Plants, 2020 Brown planthopper (BPH; Nilaparvata lugens Stal) is considered the main rice insect pest in Asia. Several BPH-resistant varieties of rice have been bred previously and released for large-scale production in various rice-growing regions.

Insertion of the FeB cofactor in cNORs lacking metal inserting chaperones
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nitric oxide reductase is an enzyme found in the bacterial denitrification pathway. The NOR active site contains a non‐heme iron, often, but not always inserted with the assistance of chaperones. Here, we study the insertion of FeB in the subfamily of cNORs lacking chaperones and found a putative channel, conserved in the family, perhaps enabling the ...

Gene-gene cooperativity in small networks [PDF]
, 2008 We show how to construct a reduced description of interacting genes in noisy, small regulatory networks using coupled binary "spin" variables. Treating both the protein number and gene expression state variables stochastically and on equal footing we propose a mapping which connects the molecular level description of networks to the binary ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.LHCPs are transported to the thylakoid membrane via the (cp)SRP pathway. This process involves a transit complex of (cp)SRP43, (cp)SRP54 and LHCP, which interacts with (cp)FtsY and Alb3 at the membrane. GTP hydrolysis by (cp)SRP54 and (cp)FtsY triggers complex dissociation.

Asymmetric latent semantic indexing for gene expression experiments visualization [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We propose a new method to visualize gene expression experiments inspired by the latent semantic indexing, technique originally proposed in the textual analysis context. By using the correspondence word-gene document-experiment, we define an asymmetric similarity measure of association for genes that accounts for potential hierarchies in the data, the ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The NlpC_P60 superfamily of peptidases is recognised by its key role in bacterial cell wall homeostasis. Recently, studies have also described the involvement of NlpC_P60‐like enzymes in bacterial competitive mechanisms and pathogenesis across several lineages.

eQTL mapping and inherited risk enrichment analysis : a systems biology approach for coronary artery disease [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 Despite extensive research during the last decades, coronary artery disease (CAD) remains the number one cause of death, responsible for near 50% of global mortality. A main reason for this is that CAD has a complex inheritance and etiology that unlike rare single gene disorders cannot fully be understood from studies of of genes one-by-one.In parallel,

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

ILAR Journal, 1998 The wild type red fox is common to Europe, Asia, North Africa, and North America. Furthermore, it has accommodated itself so well in Australia, where it was taken from England, that it has spread over the entire continent. It adapts easily to different climates and biocoenoses—in the open; in the forest, highland or lowland; on the coast; or inland. In
