Paulo D, Nguyen T, Ward C, Corpuz R, Kauwe A, Rendon P, et al.
Commun Biol . 2025 Jan; 8(1):60. PMID: 39814836
The remarkable diversity of insect pigmentation offers a captivating avenue for studying evolution and genetics. In tephritids, understanding the molecular basis of mutant traits is also crucial for applied entomology,...

Ward C, Onetto C, Borneman A
Genome Biol Evol . 2024 Nov; 16(12). PMID: 39561190
Fungi have been found to be associated with many insect species, with some species transitioning to reside within insects as symbionts. However, the evolutionary pressures and genomic consequences associated with...

Onetto C, Ward C, Van Den Heuvel S, Hale L, Cuijvers K, Borneman A
Environ Microbiol . 2024 Jun; 26(6):e16660. PMID: 38822592
Over 6 years, we conducted an extensive survey of spontaneous grape fermentations, examining 3105 fungal microbiomes across 14 distinct grape-growing regions. Our investigation into the biodiversity of these fermentations revealed...

Ward C, Onetto C, Van Den Heuvel S, Cuijvers K, Hale L, Borneman A
PLoS Genet . 2024 Mar; 20(3):e1011223. PMID: 38517929
Cultural exchange of fermentation techniques has driven the spread of Saccharomyces cerevisiae across the globe, establishing natural populations in many countries. Despite this, Oceania is thought to lack native populations...

Sharaireh A, FitzPatrick L, Ward C, McKay T, Unwin R
Stem Cells . 2020 Jul; 38(10):1292-1306. PMID: 32621788
Inhibition of E-cad in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) leads to a switch from LIF-BMP to Activin/Nodal-dependent pluripotency, consistent with transition from a naïve to primed pluripotent phenotype. We have...

Tran H, Gibbs H, Merriman E, Curnow J, Young L, Bennett A, et al.
Med J Aust . 2019 Feb; 210(5):227-235. PMID: 30739331
Introduction: Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is the third most common cardiovascular disease and, globally, more than an estimated 10 million people have...

Ward C, Wardle S, Singh R, Haniford D
Mol Microbiol . 2007 May; 64(4):1000-13. PMID: 17501923
The histone-like nucleoid structuring protein (H-NS) is a global transcriptional regulator that influences stress response and virulence pathways in Gram-negative bacteria. H-NS also promotes Tn10 transposition by binding directly to...

Smith R, Miller T, Yamanaka K, Monia B, Condon T, Hung G, et al.
J Clin Invest . 2006 Aug; 116(8):2290-6. PMID: 16878173
Neurotoxicity from accumulation of misfolded/mutant proteins is thought to drive pathogenesis in neurodegenerative diseases. Since decreasing levels of proteins responsible for such accumulations is likely to ameliorate disease, a therapeutic...

Rao M, Garcia M, Miyazaki Y, Gotow T, Yuan A, Mattina S, et al.
J Cell Biol . 2002 Aug; 158(4):681-93. PMID: 12186852
The COOH-terminal tail of mammalian neurofilament heavy subunit (NF-H), the largest neurofilament subunit, contains 44-51 lysine-serine-proline repeats that are nearly stoichiometrically phosphorylated after assembly into neurofilaments in axons. Phosphorylation of...
