Conserved dimerization architecture in C‐type lectins from virus‐vector mosquitoes

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
C‐type lectins (CTLs) are involved in the detection of viral/microbial carbohydrates. We studied a family of soluble CTLs in the mosquito Aedes aegypti, which acts as a vector for viruses like dengue and Zika. Using crystallography, biophysics, and structure prediction approaches, we found that these proteins consistently pair together in the same ...

Fine-scale maps of malaria incidence to inform risk stratification in Laos

Malaria Journal
Background Malaria risk maps are crucial for controlling and eliminating malaria by identifying areas of varying transmission risk. In the Greater Mekong Subregion, these maps guide interventions and resource allocation. This article focuses on analysing

A spatiotemporal analysis of Salmonella bacteraemia in Queensland, 2010–2019

Internal Medicine Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Salmonellosis contributes to a significant burden on global healthcare systems. The impact of this foodborne bacterium is more pronounced when the infection is invasive, leading to bacteraemia and sepsis. Studies on invasive salmonellosis are few, and there is an urgent need to understand the spatial distribution of bacteraemia and ...

The Origins of Ploem's Filter Cube: A Pandora's Box

Journal of Microscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Ploem's filter cube, central to modern epifluorescence microscopy, integrates three matched optical components: an excitation filter, an emission filter, and a dichroic mirror. Together, these elements enable the separation of excitation and emission light paths, producing high‐contrast fluorescence images.
