Metabolite-dependent regulation of gene expression in trypanosoma brucei [PDF]
Mechanisms regulating gene expression in trypanosomatid protozoa differ significantly from those in other eukaryotes. Transcription of the genome appears to be more or less constitutive with the polyadenylation and trans-splicing of large polycistronic ...

Preservation of Protein Dynamics in Dihydrofolate Reductase Evolution*
Background: “Humanized” mutants of bacterial dihydrofolate reductase were examined to relate protein dynamics with enzyme evolution. Results: Effects on enzyme dynamics alter the catalyzed C-H→C step, but the nature of that step was retained along ...

A comprehensive overview of yeast libraries and their role in advancing cell biology
Systematic, genome‐wide yeast mutant libraries have revolutionized systems and cell biology. By allowing high‐throughput interrogation of every gene and protein, they have defined gene essentiality, charted protein localization, illuminated function, mapped interactions, and more.

Inhibition of Leishmania Major PTR1 Gene Expression by Anti-sense in Escherichia Coli [PDF]
Background:Protozoa related to Trypanosome family including Leishmania,synthesize enzymes to escape from drug therapy.One of them is PTR1 that its enzymatic activity is similar to dihydrofolate reductase(DHFR)Dihydrofolate reductase - thymidylate ...

Genetics of human neural tube defects [PDF]
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common, severe congenital malformations whose causation involves multiple genes and environmental factors. Although more than 200 genes are known to cause NTDs in mice, there has been rather limited progress in delineating ...

CoMFA and CoMSIA Analyses of Pneumocystis carinii Dihydrofolate Reductase, Toxoplasma gondii Dihydrofolate Reductase, and Rat Liver Dihydrofolate Reductase [PDF]
In a continuing effort to develop potent and selective dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitors against opportunistic pathogens, we developed three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D QSAR) models for the inhibitory activity against Pneumocystis carinii (pc) DHFR, Toxoplasma gondii (tg) DHFR, and rat liver DHFR, using a data ...

Isotopic substitution (15N, 13C, 2H) of a catalytically compromised variant of Escherichia coli dihydrofolate reductase, EcDHFR-N23PP/S148A, has been used to investigate the effect of these mutations on catalysis.

Erythrocyte membrane protein 3 (EMAP3) is a novel Plasmodium berghei protein that is trafficked to the outer membrane surface of the infected red blood cell (iRBC). EMAP3 is not critical for parasite growth or sequestration but offers a new scaffold for displaying Plasmodium falciparum proteins on iRBCs.

Dihydropteroate synthase gene mutations in Pneumocystis and sulfa resistance [PDF]
Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) remains a major cause of illness and death in HIV-infected persons. Sulfa drugs, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) and dapsone are mainstays of PCP treatment and prophylaxis.

The Antarctic Dietzia and Pusillimonas isolates were tested for bioremediation applications. Genomic analyses revealed the potential to degrade complex organic compounds, potential virulence factors and resistance genes. Physiological assays showed a wide range of adaptation to abiotic factors and sensitivity to different groups of antibiotics ...
