Researchers have identified that species in the gut microbiome can produce sphingolipids that protect the host from pathogens ...

Pathogens target but not disrupt host networks. As mentioned before, pathogen proteins bind to specific targets in the host that are involved in defined biological functions (A summary of all ...

The evolution of pathogens has received attention in a wide range of scientific fields, such as epidemiology, demography, and evolutionary ecology. Understanding pathogen evolution is particularly ...

The totality of bacteria, viruses and fungi that exist in and on a multicellular organism forms its natural microbiome. The ...

Heterogeneity in host populations significantly influences pathogen evolution, yet most theories assume uniformity. This study uses a meta-population model to examine how local environmental ...

The intracellular pathogen Salmonella enterica survives inside host cells by using diverse molecular machineries and cellular trafficking networks to support its own growth [Aleksandra Krolik/EMBL ...

Id: 041857 Credits Min: 3 Credits Max: 3 Description. This transdisciplinary course will examine the interface between pathogens and their hosts at multiple levels. We will begin with molecular and ...

Researchers at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute (VBI) at Virginia Tech and Montana State University have discovered a fungal protein that plays a key role in causing disease in plants and animals ...
