Abstract: <p>Giardia intestinalis is a parasitic protozoan that possesses a flavohemoglobin (gFlHb), an enzyme that plays a role in the detoxification of reactive nitrogen species (RNS) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) via its nitric oxide dioxygenase (NOD) activity as well as its NADH-oxidase activity. This enzyme is a potential target for imidazole-based antigiardial drugs that act as ligands of… more

Abstract: <p>Cytokinins (CKs) are adenine derivative molecules that are present in all kingdoms of life. CKs are known to have a role in cell growth and development in plants. However, the role of CKs in vertebrate systems is not well understood. Frog virus 3 (FV3) is a type species of the Iridioviridae family, genus Ranavirus. FV3 is a major contributor to the amphibian population decline in North… more
