DENGUE VIRUS IN AEDES AEGYPTI AND AEDES ALBOPICTUS IN URBAN AREAS IN THE STATE OF RIO GRANDE DO NORTE, BRAZIL: IMPORTANCE OF VIROLOGICAL AND ENTOMOLOGICAL SURVEILLANCE.

Dengue virus in Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus in urban areas in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil: Importance of virological and entomological surveillance.

Vector control remains the sole effective method to prevent dengue virus (DENV) transmission, although a vaccine for dengue has recently become available and testing of its efficacy and coverage is being performed in multiple places.Entomological surveillance is a key factor in alerting authorities to possible outbreaks, but until now natural DENV

Formation of NifA-PII complex represses ammonium-sensitive nitrogen fixation in diazotrophic proteobacteria lacking NifL

Summary: Biological nitrogen fixation catalyzed by nitrogenase contributes greatly to the global nitrogen cycle.Nitrogenase expression is subject to regulation in response to nitrogen availability.However, the mechanism through which the transcriptional activator NifA regulates nitrogenase expression by interacting with PII Sculpture nitrogen regul
