Novel Genomic and Evolutionary Perspective of Cyanobacterial tRNAs
Frontiers in Genetics, 2017 Transfer RNA (tRNA) plays a central role in protein synthesis and acts as an adaptor molecule between an mRNA and an amino acid. A tRNA has an L-shaped clover leaf-like structure and contains an acceptor arm, D-arm, D-loop, anti-codon arm, anti-codon ...

The phylogeography of red and yellow coppersmith barbets (Aves: Megalaima haemacephala)
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2014 Understanding the evolution of color in birds is important because it is used for both inter- and intra-specific communication and is often linked to other important traits including life history, behavior, immunology and mate choice.

The Globin Gene Family in Arthropods: Evolution and Functional Diversity
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 Globins are small heme-proteins that reversibly bind oxygen. Their most prominent roles in vertebrates are the transport and storage of O2 for oxidative energy metabolism, but recent research has suggested alternative, non-respiratory globin functions ...

Coevolution Theory of the Genetic Code at Age Forty: Pathway to Translation and Synthetic Life
Life, 2016 The origins of the components of genetic coding are examined in the present study. Genetic information arose from replicator induction by metabolite in accordance with the metabolic expansion law.

Expression of the C-allele of intronic rs8192675 in SLC2A2 is associated with improved glucose response to metformin [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular BiologyGlucose is a critical nutrient for energy metabolism. The SLC2A2 gene is essential for glucose sensing and homeostasis, as it encodes the facilitated glucose transporter GLUT2. During diabetes treatment, the C-allele of rs8192675 in SLC2A2 has been found

Improved osteogenic vector for non-viral gene therapy [PDF]
European Cells & Materials, 2016 Therapeutic compensation of deficient bone regeneration is a challenging task and a topic of on-going search for novel treatment strategies. One promising approach for improvement involves non-viral gene delivery using the bone morphogenetic protein-2 ...

A New Reference Genome Assembly for the Microcrustacean Daphnia pulex
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017 Comparing genomes of closely related genotypes from populations with distinct demographic histories can help reveal the impact of effective population size on genome evolution. For this purpose, we present a high quality genome assembly of Daphnia pulex (
