DOI: 10.1016/j.ijantimicag.2019.01.003
Abstract: Ceftazidime (CAZ) is the antibiotic of choice for the treatment of Burkholderia pseudomallei infection (melioidosis). The chromosomally-encoded PenA β-lactamase possesses weak cephalosporinase activity. The wild-type penA gene confers clinically significant CAZ resistance only when overexpressed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2018.01.016
Abstract: We acquired 21 complete mitogenomes and 6 nearly complete mitogenomes of mantises belonging to 8 families (Hymenopodidae, Iridopterygidae, Mantidae, Metallyticidae, Sibyllidae, Tarachodidae, Thespidae, Toxoderidae) using 14 pairs of mantid specific primer sets and found that… read more here.

Expression pattern of CAPA/pyrokinin neuropeptide genes in Remipedia and silverfish: Rapid differentiation after gene duplication in early Hexapoda, followed by strong conservation of newly established features in insects

DOI: 10.1016/j.peptides.2021.170610
Abstract: Only few genes are known from insects that encode multiple neuropeptides, i.e., peptides that activate different receptors. Among those are the capa and pk genes, which differentiated within Hexapoda following gene duplication. In our study,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-025-61626-z
Abstract: Gene duplication generates gene paralogs that may undergo diverse fates during evolution, and thus serves as a potent catalyst of biological complexity. Genetic paralogs frequently share redundant functions and may also exhibit antagonistic activities by… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s44320-024-00030-z
Abstract: Biological systems can gain complexity over time. While some of these transitions are likely driven by natural selection, the extent to which they occur without providing an adaptive benefit is unknown. At the molecular level,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/molbev/msz031
Abstract: Abstract Because of their symbiotic origin, many mitochondrial proteins are well conserved across eukaryotic kingdoms. It is however less obvious how specific lineages have obtained novel nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins. Here, we report a case of… read more here.
