Elevated rate of fixation of endogenous retroviral elements in Haplorhini TRIM5 and TRIM22 genomic sequences: impact on transcriptional regulation. [PDF]

open access: goldPLoS ONE, 2013
All genes in the TRIM6/TRIM34/TRIM5/TRIM22 locus are type I interferon inducible, with TRIM5 and TRIM22 possessing antiviral properties. Evolutionary studies involving the TRIM6/34/5/22 locus have predominantly focused on the coding sequence of the genes,

New middle Eocene omomyines (Primates, Haplorhini) from San Diego County, California

open access: bronzeJournal of Human Evolution, 2018
The Friars Formation of San Diego County, California, has yielded a middle Eocene mammalian fauna from the early part of the Uintan North American Land Mammal Age. Prior research on the primate fauna from the Friars Formation provides evidence of one notharctine and multiple omomyine species, but many specimens collected since the early 1980s remain ...

Macroevolutionary dynamics and historical biogeography of primate diversification inferred from a species supermatrix. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Phylogenetic relationships, divergence times, and patterns of biogeographic descent among primate species are both complex and contentious. Here, we generate a robust molecular phylogeny for 70 primate genera and 367 primate species based on a ...

Comparative evaluation of acute phase proteins by C-reactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid A (SAA) in nonhuman primates and feline carnivores

open access: yesAnimal Diseases, 2022
The feasibility of a commercially available assay for C-reactive protein (CRP, CRP for humans: hCRP, and CRP for dogs: vCRP) and a trial reagent of serum amyloid A (SAA, vSAA for animals) were applied to the measurement of acute phase proteins in zoo ...

Life history of the most complete fossil primate skeleton: exploring growth models for Darwinius [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2015
Darwinius is an adapoid primate from the Eocene of Germany, and its only known specimen represents the most complete fossil primate ever found. Its describers hypothesized a close relationship to Anthropoidea, and using a Saimiri model estimated its age ...

Comparative analysis of residual neurovirulence of vaccine and low attenuated rubella virus (Matonaviridae: Rubivirus: Rubella virus) strains in the experiments on the macaque rhesus (Macaca mulatta) monkeys

open access: yesВопросы вирусологии, 2022
Introduction. Rubella is currently an infection controlled by specific prophylaxis. Not only the right vaccine prophylaxis strategy and tactics, but also the use of effective and safe vaccine preparations is crucial for the elimination of this disease ...

The allometry of brain size in Euarchontoglires: clade-specific patterns and their impact on encephalization quotients. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Mammal
The timing and nature of evolutionary shifts in the relative brain size of Primates have been extensively studied. Less is known, however, about the scaling of the brain-to-body size in their closest living relatives, i.e., among other members of ...

Monkey Bites and Injuries in the Zagreb Antirabies Clinic in 2014 [PDF]

open access: yesActa Clinica Croatica, 2018
Travelling around the world and visiting distant places and countries (especially national parks, parks of nature, natural resorts, etc.) sometimes may result in animal bites and injuries from the species which are not usually represented as the source ...

Evolution of substrate specificity in the Nucleobase-Ascorbate Transporter (NAT) protein family

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2018
L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is an essential metabolite in animals and plants due to its role as an enzyme co-factor and antioxidant activity. In most eukaryotic organisms, L-ascorbate is biosynthesized enzymatically, but in several major groups ...
