Shaw C, Imamura H, Downing T, Blackburn G, Westrop G, Cotton J, et al.
Antimicrob Agents Chemother . 2019 Oct; 64(1). PMID: 31658971
Understanding the mechanism(s) underpinning drug resistance could lead to novel treatments to reverse the increased tolerance of a pathogen. In this study, paromomycin (PMM) resistance (PMM) was induced in three...

Cell Death Dis . 2012 Sep; 3:e385. PMID: 22951982
Metacaspases (MCAs) are caspase family cysteine peptidases that have been implicated in cell death processes in plants, fungi and protozoa. MCAs have also been suggested to be involved in cell...
