SPECIES SPECIFICITY OF LEUKOCYTIC PYROGENS [PDF]

The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1969
Polymorphonuclear neutrophilic leukocytes of the dog, cat, and goat release leukocytic pyrogen under the same conditions as the heterophile polymorphonuclear leukocytes of the rabbit. The characteristics of the febrile response to an intravenous injection of homologous leukocytic pyrogen in all four species are very similar: a brisk monophasic fever ...

Evolutionary Limitation and Opportunities for Developing tRNA Synthetase Inhibitors with 5-Binding-Mode Classification

Life, 2015
Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) are enzymes that catalyze the transfer of amino acids to their cognate tRNAs as building blocks for translation. Each of the aaRS families plays a pivotal role in protein biosynthesis and is indispensable for cell ...

Conformational adaptation of Asian macaque TRIMCyp directs lineage specific antiviral activity [PDF]

, 2010
TRIMCyps are anti-retroviral proteins that have arisen independently in New World and Old World primates. All TRIMCyps comprise a CypA domain fused to the tripartite domains of TRIM5α but they have distinct lentiviral specificities, conferring HIV-1 ...

The Trw Type IV Secretion System of Bartonella Mediates Host-Specific Adhesion to Erythrocytes [PDF]

, 2010
Bacterial pathogens typically infect only a limited range of hosts; however, the genetic mechanisms governing host-specificity are poorly understood.

Morphological Traits Shape Foraging Scale but Not Precision: Divergent Responses of Four Tree Species to Water and Nutrient Heterogeneity

Plants
Soil nutrients and water are often distributed heterogeneously in space, yet how plant roots forage in response to such heterogeneity and how their strategies relate to functional traits remain poorly understood.

Species-Specific Marker Discovery in Tilapia [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractTilapias (family Cichlidae) are of importance in aquaculture and fisheries. Hybridisation and introgression are common within tilapia genera but are difficult to analyse due to limited numbers of species-specific genetic markers. We tested the potential of double digested restriction-site associated DNA (ddRAD) sequencing for discovering single
