Journal Article
Immunologic control of a parasitic arthropod. Identification of a protective antigen from Boophilus microplus.
Peter Willadsen,George Riding,R.V. McKenna,D.H. Kemp,Ross L. Tellam,J N Nielsen,J Lahnstein,Gary Stewart Cobon,J M Gough +8 more
TL;DR: Microgram amounts of the responsible tick gut Ag are able to induce effective protection in cattle against the parasite, as shown by the decreased survival of ticks on vaccinated cattle and a reduction in engorgement weights and egg laying capacity of the survivors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of a Major Peritrophic Membrane Protein, Peritrophin-44, from the Larvae of Lucilia cuprina cDNA AND DEDUCED AMINO ACID SEQUENCES
Chris Elvin,Tony Vuocolo,Roger Pearson,Iain J. East,George Riding,C.H. Eisemann,Ross L. Tellam +6 more
TL;DR: The first characterization of an insect peritrophic membrane protein was reported in this paper, showing that the multiple cysteine-rich domains in peritrophin-44 are responsible for binding to chitin.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation from the cattle tick, Boophilus microplus, of antigenic material capable of eliciting a protective immunological response in the bovine host.
TL;DR: It has been shown that protective antigens can be isolated from crude membrane preparations by detergent extraction, gel permeation chromatography and preparative isoelectric tocussing and Appropriate combination of these techniques allows a high degree of purification to be achieved.
Journal Article
A protective "concealed" antigen from Boophilus microplus. Purification, localization, and possible function.
TL;DR: A membrane protein that can be used successfully to vaccinate cattle against the tick Boophilus microplus has been purified and characterized, and partial amino acid sequence data show striking similarities to that of mammalian angiotensin-converting enzyme, suggesting that the Ag may have an enzymatic function.
Journal ArticleDOI
TaNAC69 from the NAC superfamily of transcription factors is up-regulated by abiotic stresses in wheat and recognises two consensus DNA-binding sequences.
TL;DR: Subdomain mutation showed that a loss or reduction in TaNAC69 dimerisation capacity was accompanied with abolition or decrease in its DNA-binding activity, suggesting that all subdomains are necessary to maintain a functional NAC domain structure required for interaction with DNA and dimerification.
