The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Insights into comparative genomics, structural features, and phylogenetic relationship of species from Eurasian Aster and its related genera (Asteraceae: Astereae) based on complete chloroplast genome

Frontiers in Plant Science
Aster L. is an economically and phylogenetically important genus in the tribe Astereae. Here, the complete plastomes of the eight Aster species were assembled and characterized using next-generation sequencing datasets. The results indicated the complete

The Great Divergence Reconsidered: Or, Is it Time to Reconsider the Great Divergence Debate? [PDF]

International Journal for History, Culture and Modernity, 2019
Twenty years ago, Kenneth Pomeranz’s The Great Divergence (2000) reshaped debates over the historical causes of Europe’s rapid nineteenthcentury industrialization and economic growth. By comparing the Yangzi Delta region of China to Britain, Pomeranz asserted that Europe was not exceptionally dynamic before the nineteenth century and that its ...

Divergence Between Parametric Income Distributions

Situations often arise in which we are interested in measuring divergence between distributions over time or across regions. This paper proposes an entropy measure of divergence and derives analytical expressions for several parametric distributions ...

Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Plastid phylogenomics illuminates backbone relationships, divergence times and character evolution in Caryophyllaceae

BMC Plant Biology
Background The family Caryophyllaceae has traditionally been divided into three subfamilies (i.e. Alsinoideae, Caryophylloideae, Paronychioideae). However, the monophyly of each subfamily has been challenged, while boundaries, phylogenetic relationships,

A Phylogenetic Analysis Based on Whole Genome Re-Sequencing of 41 Dendrobium Species

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
The genus Dendrobium (Orchidaceae) is highly renowned for its great medicinal and ornamental values. However, due to morphological similarities among closely related taxa within this genus, certain species are frequently subject to misidentification and ...

Explaining the Rent-OER Inflation Divergence, 1999-2006 [PDF]

Between 1999 and 2006, there were two episodes during which inflation in the Rent index in the CPI diverged markedly from inflation in the index for Owner’s Equivalent Rent (OER); early in 2007, these series began to diverge again.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.
