Hemichordate genomes and deuterostome origins

TL;DR: The draft genome sequences of two acorn worms are reported, identifying shared traits that were probably inherited from the last common deuterostome ancestor, and exploring evolutionary trajectories leading from this ancestor to hemichordates, echinoderms and chordates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a recombinant tetravalent dengue virus vaccine: immunogenicity and efficacy studies in mice and monkeys.

TL;DR: Results support the development of a dengue virus tetravalent vaccine based on the four 80E subunits produced in the Drosophila S2 cell expression system, which are highly immunogenic and capable of eliciting protective responses in both mice and monkeys.
Journal ArticleDOI

An analysis of the partial metabolic derepression of sea urchin eggs by ammonia: The existence of independent pathways

TL;DR: It is found that ammonia activation does not result in the early respiratory burst and also does not initiate the late activation of Na+-dependent amino acid transport, indicating that augmentation of protein synthesis is causally linked neither to the earlier Na-influx, cortical reactions, and respiratory burst nor to the later activation of amino acid Transport.
