The Role of Peroxiredoxins in Cancer Development

Biology, 2023
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) are antioxidant enzymes with ubiquitous expression in human tissues. Prxs are expressed in archaea, bacteria, and eukaryota, often in multiple isoforms.

An evolutionary perspective on the kinome of malaria parasites [PDF]

, 2012
Malaria parasites belong to an ancient lineage that diverged very early from the main branch of eukaryotes. The approximately 90-member plasmodial kinome includes a majority of eukaryotic protein kinases that clearly cluster within the AGC, CMGC, TKL ...

Massive Horizontal Gene Transfer in Bdelloid Rotifers [PDF]

, 2008
Horizontal gene transfer in metazoans has been documented in only a few species and is usually associated with endosymbiosis or parasitism. By contrast, in bdelloid rotifers we found many genes that appear to have originated in bacteria, fungi, and ...

The large-scale organization of metabolic networks [PDF]

, 2000
In a cell or microorganism the processes that generate mass, energy, information transfer, and cell fate specification are seamlessly integrated through a complex network of various cellular constituents and reactions. However, despite the key role these

Distinctive metabolic disturbances associated with redox homeostasis, nervous and hormonal functions during gut microbial enrichment upon polystyrene microplastic exposure

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
Microplastic‐induced gut microbial enrichment was dominated by bacteria within Eubacteriales, correlated with the virome, and accompanied by colitis. The polyamine synthetic pathway was activated to maintain glutathionylspermidine homeostasis, concurrent with decreases in pathways involved in the production of energy and reactive oxygen species under ...

Chrysophanol: A Natural Anthraquinone with Multifaceted Biotherapeutic Potential

Biomolecules, 2019
Chrysophanol is a unique anthraquinone having broad-spectrum therapeutic potential along with ecological importance. It is the first polyketide that has been reported to be biosynthesized in an organism-specific manner. The traditional Chinese and Korean

Tree species and soil depth affect microbial necromass contribution to soil organic matter in temperate forest soils, surpassing the impact of microbial and faunal community composition

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Forest management and climate change inevitably lead to shifts in the composition of temperate forest stands from coniferous to deciduous species, potentially affecting the crucial role of forest soil organic carbon (SOC) stocks in mitigating climate change.

Co-Inheritance Analysis within the Domains of Life Substantially Improves Network Inference by Phylogenetic Profiling.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Phylogenetic profiling, a network inference method based on gene inheritance profiles, has been widely used to construct functional gene networks in microbes. However, its utility for network inference in higher eukaryotes has been limited.
