Metalloids: Semi as Metals yet Full of Antimicrobial Potential
Metalloids such as boron (B), silicon (Si), germanium (Ge), arsenic (As), antimony (Sb), and tellurium (Te) bridge metals and non‐metals, displaying unique chemical versatility. Recent research highlights their diverse antimicrobial and therapeutic potentials, from natural products to synthetic organic and organometallic molcules, underscoring renewed ...

Independent evolution of functionally exchangeable mitochondrial outer membrane import complexes
Assembly and/or insertion of a subset of mitochondrial outer membrane (MOM) proteins, including subunits of the main MOM translocase, require the fungi-specific Mim1/Mim2 complex.

Through the dark continent: African trypanosome developments in the tsetse fly
African trypanosomes are unicellular flagellated parasites causing trypanosomiases in Africa, a group of severe diseases also known as sleeping sickness in human and nagana in cattle.

Glycosomes are peroxisome-related organelles that compartmentalize the glycolytic enzymes in kinetoplastid parasites. These organelles are developmentally regulated in their number and composition, allowing metabolic adaptation to the parasite’s needs in

Differential expression of immune defences is associated with specific host-parasite interactions in insects [PDF]
Recent ecological studies in invertebrates show that the outcome of an infection is dependent on the specific pairing of host and parasite. Such specificity contrasts the long-held view that invertebrate innate immunity depends on a broadspectrum ...

Disruption of the developmental programme of Trypanosoma brucei by genetic ablation of TbZFP1, a differentiation-enriched CCCH protein [PDF]
The regulation of differentiation is particularly important in microbial eukaryotes that inhabit multiple environments. The parasite Trypanosoma brucei is an extreme example of this, requiring exquisite gene regulation during transmission from mammals to
