The DEAD-Box RNA Helicases of Bacillus subtilis as a Model to Evaluate Genetic Compensation Among Duplicate Genes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The presence of duplicated genes in organisms is well documented. There is increasing interest in understanding how these genes subfunctionalize and whether functional overlap can explain the fact that some of these genes are dispensable.

The genetic architecture of leaf vein density and its importance for photosynthesis in maize

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Vein types in maize leaves. Summary Leaf venation density has significantly increased during plant evolution. Higher densities are observed in angiosperms compared with early land plants, and among angiosperms, recently diverged C4 species have the highest values.

Negative Regulators of Rice Agronomic Traits: Functional Insights and Applications in Genome Editing‐Based Breeding

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...

Role of DEAD/DEAH-box helicases in immunity, infection and cancers

Cell Communication and Signaling
DEAD/DEAH-box helicases (DDX) are integral RNA-binding proteins within the RNA helicase superfamily 2 (SF2), characterized by distinct DEAD (Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp) and DEAH (Asp-Glu-Ala-His) motifs.

Post‐Translational Control of TaFT1 by WAPO1 Ubiquitination Shapes Spike Architecture and Yield in Wheat

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The florigen protein TaFT1 coordinately regulates heading time and spikelet number per spike (SNS), serving as a key yield determinant in wheat. However, how its stability is post‐translationally controlled in the shoot apical meristem remains unclear.

Transcript correlation analysis for the identification of novel plant genes involved in iron metabolism and beyond: what next?

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Transcript correlation analysis allowed the identification of several key nodes in the complex regulatory network of plant iron metabolism. Abstract Arabidopsis thaliana was the first plant genome to be fully sequenced, almost a quarter of a century ago, thanks to The Arabidopsis Genome Initiative, with contributions from scientists worldwide.

Understanding exosomes in regenerative dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Regenerative dentistry is shifting from cell‐based strategies to cell‐free biologics capable of orchestrating intricate tissue repair. Exosomes, nanosized extracellular vesicles carrying bioactive molecular payloads, have emerged as central modulators of intercellular communication.

DDX1 is required for non-spliceosomal splicing of tRNAs but not of XBP1 mRNA

Communications Biology
RNA helicase DEAD-box helicase 1 (DDX1) forms a complex with the RNA ligase 2´,3´-cyclic phosphate and 5´-OH ligase (RTCB), which plays a vital role in non-spliceosomal splicing of tRNA and X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) mRNA.

Acute capillary blood DNA methylation responses to swimming exercise in high‐performance male and female swimmers

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Epigenetic markers, particularly DNA methylation, are promising tools for monitoring athlete health and training due to their role in cellular regulation, exercise responsiveness and molecular stability. However, exercise‐induced epigenetic changes in peripheral blood in trained individuals remain unexplored.

DDX21 Promotes Breast Cancer Growth and Metastasis via Stimulating RNAPII Elongation During Hypoxia

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2026.
DDX21 triggers CDK9 release from the 7SK RNP complex. DDX21‐CDK9 binding to HIFs drives transcriptional reprogramming during hypoxia. DDX21 enhances breast cancer progression and metastasis. Elevated DDX21 expression correlates with poor prognosis in breast cancer patients.
