Where food safety meets nutrition outcomes in livestock and fish value chains: a conceptual approach by Häsler, Barbara, Domínguez Salas, Paula, Fornace, K., Garza, M., Grace, Delia, Rushton, Jonathan

“…A recent report by the World Health Organisation indicates that food-borne diseases from animal-source foods constitutes an important health burden worldwide. Only a few studies explore nutrition outcomes and food-borne diseases simultaneously and integrative approaches may be difficult due to limited understanding of disciplinary paradigms. …”

In silico characterization and structural modeling of Dermacentor andersoni p36 immunosuppressive protein by Oyugi, M.O., Kinyua, J.K., Magiri, E.N., Kigoni, M.W., Costa, E.P., Githaka, Naftaly W.

“…Evaluation of p36 protein family as suitable vaccine antigens predicted a p36 homolog in Rhipicephalus appendiculatus, the tick vector of East Coast fever, with an antigenicity score of 0.7701 that compares well with that of Bm86 (0.7681), the protein antigen that constitute commercial tick vaccine Tickgard™. Ab initio modeling of the D. andersoni p36 protein yielded a 3D structure that predicted conserved antigenic region, which has potential of binding immunomodulating ligands including glycerol and lactose, found located within exposed loop, suggesting a likely role in immunosuppressive function of tick p36 proteins. …”

A super-family of transcriptional activators regulates bacteriophage packaging and lysis in Gram-positive bacteria by Quiles-Puchalt, Nuria, Angeles Tormo-Mas, Maria, Campoy, Susana, Toledo-Arana, Alejandro, Monedero, Vicente, Lasa, Inigo, Novick, Richard P., Christie, Gail E., Penadés, José R.

“…Here, we identified and characterized four different families of phage-encoded proteins that function as activators required for transcription of the late operons (morphogenetic and lysis genes) in a large group of phages infecting Gram-positive bacteria. These regulators constitute a super-family of proteins, here named late transcriptional regulators (Ltr), which share common structural, biochemical and functional characteristics and are unique to this group of phages. …”
