Extensive evolution of cereal ribosome-inactivating proteins translates into unique structural features, activation mechanisms, and physiological roles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are a class of cytotoxic enzymes that can depurinate rRNAs thereby inhibiting protein translation. Although these proteins have also been detected in bacteria, fungi, and even some insects, they are especially ...

Characterizing the virome of Ixodes ricinus ticks from northern Europe

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
RNA viruses are abundant infectious agents and present in all domains of life. Arthropods, including ticks, are well known as vectors of many viruses of concern for human and animal health.

Borrelia Infections Under B Cell‐Depleting Therapies: A Systematic Review of Diagnostic Challenges and Outcomes With Special Focus on Neurological Forms

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neurology, Volume 33, Issue 1, January 2026.
Neurological infections caused by Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Borrelia miyamotoi are increasingly reported in patients receiving anti‐CD20 therapies and should be considered in cases presenting with neurological symptoms and cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis.

The importance of lizards and small mammals as reservoirs for Borrelia lusitaniae in Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Borrelia lusitaniae is a pathogen frequent in the Mediterranean area. Apart from lizards, evidence for birds and small mammals as competent reservoirs for this genospecies has been occasional.

Similarities between Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes inopinatus genomes and horizontal gene transfer from their endosymbionts

open access: yesCurrent Research in Parasitology and Vector-Borne Diseases
The taxa Ixodes ricinus and Ixodes inopinatus are sympatric in Tunisia. The genetics underlying their morphological differences are unresolved. In this study, ticks collected in Jouza-Amdoun, Tunisia, were morphologically identified and sequenced using ...

Conserved spatial patterning of gene expression in independent lineages of C4 plants

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 24-38, January 2026.
Summary C4 photosynthesis enhances carbon fixation efficiency by reducing photorespiration through the use of an oxygen‐insensitive carboxylase and spatial separation of photosynthesis between mesophyll and bundle sheath cells. The C4 pathway has evolved independently in > 60 plant lineages, but molecular mechanisms underpinning this convergence remain
