Analytical Validation of SOD2 Genotyping
Manganese superoxide dismutase-2 (SOD2) plays a crucial role in cells’ protection against mitochondrial oxidative damage. A genetic polymorphism in the mitochondrial targeting sequence of the SOD2 gene has been implicated in various diseases, including prostate cancer. Paller et al.

Coxiella burnetii is a strict intracellular bacterium with potential as a bioterrorism agent. To characterize different isolates of C. burnetii at the molecular level, we performed multispacer sequence typing (MST). MST is based on intergenic region sequencing.

MHC-I genotype drives early immune selection of oncogenic mutations. [PDF]
MHC-I exposes the intracellular contents to immune cells for surveillance of cellular health. Due to high genomic variation, individuals' immune systems differ in their ability to expose and eliminate cancer-causing mutations.

The Influence ofHLAGenotype on AIDS [PDF]
Genetic resistance to infectious diseases is likely to involve a complex array of immune-response and other genes with variants that impose subtle but significant consequences on gene expression or protein function. We have gained considerable insight into the genetic determinants of HIV-1 disease, and the HLA class I genes appear to be highly ...

Spatially and genetically distinct African trypanosome virulence variants defined by host interferon-g response [PDF]
We describe 2 spatially distinct foci of human African trypansomiasis in eastern Uganda. The Tororo and Soroti foci of <i>Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense</i> infection were genetically distinct as characterized by 6 microsatellite and 1 ...

Vaccines against toxoplasma gondii : challenges and opportunities [PDF]
Development of vaccines against Toxoplasma gondii infection in humans is of high priority, given the high burden of disease in some areas of the world like South America, and the lack of effective drugs with few adverse effects.
