Microbial Species–Area Relationships in Antarctic Cryoconite Holes Depend on Productivity

Microorganisms, 2020
The island species–area relationship (ISAR) is a positive association between the number of species and the area of an isolated, island-like habitat. ISARs are ubiquitous across domains of life, yet the processes generating ISARs remain poorly understood,

Deciphering and engineering the polyunsaturated fatty acid synthase pathway from eukaryotic microorganisms

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are important nutrients that play important roles in human health. In eukaryotes, PUFAs can be de novo synthesized through two independent biosynthetic pathways: the desaturase/elongase pathway and the PUFA synthase ...

Exploring the Role of Macroalgal Surface Metabolites on the Settlement of the Benthic Dinoflagellate Ostreopsis cf. ovata

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Macroalgae constitute one of the preferred substrates of the benthic dinoflagellate Ostreopsis cf. ovata. Across the Mediterranean Sea, this toxic microalga has been shown to thrive on the surface of various species of macroalgae, including Chlorophyta ...

New Material of Carbonaceous Compressions from the ∼1.5 Ga Singhora Group, Chhattisgarh Supergroup, India, and their Interpretation as Benthic Algae

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The origin, antiquity, and affinity of benthic seaweeds (multicellular algae) in the geological past are shrouded in mystery due to their preservation bias.

Deciphering the structure of Arabidopsis thaliana 5-enol-pyruvyl-shikimate-3-phosphate synthase: An essential step toward the discovery of novel inhibitors to supersede glyphosate

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2022
Glyphosate interferes with plant aromatic metabolism through the inhibition of 5-enol-pyruvyl-shikimate-3-phosphate (EPSP) synthase [EPSPS, EC 2.5.1.19]. For this reason, EPSPS has been extensively studied in a vast array of organisms.

Overexpression of miR-10b in colorectal cancer patients: Correlation with and E-cadherin expression

Tumor Biology, 2017
MicroRNAs are emergent players of epigenetics that function as oncogenes or tumor suppressors and that have been implicated in regulating diverse cellular pathways.

Estimating translational selection in Eukaryotic Genomes [PDF]

, 2009
Natural selection on codon usage is a pervasive force that acts on a large variety of prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes. Despite this, obtaining reliable estimates of selection on codon usage has proved complicated, perhaps due to the fact that the ...
