Two Distinct Thermodynamic Gradients for Cellular Metalation of Vitamin B12 (2023)
Journal Article
Young, T. R., Deery, E., Foster, A. W., Martini, M. A., Osman, D., Warren, M. J., & Robinson, N. J. (2023). Two Distinct Thermodynamic Gradients for Cellular Metalation of Vitamin B12. JACS Au, 3(5), 1264-1534. https://doi.org/10.1021/jacsau.3c00119

The acquisition of CoII by the corrin component of vitamin B12 follows one of two distinct pathways, referred to as early or late CoII insertion. The late insertion pathway exploits a CoII metallochaperone (CobW) from the COG0523 family of G3E GTPase...

Information on movement ecology and susceptibility to fishing gears is becoming increasingly employed in the management of commercial fisheries. This study combined acoustic telemetry (n = 51 and 52) and a simple passive integrated transponder (PIT)... Read More about Acoustic telemetry informs capture susceptibility of an anadromous fish.

Journal Article
Chalmers, C., Fergus, P., Wich, S., Longmore, S., Walsh, N., Stephens, P., Sutherland, C., Matthews, N., Mudde, J., & Nuseibeh, A. (2023). Removing Human Bottlenecks in Bird Classification Using Camera Trap Images and Deep Learning. Remote Sensing, 15(10), Article 2638. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs15102638

Birds are important indicators for monitoring both biodiversity and habitat health; they also play a crucial role in ecosystem management. Declines in bird populations can result in reduced ecosystem services, including seed dispersal, pollination an...

Attenuation of reverse transcriptase facilitates SAMHD1 restriction of HIV-1 in cycling cells (2023)
Journal Article
Tsai, M.-H. C., Caswell, S. J., Morris, E. R., Mann, M. C., Pennell, S., Kelly, G., Groom, H. C., Taylor, I. A., & Bishop, K. N. (2023). Attenuation of reverse transcriptase facilitates SAMHD1 restriction of HIV-1 in cycling cells. Retrovirology, 20(1), Article 5. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12977-023-00620-z

SAMHD1 is a deoxynucleotide triphosphohydrolase that restricts replication of HIV-1 in differentiated leucocytes. HIV-1 is not restricted in cycling cells and it has been proposed that this is due to phosphorylation of SAMHD1 at T592 in these cells i...

Histamine receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1 (2023)
Journal Article
Chazot, P., Cowart, M., Fukui, H., Ganellin, C. R., Gutzmer, R., Haas, H. L., …Young, J. M. (2023). Histamine receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1. IUPHAR/BPS Guide to Pharmacology CITE, 2023(1), https://doi.org/10.2218/gtopdb/f33/2023.1

Histamine receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR Subcommittee on Histamine Receptors [80, 174]) are activated by the endogenous ligand histamine. Marked species differences exist between histamine receptor orthologues [80]. The human and... Read More about Histamine receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1.

Interspecific territoriality has facilitated recent increases in the breeding habitat overlap of North American passerines (2023)
Journal Article
Nesbit, D., Cowen, M., Grether, G., & Drury, J. (2023). Interspecific territoriality has facilitated recent increases in the breeding habitat overlap of North American passerines. Ecography, 2023(6), Article e06573. https://doi.org/10.1111/ecog.06573

As species’ ranges shift in response to human-induced global changes, species interactions are expected to play a large role in shaping the resultant range dynamics and, subsequently, the composition of modified species assemblages. Most research on... Read More about Interspecific territoriality has facilitated recent increases in the breeding habitat overlap of North American passerines.

Estimating mesocarnivore abundance on commercial farmland using distance sampling with camera traps (2023)
Journal Article

1. Mesocarnivores are of particular interest in wildlife management. Their adaptability makes them a focus of public attention globally, as negative interactions with people occur regularly, but their importance to wider ecosystem function is increas...

Trait evolution during a rapid global weed invasion despite little genetic differentiation (2023)
Journal Article
Irimia, R. E., Montesinos, D., Chaturvedi, A., Sanders, I., Hierro, J. L., Sotes, G., Cavieres, L. A., Eren, Ö., Lortie, C. J., French, K., & Brennan, A. C. (2023). Trait evolution during a rapid global weed invasion despite little genetic differentiation. Evolutionary Applications, 16(5), 997-1011. https://doi.org/10.1111/eva.13548

Invasive species often possess a great capacity to adapt to novel environments in the form of spatial trait variation, as a result of varying selection regimes, genetic drift, or plasticity. We explored the geographic differentiation in several pheno... Read More about Trait evolution during a rapid global weed invasion despite little genetic differentiation.

Factors affecting bait uptake by the grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) and the future delivery of oral contraceptives (2023)
Journal Article
