This paper characterizes CrMATE1, a MATE transporter in Catharanthus roseus, as a vacuolar importer of secologanin, showing its role in MIA biosynthesis and its impact on metabolic flux.

This study identifies the subunit stoichiometry and arrangement of the C. elegans L-AChR and shows functional divergence between ACR-8 and ACR-13.

The paper identifies two residues in the ACR-16 N-AChR that determine whether the receptor requires RIC-3 for functional expression in heterologous systems.

The paper reconstitutes the N-AChR from Brugia malayi in Xenopus oocytes, showing that its response is progressively reduced compared to related species and requires accessory proteins.

The paper presents a high-quality, chromosome-scale genome assembly of Haemonchus contortus using long-read sequencing, revealing genetic diversity and transcriptional regulation.

This paper compares genomes of 81 nematode and platyhelminth species to identify gene families related to parasitism and prioritize new drug targets.
