Computational Immunohistochemistry: Recipes for Standardization of Immunostaining

Nuri Murat Arar, Maria Gabrani, Aditya Kashyap, Pushpak Pati, Anna Fomitcheva Khartchenko

Cancer diagnosis and personalized cancer treatment are heavily based on the visual assessment of immunohistochemically-stained tissue specimens. The precision of this assessment depends critically on the quality of immunostaining, which is governed by a nu ...

NAR Breakthrough Article Crystal structure of Hop2-Mnd1 and mechanistic insights into its role in meiotic recombination

Matteo Dal Peraro, Alexandra Styliani Kalantzi

In meiotic DNA recombination, the Hop2-Mnd1 complex promotes Dmc1-mediated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) invasion into homologous chromosomes to form a synaptic complex by a yet-unclear mechanism. Here, the crystal structure of Hop2-Mnd1 reveals that it form ...

Rad51 paralogues Rad55-Rad57 balance the antirecombinase Srs2 in Rad51 filament formation

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Jie Liu

Homologous recombination is a high-fidelity DNA repair pathway. Besides a critical role in accurate chromosome segregation during meiosis, recombination functions in DNA repair and in the recovery of stalled or broken replication forks to ensure genomic st ...

A novel protein kinase family in Plasmodium falciparum is differentially transcribed and secreted to various cellular compartments of the host cell

Processes at the surface of Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes such as antigenic variation and cytoadhesion may be modulated by active signalling between host and parasite. Potential candidates for this role include the putative kinases of the FIK ...

Pre-replication complex organization in the atypical DNA replication cycle of Plasmodium falciparum: characterization of the mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) complex formation

The overall organization of cell division in Plasmodium is unique compared to that observed in model organisms because DNA replicates more than once per cell cycle at several points of its life cycle. The sequencing of the Plasmodium genome has also reveal ...

Plasmodium falciparum glycogen synthase kinase-3: molecular model, expression, intracellular localisation and selective inhibitors

Worldwide increasing resistance of Plasmodium falciparum to common anti-malaria agents calls for the urgent identification of new drugs. Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) represents a potential screening target for the identification of such new compounds ...

Primary and secondary structure of the pore-forming peptide of pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg

A pore-forming peptide is implicated in the potent cytolytic activity of pathogenic Entamoeba histolytica. Using NH2-terminal sequence information of this peptide, the corresponding cDNA was isolated. The cDNA-deduced amino acid sequence revealed a putativ ...
