Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Sarah E Pye"
Sarah E Pye's research encompasses viral surveillance in small mammals, particularly focusing on the detection and genomic characterization of novel paramyxoviruses in the rodent species Micromys minutus in South Korea, highlighting the zoonotic risks associated with rodent populations.
She has conducted comparative studies on allergenic profilins, revealing insights into their structural and thermal stability, which may contribute to understanding the immunological responses in a significant portion of the global population suffering from allergies.
Pye's work also addresses the urgent public health challenge posed by Neisseria gonorrhoeae, investigating the structure of 4-hydroxy-tetrahydrodipicolinate reductase to identify potential alternative drug targets in response to rising antibiotic resistance.
