Comparative Analyses of Potato Expressed Sequence Tag Libraries [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2003 Abstract The cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum) shares similar biology with other members of the Solanaceae, yet has features unique within the family, such as modified stems (stolons) that develop into edible tubers. To better understand potato biology, we have undertaken a survey of the potato transcriptome using expressed ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Computational identification of Penaeus monodon microRNA genes and their targets [PDF]
Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2013 MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a distinct class of small non-coding RNAs, ~22 nt long, found in a wide variety of organisms.They play important regulatory roles by silencing gene activities at the post-transcriptional level.

Germin and germin-like proteins: evolution, structure, and function [PDF]
, 2008 Germin and germin-like proteins (GLPs) are encoded by a family of genes found in all plants. They are part of the cupin superfamily of biochemically diverse proteins, a superfamily that has a conserved tertiary structure, though with limited similarity ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

An in silico analysis of the key genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis in Citrus sinensis
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2007 Citrus species are known by their high content of phenolic compounds, including a wide range of flavonoids. In plants, these compounds are involved in protection against biotic and abiotic stresses, cell structure, UV protection, attraction of ...

Towards a bioinformatics platform for the Musa research community : [Abstract W076] [PDF]
, 2010 Current experiments in genomics produce a large amount of data that needs to be organized into databases and broadly accessible. Like other species, the Musa genomics community would benefit from centralized and innovative ways to study its genome.

A formal proof of the optimal frame setting for Dynamic-Frame Aloha with known population size [PDF]
, 2013 In Dynamic-Frame Aloha subsequent frame lengths must be optimally chosen to maximize throughput. When the initial population size ${\cal N}$ is known, numerical evaluations show that the maximum efficiency is achieved by setting the frame length equal to
