Toward understanding the catalytic mechanism for two classes of bacterial phospholipid N‐methyltransferases

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Phospholipid N‐methyltransferases (Pmts) synthesize phosphatidylcholine in many bacteria. In this study, we compared the catalytic mechanisms of two bacterial Pmt classes: the Rhodobacter (R‐) and the Sinorhizobium (S‐) type. Representative enzymes for each class were derived from Rubellimicrobium thermophilum and Agrobacterium tumefaciens ...

Vectors and Vector‐Borne Diseases: Biology, Epidemiology and Integrated Control Strategies

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vector‐Borne Diseases (VBDs), transmitted by arthropods such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and sandflies, represent a significant threat to global health. These diseases can be caused by a variety of pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and helminths.

Effects of Video‐Based Health Education on Birth Outcomes and Anaemia Status of Mothers in Dirashe District South Ethiopia: A Cluster Randomized Controlled Trial

Maternal &Child Nutrition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Undernutrition and infections during pregnancy result in low birth weight (LBW) and maternal anaemia. Social behaviour change communication (SBCC) can promote recommended health practices, potentially improving maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Clustering Plasmodium falciparum Genes to their Functional Roles Using k-means [PDF]

, 2010
We developed recently a new and novel Metric Matrics k-means (MMk-means) clustering algorithm to cluster genes to their functional roles with a view of obtaining further knowledge on many P. falciparum genes.

HbS Protection from P. falciparum Infection

British Journal of Medicine and Medical Research, 2013
Recent investigations have highlighted various mechanisms of interaction between the Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) parasite and the host, which are important for the understanding of the well-known protective effect by haemoglobinopathies like Sickle Cell Trait and α-Thalassemia against incidence and severity of malaria.

A multiplex assay to detect mosquito species, bloodmeal host source and Plasmodium in malaria vectors using Nanopore amplicon sequencing

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, EarlyView.
Insectary‐reared mosquitoes were simultaneously assessed for species identification, bloodmeal source analysis and Plasmodium detection, using a single multiplexed sequencing run on the MinION sequencing platform. The method was applied to 150 insectary‐reared mosquitoes, representing nine species blood‐fed with five vertebrate hosts and 40 samples for
