Analysis of Porcine RIG-I Like Receptors Revealed the Positive Regulation of RIG-I and MDA5 by LGP2

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The RLRs play critical roles in sensing and fighting viral infections especially RNA virus infections. Despite the extensive studies on RLRs in humans and mice, there is a lack of systemic investigation of livestock animal RLRs.

The Incompetence of Mosquitoes—Can Zika Virus Be Adapted To Infect Culex tarsalis Cells?

open access: yesmSphere, 2023
The molecular evolutionary mechanisms underpinning virus-host interactions are increasingly recognized as key drivers of virus emergence, host specificity, and the likelihood that viruses can undergo a host shift that alters epidemiology and transmission

Rubisco specificity factor tends to be larger in plant species from drier habitats and in species with persistent leaves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The specificity factor of Rubisco is a measure of the relative capacities of the enzyme to catalyse carboxylation and oxygenation of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate and hence to control the relative rates of photosynthetic carbon assimilation and ...

Host specificity and genetics of host resistance in the "Daphnia-Pasteuria" host-parasite system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Antagonistic coevolution plays an important role in a large number of evolutionary and ecological phenomena. Furthermore, according to the Red Queen Theory coevolution between hosts and their parasites may explain the maintenance of sexual reproduction ...

Insights Into a Chlamydia pneumoniae-Specific Gene Cluster of Membrane Binding Proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Chlamydia pneumoniae is an obligate intracellular pathogen that causes diseases of the upper and lower respiratory tract and is linked to a number of severe and chronic conditions. Here, we describe a large, C.
