Metabolomics of aging assessed in individual parasitoid wasps (2016)
Journal Article
Kapranas, A., Snart, C. J., Williams, H. E. L., Hardy, I. C., & Barrett, D. A. (2016). Metabolomics of aging assessed in individual parasitoid wasps. Scientific Reports, 6(1), Article 34848. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep34848

Metabolomics studies of low-biomass organisms, such as small insects, have previously relied on the pooling of biological samples to overcome detection limits, particularly using NMR. We show that the differentiation of metabolite profiles of individ... Read More about Metabolomics of aging assessed in individual parasitoid wasps.

SilE is an intrinsically disordered periplasmic ‘molecular sponge' involved in bacterial silver resistance (2016)
Journal Article
Asiani, K. R., Williams, H. E. L., Bird, L., Jenner, M., Searle, M. S., Hobman, J. L., Scott, D. J., & Soultanas, P. (2016). SilE is an intrinsically disordered periplasmic ‘molecular sponge' involved in bacterial silver resistance. Molecular Microbiology, 101(5), 731-742. https://doi.org/10.1111/mmi.13399

Ag+ resistance was initially found on the Salmonella enetrica serovar Typhimurium multi-resistance plasmid pMG101 from burns patients in 1975. The putative model of Ag+ resistance, encoded by the sil operon from pMG101, involves export of Ag+ via an...
