Genetics of Drug Resistance [PDF]
Epilepsia, 2005 Summary: Drug resistance in epilepsy affects about a third of patients and is an important clinical problem, associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is important to consider carefully the definition of drug resistance. Recent interest in the field has focused on the potential molecular mechanisms underlying drug resistance. Environmental

Genetics of Antimicrobial Resistance
Animal Biotechnology, 2006 Antimicrobial resistant strains of bacteria are an increasing threat to animal and human health. Resistance mechanisms to circumvent the toxic action of antimicrobials have been identified and described for all known antimicrobials currently available for clinical use in human and veterinary medicine. Acquired bacterial antibiotic resistance can result

Anopheles gambiae Genome Conservation as a Resource for Rational Gene Drive Target Site Selection
Insects, 2021 The increase in molecular tools for the genetic engineering of insect pests and disease vectors, such as Anopheles mosquitoes that transmit malaria, has led to an unprecedented investigation of the genomic landscape of these organisms.

Plants, 2020 Using resistant cultivars is a common approach to managing blackleg of canola/rapeseed caused by Leptosphaeria maculans (Lm). Quantitative resistance (QR), as opposed to major-gene resistance, is of interest because it is generally more durable, due to ...

Genetics of Resistance to Tetraethyllead [PDF]
Australian Journal of Biological Sciences, 1979 A Drosophila melanogaster population was exposed for 25 generations to 60 pg tetraethyllead per gram of medium. Selection over this period resulted in an increase in fecundity, hatchability and larva-to-adult viability. Chromosome assay showed that response in these traits was generally under additive genetic control in conformity with existing results

Creating genetic resistance to HIV [PDF]
Current Opinion in Immunology, 2012 HIV/AIDS remains a chronic and incurable disease, in spite of the notable successes of combination antiretroviral therapy. Gene therapy offers the prospect of creating genetic resistance to HIV that supplants the need for antiviral drugs. In sight of this goal, a variety of anti-HIV genes have reached clinical testing, including gene-editing enzymes ...
