HATs On for Drug Resistance [PDF]
Cell Host & Microbe, 2011 Mutations in the human cytomegalovirus UL27 gene confer resistance to an inhibitor of the viral protein kinase UL97. Reitsma and colleagues (2011) demonstrate that UL27 destabilizes the Tip60 histone acetyltransferase, setting forth intriguing new mechanisms for antiviral drug resistance and for viral regulation of the cell cycle.

Drug Resistance in Leishmaniasis [PDF]
Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2006 SUMMARY Leishmaniasis is a complex disease, with visceral and cutaneous manifestations, and is caused by over 15 different species of the protozoan parasite genus Leishmania. There are significant differences in the sensitivity of these species both to the standard drugs, for example, pentavalent antimonials and miltefosine ...

Antimalarial drug resistance [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2004 Malaria, the most prevalent and most pernicious parasitic disease of humans, is estimated to kill between one and two million people, mainly children, each year. Resistance has emerged to all classes of antimalarial drugs except the artemisinins and is responsible for a recent increase in malaria-related mortality, particularly in Africa.

Phylodynamic analysis reveals CRF01_AE dissemination between Japan and neighboring Asian countries and the role of intravenous drug use in transmission. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 BACKGROUND: One major circulating HIV-1 subtype in Southeast Asian countries is CRF01_AE, but little is known about its epidemiology in Japan. We conducted a molecular phylodynamic study of patients newly diagnosed with CRF01_AE from 2003 to 2010 ...
