INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES: Peptide Arrays Break the Species Barrier
Phosphorylation, in which phosphate groups attach to proteins or small molecules, is among the cell's primary means of controlling protein activity. It regulates nearly every aspect of cell life, including cell metabolism , proliferation, viability, differentiation, apoptosis, and transmission of hormone and growth factor signals. Protein kinases are the enzymes that catalyze this myriad of mol...
متن کاملPeptide Arrays for Kinome Analysis of Livestock Species
Reversible protein phosphorylation is a central mechanism for both the transfer of intracellular information and the initiation of cellular responses. Within human medicine, considerable emphasis is placed on understanding and controlling the enzymes (kinases) that are responsible for catalyzing these modifications. This is evident in the prominent use of kinase inhibitors as drugs as well as t...
متن کاملSmall Ruminant Lentiviruses (SRLVs) Break the Species Barrier to Acquire New Host Range
Zoonotic events of simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) from non-human primates to humans have generated the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), one of the most devastating infectious disease of the last century with more than 30 million people dead and about 40.3 million people currently infected worldwide. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1 and HIV-2), the two major viruses that cause ...
متن کاملRabies Control: Could Innovative Financing Break the Deadlock?
The neglected zoonotic diseases (NZDs) have been all but eradicated in wealthier countries but remain major causes of ill-health and mortality in over 80 countries across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The nature of neglect for the NZDs has been ascribed, in part, to underreporting resulting in an underestimation of their global burden that, together with a lack of advocacy, downgrades their ...
متن کاملIntrogressive Hybridization of Schistosoma haematobium Group Species in Senegal: Species Barrier Break Down between Ruminant and Human Schistosomes
BACKGROUND Schistosomes are dioecious parasitic flatworms, which live in the vasculature of their mammalian definitive hosts. They are the causative agent of schistosomiasis, a disease of considerable medical and veterinary importance in tropical and subtropical regions. Schistosomes undergo a sexual reproductive stage within their mammalian host enabling interactions between different species,...
