Journal ArticleDOI

Exploration of Ellsworth Subglacial Lake: a concept paper on the development, organisation and execution of an experiment to explore, measure and sample the environment of a West Antarctic subglacial lake

TL;DR: A consortium of over 20 scientists from seven countries and 14 institutions has been assembled to plan the exploration of Lake Ellsworth, a subglacial lake in West Antarctica, which has been hypothesised to house unique forms of life and hold detailed sedimentary records of past climate change.
Journal ArticleDOI

The yeast model for Batten disease: a role for Btn2p in the trafficking of the Golgi-associated vesicular targeting protein, Yif1p

TL;DR: It is proposed that up-regulation of Btn2p in btn1-delta is an indicator of altered trafficking within the cell, and that altered intracellular trafficking may contribute to some of the cellular pathological hallmarks of this disease Batten disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glutamic acid decarboxylase autoimmunity in Batten disease and other disorders.

TL;DR: The pathogenic potential of GAD autoantibodies is examined in light of what is known for other autoimmune disorders, such as multiple sclerosis, SPS, Rasmussen encephalitis, and type 1 diabetes, and may have radical implications for diagnosis and management of Batten disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation, Characterisation, and Lipase Production of a Cold-Adapted Bacterial Strain Pseudomonas sp. LSK25 Isolated from Signy Island, Antarctica.

TL;DR: This study focuses on bacterial strains isolated from anthropogenically-influenced soil samples collected around Signy Island Research Station, and found the highest level of sequence similarity to a Pseudomonas sp.
