Identification of the orphan gene Prod 1 in basal and other salamander families. [PDF]

, 2015
The urodele amphibians (salamanders) are the only adult tetrapods able to regenerate the limb. It is unclear if this is an ancestral property that is retained in salamanders but lost in other tetrapods or if it evolved in salamanders.

OsRALF26 Serves as an Endogenous Signal Recognised by XA21 to Promote Robust and Distal Resistance in Rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant immune receptors detect both microbe‐derived and endogenous signals to activate defences. XA21, a rice immune receptor, confers strong race‐specific resistance to a subset of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) strains by recognising the microbial sulphated peptide RaxX.

Chemical Synthesis of 6-Azido-6-Deoxy Derivatives of Phosphatidylinositol Containing Different Fatty Acid Chains

Molecules
This paper describes the synthesis of two 6-azido-6-deoxy derivatives of phosphatidylinositol (PI), which contained different fatty acid chains. These syntheses, starting from methyl α-d-glucopyranoside, employed multiple regioselective transformations ...

Biallelic mutations in PIGP cause developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2019
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies are characterized by infantile seizures and psychomotor delay. Glycosylphosphatidylinositol biosynthesis defects, resulting in impaired tethering of various proteins to the cell surface, represent the ...

Biomedical applications of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins

Journal of Lipid Research, 2016
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) use a unique posttranslational modification to link proteins to lipid bilayer membranes. The anchoring structure consists of both a lipid and carbohydrate portion and is highly conserved in ...

Cross-talks of glycosylphosphatidylinositol biosynthesis with glycosphingolipid biosynthesis and ER-associated degradation

Nature Communications, 2020
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchors are found on many cell surface proteins but their biosynthesis is not fully understood. Here, the authors identify genes involved in GPI galactosylation and reveal functional connections between GPI processing ...

Evolutionary descent of prion genes from a ZIP metal ion transport ancestor [PDF]

, 2009
In the more than 20 years since its discovery, both the phylogenetic origin and cellular function of the prion protein (PrP) have remained enigmatic.

Unravelling the biochemical aspects of the interaction between ticks and Leishmania using a tick cell line

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, Volume 40, Issue 2, Page 350-359, June 2026.
Leishmania infantum propagated in IDE8 tick cell line in vitro. L. infantum reduces tick cell viability and induces reactive oxygen species production. Lipidic profile of IDE8 tick cell line is altered during Leishmania infection. Abstract Leishmaniasis comprises a group of vector‐borne neglected tropical diseases caused by species of the obligatory ...
