Glutathione reductase-catalyzed cascade of redox reactions to bioactivate potent antimalarial 1,4-naphthoquinones--a new strategy to combat malarial parasites. [PDF]
, 2011 Our work on targeting redox equilibria of malarial parasites propagating in red blood cells has led to the selection of six 1,4-naphthoquinones, which are active at nanomolar concentrations against the human pathogen Plasmodium falciparum in culture and ...

Micro-eukaryotic diversity in hypolithons from Miers Valley, Antarctica [PDF]
, 2013 The discovery of extensive and complex hypolithic communities in both cold and hot deserts has raised many questions regarding their ecology, biodiversity and relevance in terms of regional productivity.

Microbiome, 2018 Background Targeted amplicon deep sequencing (TADS) of the 16S rRNA gene is commonly used to explore and characterize bacterial microbiomes. Meanwhile, attempts to apply TADS to the detection and characterization of entire parasitic communities have been

Malaria Journal, 2021 Background Plasmodium 18S rRNA is a sensitive biomarker for detecting Plasmodium infection in human blood. Dried blood spots (DBS) are a practical sample type for malaria field studies to collect, store, and transport large quantities of blood samples ...

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Ciliates represent central nodes in freshwater planktonic food webs, and many species show pronounced seasonality, with short-lived maxima of a few dominant taxa while many being rare or ephemeral.

Characterization of the TMV encapsidatlon initiation site on 18S rRNA [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1988 Tobacco Mosaic Virus capsid protein oligomers react with and encapsidate 18S rRNA from both plant and mammalian sources in vitro. The site (ei) in 18S rRNA which reacts with capsid protein to initiate the packaging reaction has been localized and partially characterized by testing the ability of transcripts from different regions of a cloned Cucurbita ...

Quantitative analysis of snoRNA association with pre-ribosomes and release of snR30 by Rok1 helicase [PDF]
, 2008 In yeast, three small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are essential for the processing of pre-ribosomal RNA—U3, U14 and snR30—whereas 72 non-essential snoRNAs direct site-specific modification of pre-rRNA. We applied a quantitative screen for alterations in the

A new 18S rRNA phylogeny of uncultured predacious fungi (Zoopagales) [PDF]
Mycologia, 2019 Previous molecular phylogenetic studies have shown that families in Zoopagales are not monophyletic. To test the monophyly of genera and species in the order, we used a single-cell approach to generate nuclear 18S rRNA (18S) sequences for 10 isolates representing nine taxa.

International Journal of Hygiene and Environmental Health, 2018 Understanding waterborne protozoan parasites (WPPs) diversity has important implications in public health. In this study, we evaluated a NGS-based method as a detection approach to identify simultaneously most important WPPs using 18S rRNA high ...

The Parasite that Causes Whirling Disease, \u3cem\u3eMyxobolus cerebralis\u3c/em\u3e, is Genetically Variable Within and Across Spatial Scales [PDF]
, 2012 Understanding the genetic structure of parasite populations on the natural landscape can reveal important aspects of disease ecology and epidemiology and can indicate parasite dispersal across the landscape.
