A number of bacterial virulence factors have been observed to adopt structures similar to that of aerolysin, the principal toxin of Aeromonas species. However, a comprehensive description of architecture and structure of the aerolysin-like superfamily has ...
Hyaline Fibromatosis Syndrome (HFS) is a rare inherited disease that is characterized by an accumulation of an unidentified hyaline material, largely affecting connective tissues. Patients afflicted with HFS present a wide range of clinical symptoms such a ...
Pseudomonas entomophila is an entomopathogenic bacterium that infects and kills Drosophila. P. entomophila pathogenicity is linked to its ability to cause irreversible damages to the Drosophila gut, preventing epithelium renewal and repair. Here we report ...
Background: Proteins are the primary regulatory agents of transcription even though mRNA expression data alone, from systems like DNA microarrays, are widely used. In addition, the regulation process in genetic systems is inherently non-linear in nature, a ...
