UBIQUITINATION-MEDIATED GOLGI-TO-ENDOSOME SORTING DETERMINES THE TOXIN-ANTIDOTE DUALITY OF FISSION YEAST WTF MEIOTIC DRIVERS

Ubiquitination-mediated Golgi-to-endosome sorting determines the toxin-antidote duality of fission yeast wtf meiotic drivers

Abstract Killer meiotic drivers (KMDs) skew allele transmission in their favor by killing meiotic progeny not inheriting the driver allele.Despite their widespread presence in eukaryotes, the molecular mechanisms behind their selfish behavior are poorly understood.In several fission yeast species, single-gene KMDs belonging to the 15-eg2373cl wtf g

Livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA) isolates of swine origin form robust biofilms.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization of livestock animals is common and prevalence rates for pigs have been reported to be as high as 49%.Mechanisms contributing to the persistent carriage and high prevalence rates of livestock-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA-MRSA) strains in swine herds and pro
