Mare Geneticum: Balancing Governance of Marine Genetic Resources in International Waters [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Journal of Marine and Coastal Law, 2018
Abstract A fair and effective regime regulating benefit-sharing of marine genetic resources (mgr) in areas beyond national jurisdiction (abnj) must consider the inclusion of developing states, support scientific research and safeguard investments of the private sector. The present innovative proposal ensures a delicate balance through an approach based

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

Transcriptomic insights into the resistance mechanism of Penaeus vannamei against highly lethal Vibrio parahaemolyticus

open access: yesScientific Reports
Highly lethal Vibrio disease (HLVD) caused by a virulent strain of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (Vp HLVD), which poses a significant threat to Penaeus vannamei post-larvae, leads to substantial mortality and economic losses.

Arcobacteraceae are ubiquitous mixotrophic bacteria playing important roles in carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur cycling in global oceans

open access: yesmSystems
Mixotrophy is an important trophic strategy for bacterial survival in the ocean. However, the global relevance and identity of the major mixotrophic taxa remain largely elusive. Here, we combined phylogenetic, metagenomic, and metatranscriptomic analyses

Functionalizing Micro‐to‐Mesoscopic Electrode Architectures for Regulating Electron Transfer Behaviors in Electrocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A systematic review is conducted to assess the influence of electrode architecture across micro‐ to mesoscopic length scales on electron‐transfer pathways in electrocatalysis. We discuss the structure‐activity relationships in electrocatalytic applications, including resource recovery and environmental remediation, and provide cost‐effective, efficient

Characterization of two novel chemolithoautotrophic bacteria of Sulfurovum from marine coastal environments and further comparative genomic analyses revealed species differentiation among deep-sea hydrothermal vent and non-vent origins

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Bacteria of the genus Sulfurovum within the class Campylobacteria are widespread in global oceans and are predominant in sulfide-rich environments. However, little is known about their adaptation to such harsh environments owing to their resistance to ...

Maintenance of genetic diversity: challenges for management of marine resources

open access: yes, 2002
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.There are three general classes of threat to biodiversity at the gene level: 1) extinction, which results in complete and irreversible loss of genes; 2) hybridization, which may cause re-arrangement of co-adapted genes and loss of adaptability to local conditions, and 3) reduction of ...

Access to and use of marine genetic resources: understanding the legal framework

open access: yesNatural Product Reports, 2014
With the adoption of the Nagoya Protocol in 2010, an additional legal instrument under the Convention on Biological Diversity (1992), the legal landscape surrounding the access to and utilization of genetic resources will change. This is likely to impact working procedures for scientists, turning pre-existing ethics into legal obligations.

Ultrafast Thermal Shock Synthesis of CuNiSnLa Medium‐Entropy Metallic Glass for Sustainable Nitrogen Fixation via Plasma‐Coupled Electrocatalysis

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work introduces an ultrafast thermal shock strategy to synthesize a CuNiSnLa medium‐entropy metallic glass (MEMG). The rapid heating and cooling process generates a robust, highly active catalyst for electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia (NRA).
