The sheep genome illuminates biology of the rumen and lipid metabolism
Sheep (Ovis aries) are a major source of meat, milk, and fiber in the form of wool and represent
a distinct class of animals that have a specialized digestive organ, the rumen, that carries …

Ex Vivo Profiling of CD8+-T-Cell Responses to Human Cytomegalovirus Reveals Broad and Multispecific Reactivities in Healthy Virus Carriers
R Elkington, S Walker, T Crough, M Menzies… - Journal of …, 2003 - Am Soc Microbiol
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can establish both nonproductive (latent) and productive (lytic)
infections. Many of the proteins expressed during these phases of infection could be …

Identification and expression of Toll-like receptors 1–10 in selected bovine and ovine tissues
Members of the Toll-like receptor (TLR) family are vital to immune function through the sensing
of pathogenic agents and initiation of an appropriate immune response. More specifically, …

Gastrointestinal nematode challenge induces some conserved gene expression changes in the gut mucosa of genetically resistant sheep
Sheep have a varying ability to resist infection with gastrointestinal nematodes. This ability
is due in part to genetic differences that exist between individuals. In order to define these …

Identification of a Dieldrin Resistance-Associated Mutation in Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus (Acari: Ixodidae)
M Hope, M Menzies, D Kemp - Journal of economic entomology, 2010 - academic.oup.com
The southern cattle tick, Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus (Canestrini) (Acari: Ixodidae),
is a major vector of tick fever organisms affecting cattle in many parts of the world, including …

Proteomic analysis of the abomasal mucosal response following infection by the nematode, Haemonchus contortus, in genetically resistant and susceptible sheep
Sheep have a variable ability to resist gastrointestinal nematode infection, but the key factors
mediating this response are poorly defined. Here we report the first large-scale application …

[HTML][HTML] Leveraging transcriptome and epigenome landscapes to infer regulatory networks during the onset of sexual maturation
Background Despite sexual development being ubiquitous to vertebrates, the molecular
mechanisms underpinning this fundamental transition remain largely undocumented in many …

Gene expression profiles of BMP4, FGF10 and cognate inhibitors, in the skin of foetal Merino sheep, at the time of secondary follicle branching
M Menzies, S Stockwell, A Brownlee… - Experimental …, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
The high concentration of secondary branched follicles is a distinctive feature of the Merino
sheep. These follicles initiate from 100 days of gestation. Here, we report a transition in …

A novel antigen from Anaplasma marginale: characterization, expression and preliminary evaluation of the recombinant protein
M Hope, G Riding, M Menzies, P Willadsen - Vaccine, 2004 - Elsevier
Through a process of protein fractionation and vaccination we previously identified four native
antigens that confer a degree of protection against challenge with Anaplasma marginale. …
