Color diversity of land hermit crabs in Karang Hawu Beach, Pelabuhan Ratu Bay, West Java [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
Land hermit crabs (Coenobita spp.) are infraorder anomuran crustaceans that have an important role in coastal ecosystems, especially as decomposers and environmental bioindicators.

Molecular characterization of covRS mutations in M1UK Streptococcus pyogenes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Group A Streptococcus (GAS) acquires covRS mutations driving a hypervirulent bacterial state, frequently associated with invasive disease‐like necrotizing fasciitis. We demonstrate that the newly emerged M1UK GAS lineage can also acquire these mutations.

Sequence variation in the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) pigmentation gene and its role in the cryptic coloration of two South American sand lizards

Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2012
In reptiles, dorsal body darkness often varies with substrate color or temperature environment, and is generally presumed to be an adaptation for crypsis or thermoregulation. However, the genetic basis of pigmentation is poorly known in this group.

Effects of Photoperiod on Survival, Growth, Physiological, and Biochemical Indices of Redclaw Crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus) Juveniles

Animals
Through a 30-day experiment, this study investigated the effects of five photoperiods (0L:24D, 6L:18D, 12L:12D, 18L:6D, and 24L:0D) on the survival, enzyme activity, body color, and growth-related gene expression of redclaw crayfish (Cherax ...

Treatment with KCL‐286, a first‐in‐class retinoic acid receptor‐β (RARβ) agonist, ameliorates neuronal DNA damage and inflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Repair of neuronal DNA damage in Alzheimer's disease by KCL‐286. (A) Amyloid‐β oligomers and plaques impair neuronal DNA repair pathways, leading to DNA double‐strand breaks and glial activation. (B) KCL‐286 activates RARβ/RXR signalling via retinoic acid response elements (RAREs), associated with increased BRCA1 expression, enhanced DNA repair and ...

Water body detection from TanDEM-X data: concept and first evaluation of an accurate water indication mask [PDF]

, 2011
Additionally to the global DEM which is the main product of the TanDEM-X mission a global water body mask will be produced. The main goal of this water mask is to deliver an information layer for any subsequent DEM editing process. It is derived from the

Astaxanthin is not indispensable for crustaceans: carotenoid differences and metabolic mechanisms of crayfish (Procambarus clarkii) with different carapace colors

Frontiers in Marine Science
IntroductionProcambarus clarkii is an important economic aquatic species, and body color is an important economic trait. However, studies on the regulation of body color in crayfish remains limited.MethodsWe conducted an integrated transcriptomic and ...

Weight as a driver of ontogenetic color pattern shift in the King Ratsnake Elaphe carinata carinata (Günther, 1864) (Reptilia, Serpentes, Colubridae) [PDF]

ZooKeys
In many snakes, the color pattern of neonates differs from that of adults, often superficially resembling a separate species. This phenomenon is known as ontogenetic color pattern shift.

Importin 7 mediates the nuclear import of HIV‐1 integrase via a specific interacting interface

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HIV‐1 integrase enables viral DNA integration into the host genome. By binding to the core domain of the host protein Importin 7 via its C‐terminal domain, the integrase is transported across the nuclear membrane into the nucleus, where integration of the viral genome into host DNA takes place. This translocation is a critical step for subsequent viral
