Anthropomorphization as a method of working with indirect data
Logos i EthosIn ethology, anthropomorphization – the attribution of uniquely human characteristics to animals – is often criticized as unscientific. However, this approach seeks to reveal analogies between different species, a practice that finds parallels in ...

High connectivity of animal populations in deep-sea hydrothermal vent fields in the Central Indian Ridge relevant to its geological setting. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Dispersal ability plays a key role in the maintenance of species in spatially and temporally discrete niches of deep-sea hydrothermal vent environments. On the basis of population genetic analyses in the eastern Pacific vent fields, dispersal of animals ...

Human gut, breast, and oral microbiome in breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Frontiers in Oncology, 2023 IntroductionDysbiosis characterises breast cancer through direct or indirect interference in a variety of biological pathways; therefore, specific microbial patterns and diversity may be a biomarker for the diagnosis and prognosis of breast cancer ...

Adipocyte‐Derived Leptolin Enhances Energy Expenditure and Prevents Obesity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.We identified a novel adipokine, which we named leptolin. In humans, leptolin levels in white adipose tissue were positively correlated with exercise and negatively associated with body mass index. We observed elevated leptolin in serum from athletes and lower leptolin in serum from obese individuals.

Predicting horizontal gene transfers with perfect transfer networks
Algorithms for Molecular BiologyBackground Horizontal gene transfer inference approaches are usually based on gene sequences: parametric methods search for patterns that deviate from a particular genomic signature, while phylogenetic methods use sequences to reconstruct the gene and ...

Diversity and functional capabilities of the microbial metagenome in a potable water reuse system
Desalination and Water TreatmentThe direct and indirect potable reuse of wastewater has recently gained significant attention in water scarce regions globally. Some advanced treatment facilities utilize ozone and biological activated carbon (BAC) filtration to remove persistent low ...

Cross Kingdom Metabolic Engineering Paradigm Elevating Sustainable Protein Production
Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Confronting the dual crisis of escalating global protein demand and unsustainable agriculture necessitates transformative solutions. Here, we pioneer evolutionary insights from maize nitrogen optimization via asparagine synthetase (ASNS) to rewire metabolism in Pichia pastoris.

Generation of Monoclonal Antibodies against Variable Epitopes of the M Protein of Rabies Virus
Viruses, 2019 Rabies virus (RABV), the causative agent of rabies, is highly neurovirulent for warm-blooded animals with a mortality rate of up to 100%. The RABV matrix protein (M) is required for virus particle assembly and budding.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Dysregulated protein modifications drive tumorigenesis. RINES, an E3 ubiquitin ligase, represses tumor cell proliferation and metastasis by facilitating RING domain‐dependent, ubiquitin–proteasome‐mediated degradation of STAT3 and MYC, which consequently restrains cancer stemness and oncogenic progression.
