Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Chromosomal 16S Ribosomal RNA Methyltransferase RmtE1 in Escherichia coli Sequence Type 448
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2017 We identified rmtE1, an uncommon 16S ribosomal methyltransferase gene, in an aminoglycoside- and cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli sequence type 448 clinical strain co-harboring blaCMY-2.

Use of RNA secondary structure for evolutionary relationships : investigating RNase P and RNase MRP : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
, 1998 Bioinformatics is applied here to examine whether RNA secondary structure data can reflect distant evolutionary relationships. This is important when there is little confidence in sequence data such as when looking at the evolution of RNase MRP (MRP ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Association between semen microbiome disorder and sperm DNA damage
Microbiology SpectrumDNA fragmentation index (DFI), a new biomarker to diagnose male infertility, is closely associated with poor reproductive outcomes. Previous research reported that seminal microbiome correlated with sperm DNA integrity, suggesting that the microbiome may

The complete mitochondrial genome of Anas penelope (Anatidae: Anas)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 The complete mitochondrial DNA genome of the Eurasian Wigeon, Anas penelope, was mapped by the next-generation sequencing and Mega 7.0. The circular mitogenome (16,596 bp in length) contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNA genes (12S ribosomal RNA and ...

Optimization of an in vitro transcription/translation system based on Sulfolobus solfataricus cell lysate. [PDF]
, 2018 A system is described which permits the efficient synthesis of proteins in vitro at high temperature. It is based on the use of an unfractionated cell lysate (S30) from Sulfolobus solfataricus previously well characterized in our laboratory for ...

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

16S Ribosomal RNA-Based Analysis of Thermophilic Bacteria in Gedongsongo Hot Spring
Microbiology Indonesia, 2010 Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis was used to identify the bacterial community at the Gedongsongo (WGS-2) hot spring. The bacterial samples were obtained from both culture dependent and independent strategies.
