The invention provides compositions and methods for the production of TDP-deoxysugars.

The invention relates to the isolation or extraction of exosomes.

This disclosure provides a new vaccine composition and methods for its use. The composition contains an effective amount of each of: an aluminum hydroxide, a mono-phosphoryl lipid (MPL), and a whole glucan particles (WGP) but no an antigen that raises an immune response against a bacterial or fungal infection.

Provided herein are non-naturally occurring microbial organisms having a pathway for production of (3R)-hydroxybutyl (3R)-hydroxybutyrate, wherein the organism can further include a (R)-1,3-butanediol pathway, a (3R)-hydroxybutyrate pathway, a (3R)-hydroxybutyryl-CoA pathway, an acetoacetate pathway, an acetoacetyl-CoA pathway, a (3R)-hydroxybutyl-ACP pathway, or an acetoacetyl-ACP pathway. Additionally provided are methods and processes for producing and isolating (3R)-hydroxybutyl (3R)-hydroxybutyrate using the microbial organisms, and various compositions having the (3R)-hydroxybutyl (3R)-hydroxybutyrate. Still further provided are methods of treating or preventing a disease, disorder or condition using the (3R)-hydroxybutyl (3R)-hydroxybutyrate produced by the microbial organisms of the invention.

This document provides methods and materials involved in assessing mammals (e.g., humans) for arthritis. For example, methods and materials for assessing a mammal's gut microbial diversity to identify the mammal as having arthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis) are provided. This document also provides methods and materials involved in treating arthritis.
