Bacterial oxidative stress responses are generally controlled by transcription factors that modulate the synthesis of RNAs with the aid of some sRNAs that control the stability, and in some cases the translation, of specific mRNAs.

Evolution: are the monkeys’ typewriters rigged? [PDF]
Evolution is presumed to proceed by random mutations, which increase an individual’s fitness. Increased fitness produces a higher survival rate for those individuals within populations and drives the variants to fixation over large timescales to produce ...

Exploring Differentially Expressed Genes and Immune Modulation in Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma through RNA Sequencing Analysis [PDF]
Background: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is globally recognized as the most prevalent and aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. While conventional treatments are effective initially, the disease can become resistant or relapse over time ...

Solid Phase Assembly of Fully Protected Trinucleotide Building Blocks for Codon-Based Gene Synthesis
The use of pre-formed trinucleotides, representing codons of the 20 canonical amino acids, for oligonucleotide-directed mutagenesis offers the advantage of controlled randomization and generation of “smart libraries”. We here present a method

The Dynamic Codon Biaser: calculating prokaryotic codon usage biases
Bacterial genomes often reflect a bias in the usage of codons. These biases are often most notable within highly expressed genes. While deviations in codon usage can be attributed to selection or mutational biases, they can also be functional, for example controlling gene expression or guiding protein structure.

Identification and characterization of Daldinia eschscholtzii isolated from skin scrapings, nails, and blood [PDF]
Background Daldinia eschscholtzii is a filamentous wood-inhabiting endophyte commonly found in woody plants. Here, we report the identification and characterization of nine D. eschscholtzii isolates from skin scrapings, nail clippings, and blood. Methods
