Identification of Host-Specific Bacteroidales 16S rDNA Sequences from Human Sewage and Ruminant Feces [PDF]

, 2011
The need to identify the source of fecal contamination of water has led to the development of various fecal source identification methods, a field known as microbial source tracking (MST). One promising method of MST focuses on fecal members of the order

Speciation Through the Lens of Population Dynamics: A Theoretical Primer on How Small and Large Populations Diverge

Population Ecology, EarlyView.
Population size and dynamics fundamentally shape speciation by influencing genetic drift, founder events, and adaptive potential. Small populations may speciate rapidly due to stronger drift, whereas large populations harbor more genetic diversity, which can alter divergence trajectories. We highlight theoretical models that incorporate population size

Species-Specificity in Myoglobin Oxygenation and Reduction Potential Properties

Meat and Muscle Biology, 2017
The objective was to compare oxygenation and reduction potential properties of bovine and porcine myoglobins in-vitro. Cyclic voltammetry and homology-based myoglobin modeling were used to determine the species-specific effects on myoglobin reduction ...

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.

Lactosylceramide molecular species specificity of rat liver CMP-N-acetylneuraminate:lactosylceramide sialyltransferase.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
Six naturally occurring and three synthetic molecular species of lactosylceramide (LacCer) were used to examine the molecular species specificity of CMP-N-acetylneuraminate:lactosylceramide alpha 2,3-sialyltransferase in a Golgi-rich fraction of rat ...

Trematodes of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia: emerging patterns of diversity and richness in coral reef fishes [PDF]

, 2014
The Great Barrier Reef holds the richest array of marine life found anywhere in Australia, including a diverse and fascinating parasite fauna. Members of one group, the trematodes, occur as sexually mature adult worms in almost all Great Barrier Reef ...

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.

Competition of Species with Intra-Specific Competition [PDF]

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena, 2008
Intra-specific competition in population dynamics can be described by integro-differen- tial equations where the integral term corresponds to nonlocal consumption of resources by in- dividuals of the same population. Already the single integro-differential equation can show the emergence of nonhomogeneous in space stationary structures and can be used ...

Circulating histones as clinical biomarkers in critically ill conditions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circulating histones are emerging as promising biomarkers in critical illness due to their diagnostic, prognostic, and therapeutic potential. Detection methods such as ELISA and mass spectrometry provide reliable approaches for quantifying histone levels in plasma samples.

Receptor uptake arrays for vitamin B12, siderophores and glycans shape bacterial communities

, 2017
Molecular variants of vitamin B12, siderophores and glycans occur. To take up variant forms, bacteria may express an array of receptors. The gut microbe Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron has three different receptors to take up variants of vitamin B12 and 88 ...
