    摘要: Disclosed is a pharmaceutical composition to prevent transmission of a pathogen (i.e., including SARS-CoV-2 amongst other pathogens), the pharmaceutical composition comprising: genetically modified bacteria; sequences of small peptides; and pharmaceutical excipients, wherein the genetically modified oral bacteria are modified to translate, produce, and emit the sequences of small peptides which neutralize a pathogen (i.e., including SARS-CoV-2 amongst other pathogens), wherein transgenic technology is used to modify the genetically modified oral bacteria to add genes in genetically modified oral bacteria that are transcribed to produce small peptides from the sequences of small peptides so added, wherein the sequences of small peptides show extreme binding and neutralization to a pathogen (i.e., including SARS-CoV-2 amongst other pathogens) but not to host proteins or processes, and wherein the pharmaceutical excipients aid the oral and/or nasal administration of the pharmaceutical composition.

    摘要: A fluorescent protein sensor capable of quantitatively measuring oxidation degree of methionine residues of a specific protein, and a use thereof. Specifically, a fluorescent biosensor recombinant protein in which an MsrB protein, a cpYFP protein, a thioredoxin 3 protein, a linker protein and a G protein are linked in this order, and which is capable of quantitatively measuring the oxidation degree of methionine residues of a target protein; a fluorescent biosensor comprising same; a method for measuring oxidation degree of methionine residues of a target protein; and an information providing method for diagnosis of oxidative stress-associated diseases; and a method for screening for a therapeutic agent for oxidative stress-associated diseases. A recombinant protein for a fluorescent biosensor for accurately and quantitatively measuring, through the detection of a specific change in fluorescence, oxidation degree of methionine residues of a specific protein, but not all proteins, even in a mixed biological sample.
