Biochemical and structural characterization of a tail‐spike protein with depolymerase activity identified in a marine podovirus

Acta Crystallographica Section D, EarlyView.
The marine tail‐spike protein Dpo31 degrades the exopolysaccharide of its host and has structural features similar to those of other members of this protein class, despite similarity not being detected at the sequence level.Marine phages are, through the infection of their bacterial hosts, key regulators of microbiome and carbon fluxes in the ocean ...

Calcitonin‐like diuretic hormone influences reproduction in adult female Rhodnius prolixus

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Highlights • CT/DH‐like immunoreactivity is present in female reproductive tissues • CT/DH receptor transcripts are expressed in the fat body and ovaries • RNAi knockdown of CT/DH receptors reduces egg number and hatching rate • Rhopr‐CT/DH increases RhoprVg1 and RhoprVgR expression in ovaries in vitro • Rhopr‐CT/DH stimulates oviduct contractions in a

Mainland diversification and recent island lineages in the reduviid genus Tapirocoris: an integrative taxonomic framework with four new species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Using an integrative taxonomic framework that combines COI DNA barcodes, geometric morphometrics and phylogeography, we revise the assassin bug genus Tapirocoris and recover seven well‐supported species, including four newly described cryptic species.

Comparative Satellitomics in Arowanas (Telostei, Osteoglossiformes) Sheds Light on the Evolution of Ancient Satellite DNAs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work focused on arowana fishes (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) as a model; their widespread intercontinental distribution and basal phylogenetic position within Teleostei make them a compelling model for evolutionary research, especially in the realm of satDNA molecular evolution. Through the integration of genomic and chromosomal data, we analyzed

Sensory Biology of the Franciscana (Pontoporia blainvillei, Pontoporiidae, Cetartiodactyla): Ontogenetic Modifications of Vibrissae and Vibrissal Crypts

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...
