Theory and computation of covariant Lyapunov vectors

open access: yes, 2012
Lyapunov exponents are well-known characteristic numbers that describe growth rates of perturbations applied to a trajectory of a dynamical system in different state space directions.

Permanental vectors

open access: yesStochastic Processes and their Applications, 2012
A permanental vector is a generalization of a vector with components that are squares of the components of a Gaussian vector, in the sense that the matrix that appears in the Laplace transform of the vector of Gaussian squares is not required to be either symmetric or positive definite.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Nationwide surveillance detects yellow fever and chikungunya viruses in multiple Aedes mosquito species in Nigeria

open access: yesParasites & Vectors
Background Since the reemergence of yellow fever in 2017, the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control (NCDC) has been coordinating responses to local outbreaks with the support of the World Health Organization (WHO).

The influence of temperature and humidity on the flight activity of Culicoides imicola both under laboratory and field conditions

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2019
Background Insight into the factors that regulate the circadian host-seeking flight activity of Culicoides vectors (Diptera: Ceratopogonidae) will be of importance to assess the risk of transmission of Culicoides-borne pathogens.

Molecular Characterization and Phylogenetic Analysis of Spirometra Tapeworms from Snakes in Hunan Province

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
Sparganosis is a neglected zoonotic parasitic disease that poses huge threats to humans worldwide. Snakes play an important role in sparganosis transmission because they are the most common second intermediate hosts for Spirometra parasites. However, the

Boolean Witt vectors and an integral Edrei-Thoma theorem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A subtraction-free definition of the big Witt vector construction was recently given by the first author. This allows one to define the big Witt vectors of any semiring.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

A Systematic Review of the Natural Virome of Anopheles Mosquitoes

open access: yesViruses, 2018
Anopheles mosquitoes are vectors of human malaria, but they also harbor viruses, collectively termed the virome. The Anopheles virome is relatively poorly studied, and the number and function of viruses are unknown. Only the o’nyong-nyong arbovirus (ONNV)

Frequency of pyrethroid resistance in human head louse treatment: systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesParasite, 2021
Head lice (Pediculus humanus capitis) are one of the most common insects causing infestations in humans worldwide, and infestation is associated with adverse socio-economic and public health effects. The development of genetic insensitivity (e.g., target
