TL;DR: Genomic comparisons revealed that reduction in genome size implied loss of redundant metabolic pathways, with maintenance of alternative routes in different species, and indicated a likely transfer event of hemagglutinin-coding DNA sequences from M. gallisepticum to M. synoviae.

TL;DR: In subclass‐specific ELISA, different IgG isotypes showed dominance in the response for each of the recombinant antigens, indicating that this would be the subclass of choice to be assessed for these recombinant proteins.

TL;DR: A proteomic analysis of the E. granulosus metacestode during infection of its intermediate bovine host provides valuable information on parasite survival strategies in the adverse host environment and on the molecular mechanisms underpinning CHD immunopathology.

TL;DR: This work performed an LC-MS/MS proteomic analysis of the excretory-secretory products obtained from the first 48 h of an in vitro culture of the protoscoleces, revealing a set of identified proteins not previously thought to be exposed at the host-parasite interface.

TL;DR: The postembryonic expression pattern of egl-5, the C. elegans member of the Abdominal-B Hox gene paralog group, is determined by means of whole-mount staining with a polyclonal antibody and resembles Hox genes of other animals, suggesting that C. Edwards, in spite of its small cell number and reproducible cell lineages, may not differ greatly from other animals in the way it employs H Cox genes for regional specification during development.
