CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutation of tyrosinase (Tyr) 3′ UTR induce graying in rabbit
Scientific Reports, 2017 The 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs), located at the end of mRNA molecules, are believed to play a role in RNA replication and/or protein translation. Mutations in the tyrosinase (Tyr) gene are known to cause recessive albinism in humans and other species.

Semen quality and fertility effectiveness of cloned buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) bulls
Revista Científica, 2023 In India, due to a severe shortage of elite bulls, semen available from progeny-tested bulls covers a limited breedable population of buffalo. Animal cloning has proved beneficial in making identical genetic copies in the shortest possible time to meet ...

Eccentricity excitation and merging of planetary embryos heated by pebble accretion [PDF]
A&A 606, A114 (2017), 2017 Context: Planetary embryos can continue to grow by pebble accretion until they become giant planet cores. Simultaneously, these embryos mutually interact and also migrate due to torques arising from the protoplanetary disk. Aims: Our aim is to investigate how pebble accretion alters the orbital evolution of embryos undergoing the Type-I migration. In

IGF1-mediated human embryonic stem cell self-renewal recapitulates the embryonic niche
Nature Communications, 2020 The signals regulating the establishment and maintenance of the pluripotent epiblast in human embryos are unclear. Here, the authors use a bioinformatics approach to identify the role of IGF1 in human embryo development, and from this, propose a culture ...
