Developing and evaluating a pollination systems knowledge assessment in a multidisciplinary course

open access: yesInternational Journal of STEM Education, 2022
Background Although pollinators play an integral role in human well-being, their continued global decline reflects the need to provide and evaluate general pollinator knowledge to promote their conservation.

Translation initiation factor eIF3 promotes programmed stop codon readthrough. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Programmed stop codon readthrough is a post-transcription regulatory mechanism specifically increasing proteome diversity by creating a pool of C-terminally extended proteins.

Spatial and temporal variation of the phytoplankton structure in cascading oligotrophic reservoirs of southeast Brazil

open access: yesActa Limnologica Brasiliensia, 2020
: Aim Structural changes in phytoplankton was evaluated in one ultraoligotrophic and two oligotrophic cascading reservoirs during two climatic periods (austral winter and summer) of 2014. Changes in phytoplankton biomass, species composition, and codons

The Dynamic Codon Biaser: calculating prokaryotic codon usage biases

open access: yesMicrobial Genomics, 2021
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.

Codon usage and codon context bias in Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2015
Synonymous codons are used differentially in organisms from the three domains of life, a phenomenon referred to as codon usage bias. In addition, codon pair bias, particularly in the 3' codon context, has also been described in several organisms and is associated with the accuracy and rate of translation. An improved understanding of both types of bias

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Antigenic and immunogenic properties of the canine distemper virus nucleocapsid protein expressed in Escherichia coli employing codon optimized synthetic gene

open access: yesPesquisa Veterinária Brasileira
: Despite common occurrence and importance of canine distemper disease the majority of tests currently available for diagnosis are hampered by either low sensitivity or specificity. In this study it was evaluated antigenic and immunogenic characteristics

Identification and characterization of Daldinia eschscholtzii isolated from skin scrapings, nails, and blood [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2016
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
