In silico prediction of the enzymes involved in the degradation of the herbicide molinate by Gulosibacter molinativorax ON4T

Scientific Reports, 2022
Gulosibacter molinativorax ON4T is the only known organism to produce molinate hydrolase (MolA), which catalyses the breakdown of the thiocarbamate herbicide into azepane-1-carboxylic acid (ACA) and ethanethiol.

Transcriptomic studies reveal a key metabolic pathway contributing to a well-maintained photosynthetic system under drought stress in foxtail millet (Setaria italica L.) [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Drought stress is one of the most important abiotic factors limiting crop productivity. A better understanding of the effects of drought on millet (Setaria italica L.) production, a model crop for studying drought tolerance, and the underlying molecular ...

Argonaute3-SF3B3 complex controls pre-mRNA splicing to restrain type 2 immunity

Cell Reports, 2023
Summary: Argonaute (AGO) proteins execute microRNA (miRNA)-mediated gene silencing. However, it is unclear whether all 4 mammalian AGO proteins (AGO1, AGO2, AGO3, and AGO4) are required for miRNA activity. We generate Ago1, Ago3, and Ago4-deficient mice (

A genome-wide survey of mutations in the Jurkat cell line

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background The Jurkat cell line has an extensive history as a model of T cell signaling. But at the turn of the 21st century, some expression irregularities were observed, raising doubts about how closely the cell line paralleled normal human T cells ...

Metagenomic Analysis of the Enteric RNA Virome of Infants from the Oukasie Clinic, North West Province, South Africa, Reveals Diverse Eukaryotic Viruses

Viruses, 2020
Establishing a diverse gut microbiota after birth is essential for preventing illnesses later in life. However, little knowledge exists about the total viral population (virome) present in the gut of infants during the early developmental stage, with RNA
