Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Effects of prior contest experience and contest outcome on female reproductive decisions and offspring fitness [PDF]
, 2016 Winning or losing a prior contest can influence the outcome of future contests, but it might also alter subsequent reproductive decisions. For example, losers may increase their investment in the current breeding attempt if losing a contest indicates ...

Increased brood size leads to persistent eroded telomeres
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2014 Costs of reproduction can be divided in mandatory costs coming from physiological, metabolic and anatomical changes required to sustain reproduction itself, and in investment-dependent costs that are likely to become apparent when reproductive efforts ...

Interplay between RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures in gene regulation
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Methodological advances in mapping transcriptome‐wide RNA‐protein interactions and RNA structures have started to uncover the potential of RNP conformations in gene regulation. Competing RNA–RNA, RNA‐protein and protein–protein interactions shape the compaction and function of RNPs throughout their lifetime and may provide novel therapeutic targets in ...

Does foraging efficiency vary with colony size in the fairy martin Petrochelidon ariel? [PDF]
, 2009 Colonial breeding occurs in a wide range of taxa, however the advantages promoting its evolution and maintenance remain poorly understood. In many avian species, breeding colonies vary by several orders of magnitude and one approach to investigating the ...

Altered Dynamic Functional Network Connectivity in Post‐Stroke Aphasia
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Previous studies examining post‐stroke aphasia (PSA) patients via resting‐state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs‐fMRI) have predominantly focused on static functional connectivity. In contrast, the current investigation aims to elucidate the alterations in dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC) among PSA patients ...
