Cellular Responses to Tartrazine and Sulfanilic Acid Exposure in BEAS‐2B Cells: Viability, Apoptosis, and DNA Damage

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tartrazine is a synthetic azo dye widely used in food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic products, resulting in extensive human exposure, while its toxicity and that of its primary metabolite, sulfanilic acid, remain controversial. Considering the reported association of tartrazine with hypersensitivity and allergic‐like reactions, human bronchial ...

Persistent Gaps and Errors in Reference Databases Impede Ecologically Meaningful Taxonomy Assignments in 18S rRNA Studies: A Case Study of Terrestrial and Marine Nematodes

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA
In metabarcoding studies, Linnaean taxonomy assignments of Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) or Amplicon Sequence Variants (ASVs) underpin many downstream bioinformatics analyses and ecological interpretations of environmental DNA (eDNA) datasets ...

Biogeographical and biodiversity patterns of planktonic microeukaryotes along the tropical western to eastern Pacific Ocean transect revealed by metabarcoding

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Microeukaryotic plankton (0.2–200 µm), which are morphologically and genetically highly diverse, play a crucial role in ocean productivity and carbon consumption.

Organizational and Functional Principles of the Obligate Respiratory Chain Supercomplex

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
In this review we deliver a comprehensive structural analysis of the actinobacterial respiratory chain supercomplex and discuss the principles underlying the assembly of its supramolecular architecture. ABSTRACT Proton translocating respiratory chain complexes assemble into supramolecular structures in their native cellular environment, yet the ...

Geology defines microbiome structure and composition in nunataks and valleys of the Sør Rondane Mountains, East Antarctica

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Understanding the relation between terrestrial microorganisms and edaphic factors in the Antarctic can provide insights into their potential response to environmental changes. Here we examined the composition of bacterial and micro-eukaryotic communities

Rapid Adaptation to Road Salts in a Freshwater Microbial Eukaryote

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Abstract Humans are changing habitat for wildlife in myriad ways and for populations to persist, they must adapt to this change. In parts of the world that experience snow and ice, road salts are often used to make driving safer in the winter.

Calpain Proteases and the Evolving Signaling Network in Insect Embryonic Patterning

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
Insect embryonic Dorsal‐Ventral (DV) patterning relies on the BMP and Toll pathways to different extents. Calcium‐dependent cystein proteases of the Calpain family also exert an important function to pattern the DV axis. In Drosophila, Calpain A cleaves the Cactus/IkappaB inhibitor and modifies Toll signals in ventral regions of the embryo. In Rhodnius
