Endonuclease V: From Transcriptome Regulator to Chemical Biology Tool
Post‐transcriptional modifications play a pivotal role in regulating the health and physiology of human cells, and adenosine‐to‐inosine (A‐to‐I) editing is one of the most abundant of these modifications. Inosine is read as guanosine by the cellular machinery, and this change impacts both the regulation and genetic code of RNA, in turn effectively ...

Huntingtin gene evolution in Chordata and its peculiar features in the ascidian
Background To gain insight into the evolutionary features of the huntingtin (htt) gene in Chordata, we have sequenced and characterized the full-length htt mRNA in the ascidian Ciona intestinalis, a basal chordate emerging as new invertebrate model ...

Status of six non-native marine species in the coastal environment of Hong Kong, 30 years after their first record [PDF]
This is the first systematic assessment conducted on fouling communities to determine the current status of six non-native marine invertebrates that were first recorded in Hong Kong three decades ago.

Fraternal cooperation of hierarchical cancer parallels metazoan multicellularity and eusociality
ABSTRACT Metazoan multicellularity and eusociality — both outcomes of the fraternal major transitions — have numerous features in common such as uneven distribution of group‐establishing potential. In addition to this framework, I argue herein that the group‐forming principles of metazoan multicellularity and eusociality are analogous to hierarchical ...

Isolation of a novel LPS-induced component of the ML superfamily in Ciona intestinalis [PDF]
ML superfamily represents a group of proteins playing important roles in lipid metabolism and innate immune response. In this study, we report the identification of the first component of the ML superfamily in the invertebrate Ciona intestinalis by means

The Acrosome Reaction in Ciona intestinalis (Ascidia, Tunicata) [PDF]
An acrosome reaction occurs by fusion between the acrosomal outer membrane and the plasmalemma enclosing the acrosome in Ciona intestinalis spermatozoa. The fusion seems to proceed along the peripheral margin of the acrosome, which causes vesiculation. The membrane bound vesicle formed by this process is probably shed by the sperm.

Recombinant Proteins: A Molecular Tool to Understand Marine Adhesion and to Advance Biomaterials
The production of recombinant proteins represents a fundamental step in the characterisation of marine invertebrate adhesives and in the development of bio‐inspired glues. The association of these proteins with other components such as ions, proteins, polysaccharides, or polymers enables the fabrication of biomaterials for various healthcare ...
