Transferrin is an evolutionary conserved protein that in addition to having a critical role in iron transport also has been shown to have a crucial role in host defence. Transferrin has been shown to sequester iron from invading pathogens, act directly against microbial pathogens, and is an...

Understanding the evolution of the membrane trafficking system in diverse eukaryotes through comparative genomics and transcriptomics
DownloadSpring 2018
Single-celled organisms represent the majority of eukaryotic diversity. Recent advances in sequencing technologies have been critical for understanding the evolutionary biology and cell biology of microbial eukaryotes. Comparative genomic analyses have shown that many genes that underlie...

Hamelin, Richard C., Tsui, Clement K.M., Bohlmann, Jörg, DiGuistini, Scott, Dhillon, Braham, Feau, Nicolas, Wang, Ye
Sexual reproduction in fungi is regulated by the mating-type (MAT) locus where recombination is suppressed. We investigated the evolution of MAT loci in eight fungal species belonging to Grosmannia and Ophiostoma (Sordariomycetes, Ascomycota) that include conifer pathogens and beetle symbionts....

Smallpox was eradicated using vaccinia viruses (VACV) as vaccines, including Dryvax, a calf-lymph vaccine derived from the New York City Board of Health (NYCBH) strain, and TianTan, a chicken egg cultured vaccine used exclusively in China. To take advantage of the next generation sequencing...
