Unraveling Mycobacterium tuberculosis acid resistance and pH homeostasis mechanisms

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibits a remarkable resilience to acid stress. In this Review, we discuss some of the molecular mechanisms and metabolic pathways used by the tubercle bacilli to adapt and resist host‐mediated acid stress. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) is a successful pathogen that has developed a variety of strategies to survive and ...

Natural crossing and isolation distance between cotton genotypes in turkey Cruzamento natural e distância de isolamento entre genótipos de algodão na turquia

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2008
The purposes of this study were to determine the percentage of out-crossing, isolation distance and pollinator insect species for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seed production in the Aydin region in Turkey.

Sex without crossing over in the yeast Saccharomycodes ludwigii

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
Background Intermixing of genomes through meiotic reassortment and recombination of homologous chromosomes is a unifying theme of sexual reproduction in eukaryotic organisms and is considered crucial for their adaptive evolution.

The solution supramolecular structure of α2 → 8 polysialic acid suggests a structural cause for its low immunogenicity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...

Patterns of Genetic Variability in Genomic Regions with Low Rates of Recombination

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
Surveys of DNA sequence variation have shown that the level of genetic variability in a genomic region is often strongly positively correlated with its rate of crossing over (CO) [1–3].

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Comparison of mobile robot positioning techniques

open access: yesTekhnologiya i Konstruirovanie v Elektronnoi Apparature, 2021
The article compares the accuracy of mobile robot positioning by the technique based on genetic algorithms, which are related to artificial intelligence, and by the trilateration technique.

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

The role of plastid genes in a heterosis effect and the formation of morphophysiological traits in sunflower plants

open access: yesТруды по прикладной ботанике, генетике и селекции, 2020
Background. The problem of nucleus-plastid interactions is obviously of theoretical and practical importance. However, the lack of knowledge in this area of plant research is, for the most part, caused by difficulties in isolating the contribution of the

Automatic Routing of Goldstone Diagrams using Genetic Algorithms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This paper presents an algorithm for an automatic transformation (=routing) of time ordered topologies of Goldstone diagrams (i.e. Wick contractions) into graphical representations of these topologies. Since there is no hard criterion for an optimal routing, the proposed algorithm minimizes an empirically chosen cost function over a set of parameters ...
