Conserved dimerization architecture in C‐type lectins from virus‐vector mosquitoes
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.C‐type lectins (CTLs) are involved in the detection of viral/microbial carbohydrates. We studied a family of soluble CTLs in the mosquito Aedes aegypti, which acts as a vector for viruses like dengue and Zika. Using crystallography, biophysics, and structure prediction approaches, we found that these proteins consistently pair together in the same ...

Dengue and Dengue Virus in Florida
EDISThis publication provides an overview of dengue fever, focusing on its epidemiological landscape in Florida. Dengue, caused by dengue virus and transmitted through the bites of infected Aedes mosquitoes, is a major global health concern. Florida has experienced local dengue transmissions, and the incidence of dengue is increasing in the state.

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.This review summarizes recent structures of the UBR4 complex, a giant E4 ubiquitin ligase which recognizes proteins with pre‐existing ubiquitin modifications and marks them for degradation. The UBR4 complex uses a large arena lined with substrate interaction modules to select features on ubiquitinated substrates, such as the presence of N‐degrons or ...

Allergies and diabetes as risk factors for dengue hemorrhagic fever: results of a case control study. [PDF]
, 2010 BACKGROUND: The physiopathology of dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF), a severe form of Dengue Fever, is poorly understood. We are unable to identify patients likely to progress to DHF for closer monitoring and early intervention during epidemics, so most ...

Dengue@Home: evaluation of a hospital in the home pathway for management of adults with dengue fever
Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Background The rising incidence of dengue in popular travel destinations for Australians is increasing the burden on local healthcare systems. Since hospital‐based monitoring consumes significant resources, alternative models of care are needed.

International Statistical Review, EarlyView.Summary Understanding the spread of infectious diseases such as COVID‐19 is crucial for informed decision‐making and resource allocation. A critical component of disease behaviour is the velocity with which disease spreads, defined as the rate of change between time and space.
