Local environment modulates whole-transcriptome expression in the seagrass Posidonia oceanica under warming and nutrients excess [PDF]
The intensification of anomalous events of seawater warming and the co-occurrence with local anthropogenic stressors are threatening coastal marine habitats, including seagrasses, which form extensive underwater meadows.

Modes of hydrocarbon oil biosynthesis revealed by comparative gene expression analysis for race A and race B strains of Botryococcus braunii [PDF]
To clarify the oil biosynthetic routes of the oil-producing green alga Botryococcus braunii, here the race-specific gene expression patterns were examined using representative strains of race A and race B producing fatty acid- and triterpene-derived ...

Valproate induces the unfolded protein response by increasing ceramide levels [PDF]
Bipolar disorder (BD), which is characterized by depression and mania, affects 1–2% of the world population. Current treatments are effective in only 40–60% of cases and cause severe side effects.

Transcriptome analysis of the pulp of citrus fruitlets suggests that domestication enhanced growth processes and reduced chemical defenses increasing palatability [PDF]
To identify key traits brought about by citrus domestication, we have analyzed the transcriptomes of the pulp of developing fruitlets of inedible wild Ichang papeda (Citrus ichangensis), acidic Sun Chu Sha Kat mandarin (C. reticulata) and three palatable

Network design and analysis for multi-enzyme biocatalysis [PDF]
In vitro synthesis is a biotechnological alternative to classic chemical catalysts. However, the manual design of multi-step biosynthesis routes is very challenging, especially when enzymes from different organisms are involved.

Phlebia radiata as an ethanol producing fungus : conversion of lignocelluloses and metabolic regulation under hypoxia [PDF]
White rot Basidiomycota can decompose all wood components in nature and are therefore essential in recycling carbon in our forests and ecosystems. These fungi are filamentous organisms that reside on top of trunks and elongate their hyphae inside wood ...
