BEHAVIOURAL ADAPTATIONS OF ARGULID PARASITES (CRUSTACEA: BRANCHIURA) TO MAJOR CHALLENGES IN THEIR LIFE CYCLE



Effects of rain events on Cryptosporidium spp. levels in commercial shellfish zones in the Hillsborough River, Prince Edward Island, Canada

A longitudinal study was conducted during the 2014 spring eastern oyster harvesting season in Prince Edward Island.The concentrations of Cryptosporidium oocysts were assessed in seawater and oyster samples taken from three commercial shellfish zones (Approved, Restricted, and Prohibited) one day before a rain event (of at least 15 mm), and on days

MS-Based Approaches Enable the Structural Characterization of Transcription Factor/DNA Response Element Complex

The limited information available on the structure of complexes involving transcription factors and cognate DNA response elements represents a major obstacle in the quest to understand their mechanism of action at the molecular level.We implemented a concerted structural proteomics approach, which combined hydrogen-deuterium exchange (HDX), quantit
