Tau acetylation at K331 has limited impact on tau pathology in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We mapped tau post‐translational modifications in humanized MAPT knock‐in mice and in amyloid‐bearing double knock‐in mice. Acetylation within the repeat domain, particularly around K331, showed modest increases under amyloid pathology. To test functional relevance, we generated MAPTK331Q knock‐in mice.

Disease Gene Mapping in General Pedigrees

open access: yes, 2005
Disease gene mapping is one of the main focuses of genetic epidemiology and statistical genetics. This dissertation explores some methods and algorithms in this area, especially in pedigrees.

The human SOX18 gene: cDNA cloning and high resolution mapping

open access: yes, 2000
SOX genes comprise a family of genes that are related to the mammalian sex determining gene SRY and these genes play key roles during animal development. We report here cloning and characterisation of the human SOX18 gene.

Prediction of IBD based on population history for fine gene mapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A novel multiple regression method (RM) is developed to predict identity-by-descent probabilities at a locus L (IBDL), among individuals without pedigree, given information on surrounding markers and population history.

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

From QTL to candidate gene: Genetical genomics of simple and complex traits in potato using a pooling strategy

open access: yes, 2010
Background Utilization of the natural genetic variation in traditional breeding programs remains a major challenge in crop plants. The identification of candidate genes underlying, or associated with, phenotypic trait QTLs is desired for effective marker

Genetic Analysis and Mapping of the Purple Gene in Purple Heading Chinese Cabbage

open access: yesHorticultural Plant Journal, 2016
To analyze genetic linkage and map purple gene (BrPur) controlling purple inner leaves trait of Chinese cabbage, a F2 population was constructed by selfing a F1 plant from homozygous purple heading line ‘14S839’ and homozygous orange heading line ‘14S162’

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Plant Defense Genes Associated with Quantitative Resistance to Potato Late Blight in Solanum phureja × Dihaploid S. tuberosum Hybrids

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2002
Markers corresponding to 27 plant defense genes were tested for linkage disequilibrium with quantitative resistance to late blight in a diploid potato population that had been used for mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for late blight resistance ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.
