The role of aspartic acid in reducing coral calcification under ocean acidification conditions
Biomolecules play key roles in regulating the precipitation of CaCO3 biominerals but their response to ocean acidification is poorly understood. We analysed the skeletal intracrystalline amino acids of massive, tropical Porites spp.

Replication of Plasmodium in reticulocytes can occur without hemozoin formation, resulting in chloroquine resistance [PDF]
Most studies on malaria-parasite digestion of hemoglobin (Hb) have been performed using P. falciparum maintained in mature erythrocytes, in vitro. In this study, we examine Plasmodium Hb degradation in vivo in mice, using the parasite P.

Cathepsin B carboxydipeptidase specificity analysis using internally quenched fluorescent peptides [PDF]
We have examined in detail the specificity of the subsites S-1, S-2, S-1' and S-2' for the carboxydipeptidase activity of cathepsin B by synthesizing and assaying four series of internally quenched fluorescent peptides based on the sequence Dnp-GFRFW-OH,

Regulation of seed germination in the close Arabidopsis relative Lepidium sativum : a global tissue-specific transcript analysis [PDF]
The completion of germination in Lepidium sativum and other endospermic seeds (e.g. Arabidopsis [Arabidopsis thaliana]) is regulated by two opposing forces, the growth potential of the radicle (RAD) and the resistance to this growth from the micropylar ...

Targets and strategies to design soybean seed composition traits
Abstract Breeders and geneticists have put great effort into enhancing soybean seed composition and developing elite varieties with desired traits. However, diverse end‐uses and changing consumer preferences present new challenges and opportunities to develop desired compositional profiles for the market.
