The waterlogging tolerance of allotetraploid Actinidia valvata is inherited from one of its diploid progenitors, which leads to subgenome expression dominance, mediated by complex mechanisms including altered chromatin accessibility and DNA methylation.

Distribution of alkB genes within n-alkane-degrading bacteria [PDF]
Fifty-four bacterial strains belonging to 37 species were tested for their ability to assimilate short chain and/or medium chain liquid n-alkanes. A gene probe derived from the alkB gene of Pseudomonas oleovorans ATCC 29347 was utilized in hybridization experiments.

Natural and anthropogenic activities introduce alkanes into marine systems where they are degraded by alkane hydroxylases expressed by phylogenetically diverse bacteria. Partial sequences for alkB, one of the structural genes of alkane hydroxylase, have

Proteomic investigation of enzymes involved in 2-ethylhexyl nitrate biodegradation in Mycobacterium austroafricanum IFP 2173. [PDF]
International audience2-Ethyhexyl nitrate (2-EHN) is a synthetic chemical used as a diesel fuel additive, which is recalcitrant to biodegradation. In this study, the enzymes involved in 2-EHN degradation were investigated in Mycobacterium austroafricanum

Noncanonical Nucleotides in the Genome Around the Maternal‐Zygotic Transition
In this paper, Kazzazi et al. provide a comprehensive review of the dynamics of nonconventional nucleotides in the genome during early developmental stages, hypothesizing a potential role for these nucleotides in the activation of the zygotic genome. ABSTRACT From the very moment of fertilization and throughout development, the cells of animal embryos ...

Phylogenomic identification of five new human homologs of the DNA repair enzyme AlkB
Background Combination of biochemical and bioinformatic analyses led to the discovery of oxidative demethylation – a novel DNA repair mechanism catalyzed by the Escherichia coli AlkB protein and its two human homologs, hABH2 and hABH3. This discovery was

Background and Purpose Intracranial atherosclerosis is one of the most common causes of ischaemic stroke. However, there is a substantial knowledge gap on the development of intracranial atherosclerosis. Intracranial arteries are characterized by an upregulation of tight junctions between endothelial cells, which control endothelial permeability.
