Insight Into the Molecular Mechanisms for Microcystin Biodegradation in Lake Erie and Lake Taihu
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Microcystins are potent hepatotoxins that are frequently detected in fresh water lakes plagued by toxic cyanobacteria. Microbial biodegradation has been referred to as the most important avenue for removal of microcystin from aquatic environments.

Microcystins: Potent xenobiotics
Archive of Oncology, 2011 Having in mind that exposure to low levels of microcystin in drinking water represents the health risk for people, microcystins can be observed as potent xenobiotics. The consequences of exposure to natural products of the blue-green algae, the microcystins, are numerous.

Phosphorylation of Sli15 by Ipl1 is important for proper CPC localization and chromosome stability in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
, 2014 The chromosomal passenger complex (CPC) is a key regulator of eukaryotic cell division, consisting of the protein kinase Aurora B/Ipl1 in association with its activator (INCENP/Sli15) and two additional proteins (Survivin/Bir1 and Borealin/Nbl1). Here we

Do Cyanobacteria Blooms Enhance Parasite Loads in Lake Erie Yellow Perch? [PDF]
, 2020 Harmful Algal Blooms composed of cyanobacteria (HABs) are a major concern globally, especially in ecosystems that support commercial and recreational fisheries. Although HABs have been shown to negatively affect the services provided by ecosystems (e.g.,
