On the validity of evolutionary models with site-specific parameters.
Evolutionary models that make use of site-specific parameters have recently been criticized on the grounds that parameter estimates obtained under such models can be unreliable and lack theoretical guarantees of convergence.We present a simulation study providing empirical evidence that a simple version of the models in question does exhibit sensib
Low iron-induced small RNA BrrF regulates central metabolism and oxidative stress responses in Burkholderia cenocepacia.
Regulatory small RNAs play an essential role in maintaining cell homeostasis in bacteria in response to environmental stresses such as iron starvation.Prokaryotes generally encode a large number of RNA regulators, yet their identification and characterisation is still in its infancy for most bacterial species.Burkholderia cenocepacia is an opportun
Structural and Mechanical Aberrations of the Nuclear Lamina in Disease
The nuclear lamins are the major components of the nuclear lamina in the nuclear envelope.Lamins are involved in numerous functions, including a role in providing structural support to the cell and the mechanosensing of the verona wig cell.Mutations in the genes encoding for lamins lead to the rare diseases termed laminopathies.However, not only la
A Longitudinal Study on Campylobacter spp. in an Integrated Broiler Complex in the Southeast Region of the United States: Prevalence and Phylogenetic Analysis
Poultry meat products are considered the major contributors to Campylobacteriosis in humans.The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence status, critical entry points, and movement patterns of Campylobacter spp.along different stages of an integrated broiler complex.To isolate bacteria and perform phylogenetic analysis, a total of 79
