AbstractA polypeptide band with an apparent molecular weight of 55,000 was phosphorylated in vitro in whole-cell lysates ofTrypanosoma equiperdum. This band corresponds to tubulin as demonstrated by immunoprecipitation of the phosphorylated polypeptide fromT. equiperdumextracts when anti-α and anti-β tubulin monoclonal antibodies were employed. A parasite protein kinase CK2 was in charge of modifying tubulin given that common mammalian CK2 inhibitors such as emodin and GTP, hindered the phosphorylation of tubulin and exogenously added casein. Interestingly, a divalent cation-dependent translocation of theT. equiperdumtubulin and the CK2 responsible for its phosphorylation was noticed, suggesting a direct interaction between these two proteins. Additionally, this fraction of tubulin and its kinase coeluted using separations based on parameters as different as charge (DEAE-Sepharose anion-exchange chromatography) and size (Sephacryl S-300 gel filtration chromatography). Analyses by non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblot of the purified and radioactively labeled fraction containing both tubulin and the CK2 enzyme, established the phosphorylation of a single band that was recognized by anti-CK2 α-subunit and anti-tubulin antibodies. All these findings revealed a physical association between a pool of tubulin and a CK2 inT. equiperdum.

Abstract Background Ibezapolstat (ACX-362E) is the first DNA polymerase IIIC inhibitor undergoing clinical development for the oral treatment of Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI). Methods In this study, the in vitro activity of ibezapolstat was evaluated against a panel of 104 isolates of C. difficile, including those with characterized ribotypes (e.g. 027 and 078) and those producing toxin A or B and was shown to have similar activity to those of comparators against these strains. Results The overall MIC50/90 (mg/L) for ibezapolstat against evaluated C. difficile was 2/4, compared with 0.5/4 for metronidazole, 1/4 for vancomycin and 0.5/2 for fidaxomicin. In addition, the bactericidal activity of ibezapolstat was evaluated against actively growing C. difficile by determining the MBC against three C. difficile isolates. Time–kill kinetic assays were additionally performed against the three C. difficile isolates, with metronidazole and vancomycin as comparators. Conclusions The killing of C. difficile by ibezapolstat was observed to occur at concentrations similar to its MIC, as demonstrated by MBC:MIC ratios and reflected in time–kill kinetic assays. This activity highlights the therapeutic potential of ibezapolstat for the treatment of CDI.

Abstract Clofazimine has demonstrated in vitro activity against many nontuberculous mycobacteria. We present the case of a woman with cystic fibrosis who developed disseminated macrolide-resistant Mycobacterium avium infection following lung transplantation treated in part with clofazimine. We describe the novel administration of clofazimine via gastrostomy tube.

Incubation of Jurkat cells with 4,5,6,7-tetrabromobenzotriazole (TBB), a specific inhibitor of protein kinase CK2, induces dose-and time-dependent apoptosis as judged by several criteria. TBB-promoted apoptosis is preceded by inhibition of Ser/Thr phosphorylation of haematopoietic lineage cell-specific protein 1 (HS1) and is accompanied by caspase-dependent fragmentation of the same protein. Both effects are also observable if apoptosis is promoted by anti-Fas antibodies and by etoposide. Moreover, in vitro experiments show that HS1, once phosphorylated by CK2, becomes refractory to cleavage by caspase-3. These findings, in conjunction with similar data in the literature concerning two other CK2 protein substrates, Bid and Max, suggest that CK2 may play a general anti-apoptotic role through the generation of phosphorylated sites conferring resistance to caspase cleavage.
