A PHYLOGENETIC SURVEY OF MYOTUBULARIN GENES OF EUKARYOTES: DISTRIBUTION, PROTEIN STRUCTURE, EVOLUTION, AND GENE EXPRESSION

A phylogenetic survey of myotubularin genes of eukaryotes: distribution, protein structure, evolution, and gene expression

Abstract Background Phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) lipids, produced and modified by PtdIns kinases and phosphatases, are critical to the regulation of diverse cellular functions.The myotubularin PtdIns-phosphate phosphatases have been well characterized in yeast and especially animals, where multiple isoforms, both catalytically activ

Unveiling Differential Responses of Granulocytes to Distinct Immunostimulants with Implications in Autoimmune Uveitis

The perception of circulating granulocytes as cells with a predetermined immune response mainly triggered by pathogens is evolving, recognizing their functional heterogeneity and adaptability, particularly within the neutrophil subset.The involvement of these cells in the pathophysiology of autoimmune uveitis has become increasingly clear, yet thei

Global gene expression in Escherichia coli, isolated from the diseased ocular surface of the human eye with a potential to form biofilm

Abstract Background Escherichia coli, the gastrointestinal commensal, is also known to cause ocular infections such as conjunctivitis, keratitis and endophthalmitis.These infections are normally resolved by topical application of an appropriate antibiotic.But, at times these E.coli are resistant to the antibiotic and this could be due to formation
