Identification of Potential Vaccine Candidates from Rickettsia Species: A Reverse Vaccinology Approach

Nikita Chordia, Shweta Choudhary and Anil Kumar*

Rickettsiosis is a group of diseases caused by many intracellular bacteria of the genus Rickettsia. These bacteria are transmitted by ticks, fleas, lice and mites. The public health impact of rickettsiosis has been suspected to be quite high worldwide. However, there is no specific drug or vaccine available for these diseases. Many doctors recommend the antibiotic, doxycycline for this bacterial infection. Many scientists are engaged in vaccine development. PDF

Kaleem Ullah Kakar1, 3, Raqeeb Ullah5 , Zarqa Nawaz1, 2, 4*, Muhammad Ishtiaq4 , Faizan Ullah4 , Syed Anil Gilani4 , Robina Shaheen4 , Kokab Satti6 and Rizwana Aleem Qureshi

The association of medicinal plants and their therapeutic action is an interested subject which reflects the close relation of genomics and proteomics and DNA sequences among different biological systems. Since the early ancient era, human health and therapy has been supported by plants through the action of certain phyto chemical molecules. Some of these phyto chemical share their therapeutic action in both plants and human, including PDF

Palynological Studies of Genus Draba L. (Brassicaceae) From Pakistan

Kai Wang*

Draba L. is considered taxonomically the most difficult and important genus of family Brassicaceae. Keeping in mind the importance of the taxon, palynological studies of nineteen species of Draba from Pakistan was carried out using light and electron microscopy. Despite nearly half a century of research, the systematic relationships among species in the genus Draba remain unresolved. In this study we analyzed pollen morphology PDF

Review

The New Age, the New Cytogenetics

Kal Renganathan Sharma*

Cytogenomics arises from the integration of classical molecular cytogenetics and the new technologies available to study chromosome biology [1]. The new sequencing technologies, the array-based analysis of genomic diversity, the broader application of chromatin immuno-precipitation, and the use of chromosome conformation capture technologies, have contributed PDF
