TL;DR: The first genome sequence of a nondipteran insect vector of an important human parasitic disease is described, which provides critical information on the physiology and evolution of this important vector species and should be instrumental for the development of innovative disease control methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A new view of the triatomine digestive apparatus is presented and a role for MAP kinases, GTPases, and LKBP1/AMP kinases related to control of cell shape and polarity is suggested, possibly in connection with regulation of cell survival, response of pathogens and nutrients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of PEA-15, a major substrate for protein kinase C in astrocytes.
TL;DR: This work has identified a sequence, phosphorylated in intact astrocytes and in vitro by PKC, containing a consensus site for PKC: LTRIPSAKK, and proposed to name this protein PEA-15, for Phosphoprotein Enriched in Astrocytes-15 kDa, according to its large enrichment in these cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The embryonic development of the cattle tick is analyzed to provide fundamental common ground for improving knowledge regarding tick embryonic development, thereby facilitating the establishment of a new chelicerate model system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rhodnius prolixus: From classical physiology to modern developmental biology
TL;DR: Early studies on this model insect are reviewed and how this paved the way for recent functional studies using the kissing bug are reviewed.
