Computational characterization of iron metabolism in the tsetse disease vector, glossina morsitans: Ire stem-loops
(BMC, 2016)Iron metabolism and regulation is an indispensable part of species survival, most importantly for blood feeding insects. Iron regulatory proteins are central regulators of iron homeostasis, whose binding to iron response ... -
Evolution and structural analysis of Glossina morsitans (Diptera; Glossinidae) Tetraspanins
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2014)Tetraspanins are important conserved integral membrane proteins expressed in many organisms. Although there is limited knowledge about the full repertoire, evolution and structural characteristics of individual members ... -
Genome sequence of the tsetse fly (glossina morsitans): vector of African trypanosomiasis
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2014)Tsetse flies are the sole vectors of human African trypanosomiasis throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Both sexes of adult tsetse feed exclusively on blood and contribute to disease transmission. Notable differences between ...
