A fast method for analyzing essential protein mutants in human cells
Here we developed a complementation method for the study of essential genes in live human cells using the CRISPR/Cas9 system. Proteins encoded by essential genes were expressed using a derivative of the pCEP4 compensating plasmid in combination with Cas9

Comparative metagenomic analysis reveals mechanisms for stress response in hypoliths from extreme hyperarid deserts [PDF]
Understanding microbial adaptation to environmental stressors is crucial for interpreting broader ecological patterns. In the most extreme hot and cold deserts, cryptic niche communities are thought to play key roles in ecosystem processes and represent ...

Warm stratification improves embryos development and seed germination of Cycas revoluta
The broad objective of this research is to study the effect of warm stratification on Cycas revoluta zygotic embryos length, seed germination and plant development. Four warm treatments were applied to seeds. Our results showed that seeds storage at room

Biotechnologie-Gründungen im Ruhrgebiet: Eine vergleichende Analyse [PDF]
Auch im Ruhrgebiet sind Anzeichen einer regionalen Häufung von Biotechnologie-Gründern zu beobachten. In qualitativer Hinsicht ist das Ruhrgebiet wenig attraktiv für Gründer aus anderen Regionen und solchen mit hohem Innovationspotenzial.

Peroxidasin enables melanoma immune escape by inhibiting natural killer cell cytotoxicity
Peroxidasin (PXDN) is secreted by melanoma cells and binds the NK cell receptor NKG2D, thereby suppressing NK cell activation and cytotoxicity. PXDN depletion restores NKG2D signaling and enables effective NK cell–mediated melanoma killing. These findings identify PXDN as a previously unrecognized immune evasion factor and a potential target to improve

Over-expression of a chimeric gene of the transcriptional co-activator MBF1 fused to the EAR repressor motif causes developmental alteration in Arabidopsis and tomato [PDF]
Transcriptional co-activators of the Multiprotein Bridging Factor1 (MBF1) type belong to a multigenic family that encode key components of the machinery controlling gene expression by communicating between transcription factors and the basal ...

A novel erythropoietin (EPO) promoter mutation (c.‐136 G>A) causes autosomal dominant erythrocytosis via non‐renal expression of EPO. ABSTRACT We previously reported a five‐generation kindred with autosomal dominant erythrocytosis associated with a novel germline promoter variant in the erythropoietin (EPO) gene (EPO c.‐136 G>A).
