Tumour Cell Size Control and Its Impact on Tumour Cell Function

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
The regulatory mechanism of the size of tumour cells and its impact on the functions of tumour cells, as well as a summary of potential therapeutic targets for the corresponding mechanisms. ABSTRACT Cell size is an important component of cell morphological characteristics.

Five nuclear protein-coding markers for establishing a robust phylogenetic framework of niphargid crustaceans (Niphargidae: Amphipoda) and new molecular sequence data

Data in Brief, 2019
The data presented here includes selection of 5 successfully amplified protein-coding markers for inferring phylogenetic relationships of the family of amphipod crustaceans Niphargidae. These markers have been efficiently amplified from niphargid samples

Biochemical characterization of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinases from multiple species of brown algae

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) is involved in the conversion of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to oxaloacetate (OAA). In addition to playing a role in gluconeogenesis in various organisms, PEPCK also functions in the C4 cycle to concentrate CO2 for photosynthesis in some C4 plants.

The Role of Tyrosine 207 in the Reaction Catalyzed by Saccharomyces cerevisiae phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase

Biological Research, 2010
The functional signifcance of tyrosine 207 of Saccharomyces cerevisiae phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase was explored by examining the kinetic properties of the Tyr207Leu mutant. The variant enzyme retained the structural characteristics of the wild-type

How evolution repeatedly builds complexity: a case study with C4 photosynthesis in Blepharis (Acanthaceae)

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary With over 60 parallel origins representing evolutionary replicates, C4 photosynthesis is well‐suited for studying complex trait evolution. However, lineages with diverse C3–C4 intermediate species are scarce, leaving uncertainty in models of C4 evolution.

Critical roles of endogenous glucocorticoids for disease tolerance in malaria

, 2019
During malaria, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is activated and glucocorticoid (GC) levels are increased, but their essential roles have been largely overlooked.

Conserved spatial patterning of gene expression in independent lineages of C4 plants

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary C4 photosynthesis enhances carbon fixation efficiency by reducing photorespiration through the use of an oxygen‐insensitive carboxylase and spatial separation of photosynthesis between mesophyll and bundle sheath cells. The C4 pathway has evolved independently in > 60 plant lineages, but molecular mechanisms underpinning this convergence remain

Environmental factors have a greater influence on photosynthetic capacity in C4 plants than biochemical subtypes or growth forms

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Our understanding of how photosynthetic capacity varies among C4 species and across growth and measurement conditions remains limited. We collated 1696 CO2 response curves of net CO2 assimilation rate (A/Ci curves) from C4 species grown and measured at various environmental conditions and used these data to estimate the apparent maximum ...

Polo‐like kinases and UV‐induced skin carcinogenesis: What we know and what's next

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
The polo‐like kinase (PLK) family plays distinct and critical roles in the regulation of cell cycle progression, and its dysregulation has been implicated in various cancers. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a well‐established environmental factor in the development of skin cancer.
