Head Louse Feces: Chemical Analysis and Behavioral Activity
AbstractHuman head lice Pediculus humanus capitis (De Geer) (Phthiraptera: Pediculidae) are insect parasites closely associated with humans, feeding on the blood of their hosts and causing them skin irritation and probable secondary infections. Despite being a severe nuisance, very few studies have reported on intraspecific chemical communication in ...

α‐Synuclein Forms Distinct Micelle‐Like Assemblies at Low Ionic Strengths
At high ionic strength, α‐synuclein forms diverse assemblies, including oligomers, fibrils, and condensates. Here, we show that at low ionic strength, α‐synuclein adopts a distinct, low‐abundance assembly state. These assemblies maintain a constant size above a critical concentration and do not coalesce, suggesting a micelle‐like organization ...

The Tuta absoluta salivary effector TaCRVP subverts tomato immunity by hijacking host catalase SlCAT2. Through a sophisticated dual mechanism, TaCRVP simultaneously promotes SlCAT2 tetramerization for activation and blocks its SlAdBiL‐mediated degradation for stabilization.

The effect of ligand reactivity and carrier mechanics on thiol‐mediated uptake was investigated at the single‐molecule/particle level. The interaction kinetics of LA and AspA with membrane thiols were quantified; AspA is more efficient due to the higher binding affinity, greater binding stability, and more double‐disulfide binding, as well as greater ...
