An in silico pipeline to filter the Toxoplasma gondii proteome for proteins that could traffic to the host cell nucleus and influence host cell epigenetic regulation

To identify genes with putative epigenetic functions, we developed an in silico pipeline to interrogate the T. gondii proteome of 8313 proteins

Comparative analyses of whole genome sequences of Leishmania infantum isolates from humans and dogs in northeastern Brazil

Overall the analyses do not suggest individual sequence variants account for differences in clinical outcome or adaptation to different hosts.

Fine mapping under linkage peaks for symptomatic or asymptomatic outcomes of Leishmania infantum infection in Brazil

The transforming growth factor-beta pathway is important in the immunopathogenesis of Visceral leishmaniasis

Translating aboriginal genomics — four letters closing the gap

Establishing a genomic reference for Australian Aboriginal populations

Genome-wide association study of IgG1 responses to the choline-binding protein PspC of Streptococcus pneumoniae

Delayed development of antibodies to S. pneumoniae in infancy is associated with the development of atopy and asthma.

Prevalence and risk factors for parent-reported recurrent otitis media during early childhood

The prevalence of parent-reported rOM was 26.8% (611/2280) and 5.5% (125/2280) for severe rOM in the Study.

Genetic and environmental factors in the aetiology of hypospadias

The increasing use of assisted reproductive techniques and hormonal manipulation during pregnancy may have been associated with an apparent rise in the...

First genome-wide association study in an Australian Aboriginal population provides insights into genetic risk factors for body mass index and type 2 diabetes

A body mass index (BMI) >22kg/m2 is a risk factor for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Aboriginal Australians.

Folate pathway gene polymorphisms, maternal folic acid use, and risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia

Several studies suggest that maternal folic acid supplementation before or during pregnancy protects against childhood acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL).

Comparative analysis of the full genome of Helicobacter pylori isolate sahul64 identifies genes of high divergence

Genome sequence of Sahul64, an H. pylori strain isolated from an indigenous Australian
