Insecticide resistance resulting from an absence of target-site gene product [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1998
Genetic changes in insects that lead to insecticide resistance include point mutations and up-regulation/amplification of detoxification genes. Here, we report a third mechanism, resistance caused by an absence of gene product. Mutations of the Methoprene-tolerant ( Met ) gene of ...

Status and development of ACCase and ALS inhibitor resistant black-grass (Alopecurus myosuroides Huds.) in neighboring fields in Germany

open access: yesJulius-Kühn-Archiv, 2012
Neighboring fields in three local areas of southern Germany have been investigated for the infestation level and herbicide resistance structure of black-grass (Alopecurus myosuroides Huds.).

Antimalarial 4(1H)-pyridones bind to the Qisite of cytochromebc1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cytochrome bc1 is a proven drug target in the prevention and treatment of malaria. The rise in drug-resistant strains of Plasmodium falciparum, the organism responsible for malaria, has generated a global effort in designing new classes of drugs. Much of

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

ACCase-inhibiting herbicides: mechanism of action, resistance evolution and stewardship

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2020
Herbicides play an important role in preventing crop yield losses due to both their weed interference ability and their capacity for increasing soil conservation in no-till systems.

Does insecticide resistance contribute to heterogeneities in malaria transmission in The Gambia? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Malaria hotspots, areas with consistently higher than average transmission, may become increasingly common as malaria declines. This phenomenon, currently observed in The Gambia, may be caused by several factors, including some related to the

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...

Targeting substrate-site in Jak2 kinase prevents emergence of genetic resistance [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2015
AbstractEmergence of genetic resistance against kinase inhibitors poses a great challenge for durable therapeutic response. Here, we report a novel mechanism of JAK2 kinase inhibition by fedratinib (TG101348) that prevents emergence of genetic resistance. Using in vitro drug screening, we identified 211 amino-acid substitutions conferring resistance to

Is hormesis an underestimated factor in the development of herbicide resistance?

open access: yesJulius-Kühn-Archiv, 2014
The growing impact of herbicide resistant weeds increasingly affects weed management and the delay of resistance evolution has become a major task of chemical weed control.

Herbicide Resistance and Management Options of Papaver rhoeas L. and Centaurea cyanus L. in Europe: A Review

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
Corn poppy (Papaver rhoeas L.) and cornflower (Centaurea cyanus L.) are two overwintering weed species found in crop fields in Europe. They are characterised by a similar life cycle, similar competitive efforts, and a spectrum of herbicides recommended ...
