DOI: 10.1038/s41467-020-14991-w
Abstract: Wildfires can encourage the establishment of invasive plants by releasing potent germination stimulants, such as karrikins. Seed germination of Brassica tournefortii , a noxious weed of Mediterranean climates, is strongly stimulated by KAR 1 ,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pntd.0010743
Abstract: Mosquito saliva proteins modulate the human immune and hemostatic systems and control mosquito-borne pathogenic infections. One mechanism through which mosquito proteins may influence host immunity and hemostasis is their interactions with key human receptor proteins… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms222111981
Abstract: Transmembrane receptor proteins are located in the plasma membranes of biological cells where they exert important functions. Archaerhodopsin (Arch) proteins belong to a class of transmembrane receptor proteins called photoreceptors that react to light. Although… read more here.
