Phylogenetic Assessment of Gazella bennettii: A Genetic Framework for the Conservation of the Endangered Jebeer in Iran

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 2, February 2025.
Our molecular genetic analyses provide resolution for the controversial status of jebeer and chinkara, providing a basis for future assessments by the IUCN and national authorities in Iran. Furthermore, these data enable us to make informed decisions regarding crucial areas of jebeer conservation.

Cryo‐EM structures of the zinc transporters ZnT3 and ZnT4 provide insights into their transport mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Letters, Volume 599, Issue 1, Page 41-52, January 2025.
Zinc transporters (ZnTs) function as H+/Zn2+ antiporters, facilitating zinc efflux from the cytosol to the extracellular space or intracellular vesicles, playing a crucial role in maintaining zinc homeostasis. Here, using cryo‐electron microscopy, we characterized the structures of ZnT3 (inward‐facing) and ZnT4 (outward‐facing), providing insights into

Influence of selected Rhizoctonia solani isolates on sugar beet seedlings

open access: yesJournal of Plant Protection Research, 2016
From 2008 to 2010 the levels of sugar beet seedlings infection caused by Rhizoctonia solani were compared in laboratory tests. Seven sugar beet lines were tested: H56, H66, S2, S3, S4, S5 and S6 as well as three control cultivars: Carlos, Esperanza and ...

Carrion in Bomas: Multiple Observations of Cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) Scavenging Events and Potential Causes in Managed Populations

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2025.
Very few incidents of cheetahs (Acinonyx jubatus) scavenging have been reported, with no explanation given as to why it may occur. In this paper, we provide three observations of cheetahs scavenging and suggest a common factor between them: all adult individuals involved passed through bomas during relocation processes and were provisioned with carrion

High Antigen Dose Is Detrimental to Post-Exposure Vaccine Protection against Tuberculosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the etiologic agent of tuberculosis (TB), causes 1.8M deaths annually. The current vaccine, BCG, has failed to eradicate TB leaving 25% of the world’s population with latent Mtb infection (LTBI), and 5–10% of these ...

My path to citrin deficiency

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Citrin belongs to the SLC25 transport protein family found mostly in inner mitochondrial membranes. The family prototype, the ADP–ATP carrier, delivers ATP made inside mitochondria to the cellular cytoplasm and returns ADP to the mitochondrion for resynthesis of ATP.

The TB vaccine H56+IC31 dose-response curve is peaked not saturating: Data generation for new mathematical modelling methods to inform vaccine dose decisions

open access: yesVaccine, 2016
In vaccine development, dose-response curves are commonly assumed to be saturating. Evidence from tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, H56+IC31 shows this may be incorrect. Mathematical modelling techniques may be useful in efficiently identifying the most immunogenic dose, but model calibration requires longitudinal data across multiple doses and time points.We

Strategic Priming with Multiple Antigens Can Yield Memory Cell Phenotypes Optimized for Infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a Computational Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Lack of an effective vaccine results in 9 million new cases of tuberculosis (TB) every year and 1.8 million deaths worldwide. Although many infants are vaccinated at birth with BCG (an attenuated M.
