Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Tracing the evolutionary pathway: on the origin of mitochondria and eukaryogenesis
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.This study examines the stepwise transition from archaeal–bacterial associations to the emergence of eukaryotic cells. Metabolic cooperation and endosymbiosis fostered ecological and genetic integration, with extensive gene transfer reshaping host biology.

Biochemical and structural characterization of chlorite dismutase enzyme from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Chlorite dismutase (Cld) is a heme b oxidoreductase that can decompose chlorite (ClO2−$$ {\mathrm{ClO}}_2^{-} $$ or OClO−) into harmless chloride (Cl−) and dioxygen (O2) with high turnover rates. Cld was found to be involved in different biological processes, and the rare reaction it catalyzes makes it a prominent enzyme for different applications. The

Should We Advance Our Understanding of Immunoglobulin E in Viral Immunity?
Immunology, EarlyView.Immunoglobulin E has been extensively studied in allergies and parasitic diseases. Antigen‐specific IgE has been identified as part of the humoral response to viruses. This revision speculates on possible functionalities for IgE, such as neutralisation, cytotoxicity and immunopathology of viral diseases, and provide insights about gaps to fill in ...

Assembling large, complex environmental metagenomes
, 2012 The large volumes of sequencing data required to sample complex environments deeply pose new challenges to sequence analysis approaches. De novo metagenomic assembly effectively reduces the total amount of data to be analyzed but requires significant ...
