Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius

PUF Proteins as Critical RNA-Binding Proteins in TriTryp Parasites: A Review Article

Iranian Journal of Parasitology
In eukaryotes, translation is a fundamental step in the long pathway of protein synthesis within the cell. In this process, several proteins and factors have involved directly or indirectly, individually or in association with other elements to contact ...

The Leishmania major BBSome subunit BBS1 is essential for parasite virulence in the mammalian host [PDF]

, 2013
Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS) is a human genetic disorder with a spectrum of symptoms caused by primary cilium dysfunction. The disease is caused by mutations in one of at least 17 identified genes, of which seven encode subunits of the BBSome, a protein ...

Effectiveness of Carbon Dioxide Cryotherapy for the Treatment of Localized Cutaneous Leishmaniasis in Ethiopia

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a public health problem in Ethiopia. Diagnosis is often delayed, and treatment options are limited. Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy is a recommended treatment but not widely available. Carbon dioxide (CO2) cryotherapy is used for the prevention of cervical cancer and is widely available in Ethiopia and ...

Key Regulators of Parasite Biology Viewed Through a Post‐Translational Modification Repertoire

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Parasites are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in both humans and animals, imposing substantial socioeconomic burdens worldwide. Controlling parasitic diseases has become one of the key issues in achieving “One Health”. Most parasites have sophisticated life cycles exhibiting progressive developmental stages, morphologies, and ...

Production of Recombinant Leishmania Tropica Parasites Expressing Two Proteins of Egfp and Luciferase Reporter

Majallah-i Dānishgāh-i ̒Ulūm-i Pizishkī-i Bābul, 2017
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: L. tropica is the major cause of cutaneous and visceral leishmaniasis in Iran. Due to lack of an accurate, sensitive and noninvasive detection test in animal model is a major problem. Here, we designed L.
