Identification of genomic regions associated with partial resistance to Aphanomyces root rot in pea
The Plant Genome, Volume 18, Issue 4, December 2025.Abstract Root rot caused by Aphanomyces euteiches is a major concern in pea (Pisum sativum L.). The lack of other effective control strategies makes crucial the development of resistant varieties. Although partial resistance has been reported, its quantitative inheritance, the association of resistance‐linked genomic regions with unfavorable agronomic ...

Biosynthesis of GDP-fucose and other sugar nucleotides in the blood-stages of Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
, 2013 Carbohydrate structures play important roles in many biological processes, including cell adhesion, cell-cell communication, and host-pathogen interactions. Sugar nucleotides are activated forms of sugars used by the cell as donors for most glycosylation

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.A transposon insertion sequencing approach revealed that the novel phage ΦXhv‐1 targets Xanthomonas hortorum pv. vitians through LPS O‐antigen recognition. Mutations in LPS conferring phage resistance reduce bacterial motility and virulence, highlighting a trade‐off that may naturally constrain resistance development and support the sustainable phage ...

Investigation of the biosynthesis of exopolysaccharides within the biofilm matrix of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiea : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Microbiology and Genetics at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2017 Polysaccharides are highly abundant natural biopolymers, which have biologically significant structural functions in living organisms. Various polysaccharides, with specific physicochemical properties, contribute to biofilm formation; defined as cell ...

Effect of mutations found in carbohydrate‐deficient glycoprotein syndrome type IA on the activity of phosphomannomutase 2 [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1999 Seven mutant forms of human phosphomannomutase 2 were produced in Escherichia coli and purified. These mutants had a V max of 0.2–50% of the wild enzyme and were unstable. The least active protein (R141H) bears a very frequent mutation, which has never been found in the homozygous state whereas the second least active protein (D188G) corresponds to a ...

Stroke-Like Episodes in PMM2-CDG: When the Lack of Other Evidence Is the Only Evidence
Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2021 Phosphomannomutase 2 deficiency (PMM2-CDG) is the most frequent congenital disorder of glycosylation. PMM2-CDG patients develop chronic cerebellar atrophy as a neurological hallmark.

Clinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 731-741, December 2025.This study reports six new cases of 22q13.2 duplication and triplication, including the TCF20 gene, associated with neurodevelopmental disorders and various morphological and systemic abnormalities. The findings suggest a variable expressivity, but their complete penetrance remains uncertain compared to well‐established loss‐of‐function variants ...

Uncovering regulatory pathways that affect hematopoietic stem cell function using 'genetical genomics' [PDF]
, 2005 We combined large-scale mRNA expression analysis and gene mapping to identify genes and loci that control hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) function. We measured mRNA expression levels in purified HSCs isolated from a panel of densely genotyped recombinant ...

Potential and pitfalls in the genetic diagnosis of kidney diseases [PDF]
, 2017 Next-generation sequencing has dramatically decreased the cost of gene sequencing, facilitating the simultaneous analysis of multiple genes at the same time; obtaining a genetic result for an individual patient has become much easier.

Optimizing (Bio) Catalysis with Liquid‐Liquid Phase Separation Systems
ChemSystemsChem, Volume 7, Issue 6, November 2025.This review highlights how LLPS creates membraneless compartments involved in different scenarios in nature. It further explores different examples that focus on the development of synthetic coacervates that enhance catalytic efficiency by concentrating reactants, or by the direct influence of the coacervates building blocks themselves.
