Paroxysmal kinesigenic choreoathetosis (PKC) is a condition characterized by recurrent, brief episodes of involuntary movements that are triggered by sudden voluntary movements. It is the most commonly described type of paroxysmal dyskinesia – a group of movement disorders that manifest… Continue Reading →
The WhiI protein is a crucial molecular player in the intricate process of sporulation within Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2) bacteria. Researchers have conducted a detailed investigation of WhiI and identified its role in this intermediate stage of sporulation. By characterizing WhiI… Continue Reading →
Allergic rhinitis and chronic urticaria are common conditions that many people face. These conditions can be very uncomfortable and affect daily life.
