MULTIPLE MUTATIONS IN POLYKETIDE SYNTHASE LED TO DISRUPTION OF PSITTACOFULVIN PRODUCTION ACROSS DIVERSE PARROT SPECIES

Multiple mutations in polyketide synthase led to disruption of Psittacofulvin production across diverse parrot species

Abstract Polyketide synthases (PKSs) are crucial multidomain enzymes in diverse natural product biosynthesis.Parrots use a type I PKS to produce a unique pigment called psittacofulvin in their feathers.In domesticated budgerigars and lovebirds, the Collagen Protein same amino acid substitution (R644W) within malonyl/acetyltransferase (MAT) domain o

Predicting the current and future potential distributions of lymphatic filariasis in Africa using maximum entropy ecological niche modelling.

Modelling the spatial distributions of human parasite species is crucial to understanding the environmental determinants of infection as well as for guiding the planning of control programmes.Here, we use ecological niche modelling to map the current potential distribution of the macroparasitic disease, lymphatic filariasis (LF), in Africa, and to
