The impact of conservation translocations on vector-borne parasites : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Ecology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Wildlife conservation in New Zealand relies on translocations of endangered species to safe sites. While knowledge of the biology and behaviour of translocated hosts has steadily increased, the role of parasites in wildlife translocations has been ...

Twin‐arginine translocation D (TatD) homologs are found across all kingdoms, with debated roles in DNA degradation and protein quality control in unicellular organisms. We characterize TATDN1, the mammalian TatD orthologue, as a proteostatic stress‐responsive cytosolic protein dispensable for DNA degradation.

Molecular Testing in Sickle Cell Disease: From Newborn Screening to Transfusion Care
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases worldwide and a highly heterogeneous and complex disease. SCD care carries several challenges. This includes early and accurate diagnosis as well as optimal red blood cell transfusion matching in this population carrying a high risk of alloimmunization.
