Mimivirus and the emerging concept of "giant" virus [PDF]
arXiv, 2005 The recently discovered Acanthamoeba polyphaga Mimivirus is the largest known DNA virus. Its particle size (>400 nm), genome length (1.2 million bp) and large gene repertoire (911 protein coding genes) blur the established boundaries between viruses and parasitic cellular organisms.

Ontogeny of Human IgE-expressing B Cells and Plasma Cells [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: IgE‐expressing (IgE(+)) plasma cells (PCs) provide a continuous source of allergen‐specific IgE that is central to allergic responses. The extreme sparsity of IgE(+) cells in vivo has confined their study almost entirely to mouse models ...

Attractors in residual interactions explain the differentially-conserved stability of Immunoglobulins [PDF]
arXiv, 2014 Proteins belonging to immunoglobulin superfamily(IgSF) show remarkably conserved nature both in their folded structure and in their folding process, but they neither originate from very similar sequences nor demonstrate functional conservation. Treating proteins as fractal objects, without studying spatial conservation in positioning of particular ...

IgE-Related Chronic Diseases and Anti-IgE-Based Treatments
Journal of Immunological Research, 2016 IgE is an immunoglobulin that plays a central role in acute allergic reactions and chronic inflammatory allergic diseases. The development of a drug able to neutralize this antibody represents a breakthrough in the treatment of inflammatory pathologies ...

IgE-tailpiece associates with α-1-antitrypsin (A1AT) to protect IgE from proteolysis without compromising its ability to interact with FcεRI [PDF]
, 2016 Several splice variants of IgE exist in human plasma, including a variant called IgE-tailpiece (IgE-tp) that differs from classical IgE by the replacement of two carboxy-terminal amino acids with eight novel residues that include an ultimate cysteine. To

STAT3 mutations in the hyper-IgE syndrome.
New England Journal of Medicine, 2007 BACKGROUND The hyper-IgE syndrome (or Job's syndrome) is a rare disorder of immunity and connective tissue characterized by dermatitis, boils, cyst-forming pneumonias, elevated serum IgE levels, retained primary dentition, and bone abnormalities ...

How fast is the frequency of precipitation extremes doubling in global land regions?
Environmental Research CommunicationsThe increasing frequency and intensity of precipitation extremes poses a serious challenge for societies that must adapt to a changing climate. Communicating these changes in terms of their magnitude at a given lead time (e.g., 2100) or at a given level ...
