The intracellular protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii divides by a unique process of
internal budding that involves the assembly of two daughter cells within the mother. The …

In the genome of SARS-CoV-2, the 5′-terminus encodes a polyprotein, which is further
cleaved into 15 non-structural proteins whereas the 3′ terminus encodes four structural …

Plants recognize pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) via cell surface-
localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), leading to PRR-triggered immunity (PTI) …

The predicted protein encoded by the APJ gene discovered in 1993 was originally classified
as a class AG protein-coupled orphan receptor but was subsequently paired with a novel …

S-Palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational modification that results in the addition of a
C16-carbon saturated fatty acyl chain to cytoplasmic cysteine residues. This modification is …
