Article Abstract

Lethal restrictive dermopathy is genodermatoses associated with lamin protein defects resulting in connective tissue abnormalities of skin, musculoskeletal, and adipose tissue. We report one such case with a mutation in the gene which is involved in lamin protein synthesis, resulting in fetal akinesia or hypokinesia deformation sequence. Early recognition in the perinatal period of distinctive clinical and skin histological features followed by molecular diagnosis enabled genetic counseling for the affected family.

African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a large DNA virus that causes a highly lethal disease in pigs and currently has no effective vaccines or antiviral treatments available. We designed a protein switch that combines the DNase domain of colicin E9 (DNase E9) and its inhibitor Im9 with the viral protease cleavage site. The complex is only destroyed in the presence of an ASFV pS273R protease, which releases DNase activity.

Pesticide exposure and climate change are key drivers of pollinator declines. Exposure to certain pesticides and high temperatures can influence the cognitive ability of insect pollinators, such as bees, but little is known about how these stressors interact. As central place foragers, bees must learn and remember floral cues, and so impaired memory may influence foraging efficiency and fitness.

This enteric pathogen deploys various mechanisms to evade the intestinal mucosal barrier to enhance its survival and further infect systemic tissues. Commercially available vaccines against are currently restricted to the serovar Typhi, while none are currently approved for non-typhoidal (NTS) serovars, which are becoming increasingly resistant to antibiotics.
