Entomological assessment of dengue virus transmission risk in three urban areas of Kenya.

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2019
Urbanization is one of the major drivers of dengue epidemics globally. In Kenya, an intriguing pattern of urban dengue virus epidemics has been documented in which recurrent epidemics are reported from the coastal city of Mombasa, whereas no outbreaks ...

Vector competence of Florida mosquitoes for chikungunya virus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vector Ecology, 2010
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV, family Togaviridae, genus Alphavirus) has re-emerged and caused human epidemics in Europe, Africa, Asia, and India in recent years (Bessaud et al. 2006, Powers and Logue 2007, Peyrefitte et al. 2008, Leo et al. 2009). The debilitating disease caused by CHIKV results in fever, skin rash, and arthritis-like pain in small ...

Effective vector competence of the Cairns DENV-3.

open access: yes, 2013
Top: The change in vector competence over time through a population of vectors is a dynamic process. Here the difference in dynamic vector competence between the 2008/09 (dashed line) and 1997/98 (solid line) strains is shown. These linear functions then

Golgi enzymes are retrieved from the plasma membrane to the trans‐Golgi network

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Golgi enzymes are traditionally considered resident proteins retained within the Golgi apparatus. Here, we demonstrate that a subset transiently reaches the cell surface and is subsequently retrieved to the trans‐Golgi network via retrograde transport. Using a nanobody‐based toolkit, we uncover a dynamic trafficking cycle of several Golgi enzymes.

Structures of mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase reveal carrier‐domain translocation between catalytic sites

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterial 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA carboxylase uses a mobile biotin‐carrying domain to shuttle a carboxyl group between two catalytic sites, enabling carboxylation of 3‐methylcrotonyl‐CoA during leucine breakdown. Cryo‐electron microscopy captures the carrier at both sites and reveals an inward loop movement that may prevent futile rebinding to the ...

The Vector Model of Competence Diagnostics

open access: yesMediterranean Journal of Social Sciences, 2015
The article summarizes the results of the theoretical study of the problem of diagnostics designing that takes into account the multidimensional nature of competence. Competences aggregate inconsistent components. Therefore, in order to describe them, it is natural to apply the category of multidimensionality.

Bacillus sphaericus exposure reduced vector competence of Anopheles dirus to Plasmodium yoelii by upregulating the Imd signaling pathway

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Vector control with Bacillus sphaericus (Bs) is an effective way to block the transmission of malaria. However, in practical application of Bs agents, a sublethal dose effect was often caused by insufficient dosing, and it is little known ...

The neovolcanic axis is a barrier to gene flow among Aedes aegypti populations in Mexico that differ in vector competence for Dengue 2 virus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2009
Aedes aegypti is the main mosquito vector of the four serotypes of dengue virus (DENV). Previous population genetic and vector competence studies have demonstrated substantial genetic structure and major differences in the ability to transmit dengue ...

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.
