Diester Chlorogenoborate Complex: A New Naturally Occurring Boron-Containing Compound

A new naturally occurring polyamine containing a quaternary ammonium nitrogen.

A new polyamine, tetrakis(3-aminopropyl)ammonium, N+ (CH2CH2CH2NH2)4, was identified in cells of an extreme thermophile, Thermus thermophilus. This compound was chemically synthesized and its chemical properties were coincident with those of the amine isolated from the thermophile.

Naturally occurring ehrlichiosis in Egyptian dogs

Canine ehrlichiosis has emerged as one of the most clinically important tick-borne diseases affecting dogs. Eighty-five naturally infected dogs have been investigated, the most consistent clinical signs recorded were fever, emaciation and lymphoadenopathy, anemia, monocytosis, thrompocytopenia, hypoalbuminemia, elevation in liver enzymes and total bilirubin were the most remarkable changes asso...

Production of transmitochondrial cybrids containing naturally occurring pathogenic mtDNA variants

The human mitochondrial genome (mtDNA) encodes polypeptides that are critical for coupling oxidative phosphorylation. Our detailed understanding of the molecular processes that mediate mitochondrial gene expression and the structure-function relationships of the OXPHOS components could be greatly improved if we were able to transfect mitochondria and manipulate mtDNA in vivo. Increasing our kno...
