Ettinger C, Ostovar T, Yacoub M, Ahrendt S, Hice R, Federici B, et al.
Mycologia . 2023 Jul; 115(5):630-647. PMID: 37494633
Species of the phylum Blastocladiomycota, early-diverging zoosporic (flagellated) lineages of fungi, are vastly understudied. This phylum includes the genus , which consists of more than 80 fungal species that are...

Sci Rep . 2021 Aug; 11(1):16402. PMID: 34385487
Ascoviruses are large dsDNA viruses characterized by the extraordinary changes they induce in cellular pathogenesis and architecture whereby after nuclear lysis and extensive hypertrophy, each cell is cleaved into numerous...

Deshpande S, Meiselman M, Hice R, Arensburger P, Rivera-Perez C, Kim D, et al.
Gen Comp Endocrinol . 2018 Dec; 278:79-88. PMID: 30543770
Ecdysis triggering hormone receptors (ETHR) regulate the behavioral sequence necessary for cuticle shedding. Recent reports have documented functions for ETHR signaling in adult Drosophila melanogaster. In this study, we report...

Bideshi D, Park H, Hice R, Wirth M, Federici B
Sci Rep . 2017 Sep; 7(1):11282. PMID: 28900215
Two mosquitocidal bacteria, Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis (Bti) and Lysinibacillus sphaericus (Ls) are the active ingredients of commercial larvicides used widely to control vector mosquitoes. Bti's efficacy is due to...

Colletier J, Sawaya M, Gingery M, Rodriguez J, Cascio D, Brewster A, et al.
Nature . 2016 Sep; 539(7627):43-47. PMID: 27680699
BinAB is a naturally occurring paracrystalline larvicide distributed worldwide to combat the devastating diseases borne by mosquitoes. These crystals are composed of homologous molecules, BinA and BinB, which play distinct...

Park H, Hice R, Federici B
Curr Microbiol . 2015 Sep; 72(1):33-40. PMID: 26395591
Cyt1Aa is a major mosquitocidal protein synthesized during sporulation of Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. israelensis, composing more than 50% of its parasporal body. This high level of synthesis is due to...

Woodard L, Li X, Malani N, Kaja A, Hice R, Atkinson P, et al.
PLoS One . 2012 Nov; 7(11):e42666. PMID: 23166581
Background: Transposons are useful tools for creating transgenic organisms, insertional mutagenesis, and genome engineering. TcBuster, a novel hAT-family transposon system derived from the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, was shown...

Li X, Ewis H, Hice R, Malani N, Parker N, Zhou L, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2012 Oct; 110(6):E478-87. PMID: 23091042
Chromosome structure and function are influenced by transposable elements, which are mobile DNA segments that can move from place to place. hAT elements are a superfamily of DNA cut and...

Arensburger P, Hice R, Wright J, Craig N, Atkinson P
BMC Genomics . 2011 Dec; 12:606. PMID: 22171608
Background: The piRNA pathway has been shown in model organisms to be involved in silencing of transposons thereby providing genome stability. In D. melanogaster the majority of piRNAs map to...
