Construction of polyomavirus-derived pseudotype virus-like particles displaying a functionally active neutralizing antibody against hepatitis B virus surface antigen [PDF]
, 2015 Background: Virus-like particles (VLPs) can be efficiently produced by heterologous expression of viral structural proteins in yeast. Due to their repetitive structure, VLPs are extensively used for protein engineering and generation of chimeric VLPs ...

Tree shrews (Tupaia belangeri) exhibit novelty preference in the novel location memory task with 24-h retention periods [PDF]
, 2014 Novelty preference is pervasive in mammalian species, and describes an inherent tendency to preferentially explore novelty. The novel location memory task studied here assesses the ability of animals to form accurate memories of a spatial configuration ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.We investigated the adaptive genetic diversity within a population of Rhinopithecus bieti using amplicon sequencing. From 47 individuals, we identified 16 MHC class I sequences, revealing a low level of adaptive genetic variation. Although evidence for balancing selection, including positive selection and trans‐species polymorphism, was observed, these

Molecular mechanism of the tree shrew's insensitivity to spiciness. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2018 Spicy foods elicit a pungent or hot and painful sensation that repels almost all mammals. Here, we observe that the tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri chinensis), which possesses a close relationship with primates and can directly and actively consume spicy ...

Does limited virucidal activity of biocides include duck hepatitis B virucidal action? [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: There is agreement that the infectivity assay with the duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) is a suitable surrogate test to validate disinfectants for hepatitis B virucidal activity.

Kōtuitui: New Zealand Journal of Social Sciences Online, Volume 21, Issue 1, March 2026.This paper examines how generative artificial intelligence (AI) reproduces colonial visual tropes when tasked with representing Aotearoa New Zealand's historical past. Using OpenAI's Sora as a case study, the analysis investigates AI‐generated images prompted to depict (1) precolonial landscapes, (2) first contact between Māori and Europeans, (3 ...
