The effects of long-term exclusion of the limpet Cymbula oculus (Born) on the distribution of intertidal organisms on a rocky shore
(NISC (Pty) Ltd and Taylor & Francis, 2009)
Zonation patterns on rocky shores are typically as a result of both physical factors
and biological interactions. Physical factors generally set the upper limits of species
distributions, while biological interactions ...
Structural comparison of diverse HIV-1 subtypes using molecular modelling and docking analyses of integrase inhibitors
(MPDI, 2020)
The process of viral integration into the host genome is an essential step of the HIV-1 life cycle. The viral integrase (IN) enzyme catalyzes integration. IN is an ideal therapeutic enzyme targeted by several drugs; ...
Records of ctenophores from South Africa
(PeerJ, 2021)
Although ctenophores can be conspicuous components of the plankton in coastal marine ecosystems, only six species have been formally described from around South Africa. Using photographs from local community scientists, ...

(PeerJ Inc., 2021)
Although ctenophores can be conspicuous components of the plankton in coastal marine ecosystems, only six species have been formally described from around South Africa. Using photographs from local community scientists, ...
Observations on euphausiid communities of the south coast of South Africa
(NISC (Pty) Ltd and Taylor& Francis, 1995)
A total of 24 species of euphausiid was collected during a survey along the South African south coast during January 1992. Communities over the Agulhas Bank were of low diversity and abundance and were dominated by Nycliphanes ...
Hydromedusae off the Orange River Mouth, Southern Africa
(NISC (Pty) Ltd and Taylor& Francis, 2003)
A total of 242 zooplankton samples from the upper 100 m of the water column was collected discontinuously from March 1997 to January 1999 off the Orange River mouth on the west coast of southern Africa. Six species of ...
Increasing African genomic data generation and sharing to resolve rare and undiagnosed diseases in Africa: A call‑to‑action by the H3Africa rare diseases working group
(BMC, 2022)
The rich and diverse genomics of African populations is significantly underrepresented in reference and in diseaseassociated
databases. This renders interpreting the Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data and reaching a ...
Understanding biobanking : An assessment of the public engagement speaking book intervention Biobanking and Me
(South African Medical Association, 2019)
Meaningful engagement with donors of biological samples intended for human-sample biobanking increases knowledge, and allows donors to make informed decisions. Informed donors provide a platform for public awareness, ...
Modelling human protein interaction networks as metric spaces has potential in disease research and drug target discovery
(BMC, 2014)
We have recently shown by formally modelling human protein interaction networks (PINs) as metric
spaces and classified proteins into zones based on their distance from the topological centre that hub proteins are
primarily ...
Phylogeographic investigation of the bladder grasshopper Bullacris unicolor (Orthoptera Pneumoroidea) in South Africa
(Taylor and Francis Group, 2023)
There are several factors, such as genetic drift, gene flow and migration that affect the population genetic structure and phylogeographic distribution of genetic lineages within single species. Previous studies of the ...
