The transcriptome of Icerya aegyptiaca (Hemiptera: Monophlebidae) and comparison with neococcoids reveal genetic clues of evolution in the scale insects

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background Scale insects are worldwide sap-sucking parasites, which can be distinguished into neococcoids and non-neococcoids. Neococcoids are monophyletic with a peculiar reproductive system, paternal genome elimination (PGE). Different with neococcoids,

The SNPs in myoD gene from normal muscle developing individuals have no effect on muscle mass

open access: yesBMC Genetics, 2019
Background Myogenic Differentiation 1 (MyoD) is a crucial master switch in regulating muscle-specific gene transcription. Forced expression of myoD is equipped to induce several cell lineages into myoblast, which then differentiate and fuse into myotube.

Baculovirus infection induces disruption of the nuclear lamina

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Baculovirus nucleocapsids egress from the nucleus primarily via budding at the nuclear membrane. The nuclear lamina underlying the nuclear membrane represents a substantial barrier to nuclear egress. Whether the nuclear lamina undergoes disruption during

An integrated analysis revealed different microRNA-mRNA profiles during skeletal muscle development between Landrace and Lantang pigs

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Pigs supply vital dietary proteins for human consumption, and their economic value depends largely on muscle production. MicroRNAs are known to play important roles in skeletal muscle development. However, their relationship to distinct muscle production

Highly efficient correction of structural mutations of 450 kb KIT locus in kidney cells of Yorkshire pig by CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesBMC Molecular and Cell Biology, 2019
The white coat colour of Yorkshire and Landrace pig breeds is caused by the dominant white I allele of KIT, associated with 450-kb duplications and a splice mutation (G > A) at the first base in intron 17.

Significant changes in soil microbial community structure and metabolic function after Mikania micrantha invasion

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Currently, Mikania micrantha (M. micrantha) has invaded Guangdong, Guangxi and other provinces in China, causing serious harm to the forests of southeastern China. Soil microorganisms play an important role in the establishment of M.

Targeted integration in human cells through single crossover mediated by ZFN or CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesBMC Biotechnology, 2018
Background Targeted DNA integration is widely used in basic research and commercial applications because it eliminates positional effects on transgene expression.

Total genetic contribution assessment across the human genome

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Quantifying the effects of individual loci on the human phenome is a challenging task. Here, the authors introduce a modelling technique, TGCA, that assesses total genetic contribution per locus and apply this to UK Biobank phenotype domains, revealing ...

The response to cabbage looper infestation in Arabidopsis is altered by lowering levels of Zat18 a Q-type C2H2 zinc finger protein

open access: yesJournal of Plant Interactions, 2022
Q-type C2H2 zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) play a role in plant stress response. Overexpression of individual ZFPs enhances tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought or salt.
