasis is given to the unreported rate, that is, the proportion of infected individuals that is not detected by the health system. The eval...

Leaf and tuber extracts of Curcuma wenyujin contain a mixture of curcuminoids. However, the curcuminoid constituents and their molecular mechanisms are poorly understood, and the relevant curcumin synthases remain unclear. In this study, we comprehensively compared the metabolite profiles of the leaf and tuber tissues of C. wenyujin. A total of 11 ...

Bacillomycin D is a cyclic lipopeptide produced by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens fmbJ. At present, no relevant report has described the combinatorial biosynthesis of bacillomycin D. Due to the strong biosynthetic potential of the communication-mediating (COM) domains, its crosstalk between NRPS subunits has been studied to some extent, but the interac...
