An optimized base editor with efficient C-to-T base editing in zebrafish

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2020
Background Zebrafish is a model organism widely used for the understanding of gene function, including the fundamental basis of human disease, enabled by the presence in its genome of a high number of orthologs to human genes.

Regulation of genes involved in carnitine homeostasis by PPARa across different species (rat, mouse, pig, cattle, chicken, and human) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Recent studies in rodents convincingly demonstrated that PPAR-alpha is a key regulator of genes involved in carnitine homeostasis, which serves as a reasonable explanation for the phenomenon that energy deprivation and fibrate treatment, both of which ...

Competitive oxidation and ubiquitylation on the evolutionarily conserved cysteine confer tissue-specific stabilization of Insig-2

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
The protein Insig-2 negatively regulates lipid biosynthesis and is short-lived in liver cells but stable in muscle cells. Here, the authors show that in muscle cells producing reactive oxygen species, there is increased oxidation compared to ...

Genome-Wide Insight into Profound Effect of Carbon Catabolite Repressor (Cre1) on the Insect-Pathogenic Lifecycle of Beauveriabassiana

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
Carbon catabolite repression (CCR) is critical for the preferential utilization of glucose derived from environmental carbon sources and regulated by carbon catabolite repressor A (Cre1/CreA) in filamentous fungi.

Integrative concept of homeostasis: translating physiology into medicine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
To truly understand living systems they must be viewed as a whole. In order to achieve this and to come to some law to which living systems obey, data obtained on cells, tissues and organs should be integrated.

Intestinal stem cell proliferation and epithelial homeostasis in the adult Drosophila midgut [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Adult tissue homeostasis requires a tight balance between the removal of old or damaged cells and the production of new ones. Such processes are usually driven by dedicated stem cells that reside within specific tissue locations or niches.

N4-Cytosine DNA Methylation Is Involved in the Maintenance of Genomic Stability in Deinococcus radiodurans

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
DNA methylation serves as a vital component of restriction-modification (R-M) systems in bacteria, where it plays a crucial role in defense against foreign DNA.

Combination therapy with protein kinase inhibitor H89 and Tetrandrine elicits enhanced synergistic antitumor efficacy

open access: yesJournal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2018
Background Tetrandrine, a bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloid that was isolated from the medicinal plant Stephania tetrandrine S. Moore, was recently identified as a novel chemotherapy drug. Tetrandrine exhibited a potential antitumor effect on multiple types

Risk homeostasis in information security:challenges in confirming existence and verifying impact [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The central premise behind risk homeostasis theory is that humans adapt their behaviors, based on external factors, to align with a personal risk tolerance level.

The Zinc Finger Transcription Factor Fts2 Represses the Yeast-to-Filament Transition in the Dimorphic Yeast Yarrowia lipolytica

open access: yesmSphere, 2022
The yeast-to-filament transition is an important cellular response to environmental stimulations in dimorphic fungi. In addition to activators, there are repressors in the cells to prevent filament formation, which is important to keep the cells in the ...
