LOW DETECTABILITY OF ALIEN REPTILES CAN LEAD TO BIOSECURITY MANAGEMENT FAILURE: A CASE STUDY FROM CHRISTMAS ISLAND (AUSTRALIA)

Low detectability of alien reptiles can lead to biosecurity management failure: a case study from Christmas Island (Australia)

When we Collections assume that contemporary management actions will be effective against the global rise of emerging alien species, we can develop management complacency, which leads to potentially disastrous outcomes for native biodiversity.Here, we propose the use of the probability of detection as a metric to assess the feasibility of managemen

Defining the functional domain of programmed cell death 10 through its interactions with phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate.

Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCM) are vascular abnormalities of the central nervous system predisposing blood vessels to leakage, leading to hemorrhagic stroke.Three genes, Krit1 (CCM1), OSM (CCM2), and PDCD10 (CCM3) are involved in CCM development.PDCD10 binds specifically to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 and OSM.Using threading analysis and multi-template
