Molecular phylogeny of Triatomini (Hemiptera: Reduviidae: Triatominae)

Parasites & Vectors, 2014
Background The Triatomini and Rhodniini (Hemiptera: Reduviidae) tribes include the most diverse Chagas disease vectors; however, the phylogenetic relationships within the tribes remain obscure.

Molecular Phylogeny of Coxsackievirus A16 [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2014
We have read the article by [Zong et al.][1] with considerable interest ([1][2]). They described the molecular phylogeny of Coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) in Shenzhen, China, from 2005 to 2009. In their paper, they claimed that “Subtype B2 could be further divided into clusters B2a, B2b, and B2c ...

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Evolution of developmental sequences in lepidosaurs [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
Background Lepidosaurs, a group including rhynchocephalians and squamates, are one of the major clades of extant vertebrates. Although there has been extensive phylogenetic work on this clade, its interrelationships are a matter of debate.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

Systematic studies of the South African Campanulaceae sensu stricto with and emphasis on generic delimitations [PDF]

, 2009
The South African Campanulaceae sensu stricto, comprising 10 genera, represent the most diverse lineage of the family in the southern hemisphere. In this study two phylogenies are reconstructed using parsimony and Bayesian methods.
