Journal ArticleDOI

Jianxu Li,Jianxu Li,Hongbing Wu,Jing Hong,Xueqing Xu,Xueqing Xu,Hailong Yang,Bingxian Wu,Yipeng Wang,Yipeng Wang,Jianhua Zhu,Ren Lai,Xinguo Jiang,Donghai Lin,Mark C. Prescott,Huw H. Rees +15 more
TL;DR: These findings identify the smallest lectin so far, and show the application potential of odorranalectin for drug delivery and targeting, and disclosed a new strategy of amphibian anti-infection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential proteomic analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana genotypes exhibiting resistance or susceptibility to the insect herbivore, Plutella xylostella.
Richard M. Collins,Muhammed Afzal,Deborah Ward,Mark C. Prescott,Steven M. Sait,Huw H. Rees,A. Brian Tomsett +6 more
TL;DR: The proteomic results suggest that enhanced production of ROS may be a major pre-existing mechanism of Plutella resistance in Arabidopsis, but definitive corroboration of this requires much further work.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Sigma class glutathione transferase from the liver fluke Fasciola hepatica.
E. James LaCourse,Samirah Perally,Russell M. Morphew,Joseph V. Moxon,Mark C. Prescott,David J. Dowling,Sandra M. O’Neill,Anja Kipar,Udo Hetzel,Elizabeth M. Hoey,Rafael Zafra,L. Buffoni,José Pérez Arévalo,Peter M. Brophy +13 more
TL;DR: It is shown that a purified recombinant form of the F. hepatica Sigma class GST has likely multi-functional roles in the host-parasite interaction from general detoxification and bile acid sequestration to PGD synthase activity and influences activity of host immune cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation and characterisation of intact steryl ferulates from seeds
TL;DR: The feasibility of the above approach was established using the well characterised steryl ferulate mixture γ-oryzanol obtained from rice bran oil, and the methods were subsequently applied to the analysis of theSteryl ferulates present in seeds of maize.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of methyl farnesoate in the cypris larva of the barnacle, Balanus amphitrite, and its role as a juvenile hormone
Pauline A Smith,Anthony S. Clare,Huw H. Rees,Mark C. Prescott,Geoffrey Wainwright,Michael C. Thorndyke +5 more
TL;DR: Analysis of cypris extracts by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with selected ion monitoring confirmed the presence of endogenous MF, providing evidence that MF functions as a juvenilizing hormone in barnacle cyprids, an effect that hitherto has not been noted.
