Genome size variation and polyploidy prevalence in the genus Eragrostis are associated with the global dispersal in arid area

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023
BackgroundBiologists have long debated the drivers of the genome size evolution and variation ever since Darwin. Assumptions for the adaptive or maladaptive consequences of the associations between genome sizes and environmental factors have been ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Untangling Community Assembly Through Functional Traits and Phylogenetic Alpha Diversity in Subtropical Karst Forests

Ecology and Evolution
Taxonomic diversity is insufficient to fully characterize species co‐existence in forest ecosystems. Incorporating trait‐based and phylogenetic data into studies of communities provides insight into the mechanisms by which coexistence emerges and is ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
