Plasmodium centrin PbCEN-4 localizes to the putative MTOC and is dispensable for malaria parasite proliferation (2018)
Journal Article
Roques, M., Stanway, R. R., Rea, E. I., Markus, R., Brady, D., Holder, A. A., …Tewari, R. (2018). Plasmodium centrin PbCEN-4 localizes to the putative MTOC and is dispensable for malaria parasite proliferation. Biology Open, 8(1), Article bio.036822. https://doi.org/10.1242/bio.036822

Centrins are calmodulin-like phosphoproteins present in the centrosome and play an active role in the duplication, separation and organization of centrosomal structures such as the microtubule-organizing centre (MTOC) during mitosis. They are also ma... Read More about Plasmodium centrin PbCEN-4 localizes to the putative MTOC and is dispensable for malaria parasite proliferation.

Quantitative methods to monitor RNA biomarkers in myotonic dystrophy (2018)
Journal Article
Wojciechowska, M., Sobczak, K., Kozlowski, P., Sedehizadeh, S., Wojtkowiak-Szlachcic, A., Czubak, K., Markus, R., Lusakowska, A., Kaminska, A., & Brook, J. D. (in press). Quantitative methods to monitor RNA biomarkers in myotonic dystrophy. Scientific Reports, 8, Article 5885. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-018-24156-x

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) and type 2 (DM2) are human neuromuscular disorders associated with mutations of simple repetitive sequences in afected genes. The abnormal expansion of CTG repeats in the 3′-UTR of the DMPK gene elicits DM1, whereas el... Read More about Quantitative methods to monitor RNA biomarkers in myotonic dystrophy.
