PHLEBOTOMUS SERGENTI IN A CUTANEOUS LEISHMANIASIS FOCUS IN AZILAL PROVINCE (HIGH ATLAS, MOROCCO): MOLECULAR DETECTION AND GENOTYPING OF LEISHMANIA TROPICA, AND FEEDING BEHAVIOR.

Phlebotomus sergenti in a cutaneous leishmaniasis focus in Azilal province (High Atlas, Morocco): molecular detection and genotyping of Leishmania tropica, and feeding behavior.

BACKGROUND:Phlebotomus (Paraphlebotomus) sergenti is at least one of the confirmed vectors for the transmission of cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by Leishmania tropica and distributed widely in Morocco.This form of leishmaniasis is considered largely as anthroponotic, although dogs were found infected with Leishmania tropica, suggestive of zoonosis

Short linear motif acquisition, exon formation and alternative splicing determine a pathway to diversity for NCoR-family co-repressors

Vertebrate NCoR-family co-repressors play central roles in Binoculars the timing of embryo and stem cell differentiation by repressing the activity of a range of transcription factors.They interact with nuclear receptors using short linear motifs (SLiMs) termed co-repressor for nuclear receptor (CoRNR) boxes.Here, we identify the pathway leading to
