Abstract SUPV3L1 encodes a helicase that is mainly localized in the mitochondria. It has been shown in vitro to possess both double‐stranded RNA and DNA unwinding activity that is ATP‐dependent. Here we report the first two patients for this gene who presented with a homozygous preliminary stop codon resulting in a C‐terminal truncation of the SUPV3L1 ...

Comparative genomics provides structural and functional insights into Bacteroides RNA biology
Most of our knowledge of bacterial regulatory RNAs and their associated proteins stems from model organisms such as Escherichia coli and Salmonella enterica. In contrast, the RNA biology of Bacteroides spp.—an important component of the human gut microbiota—is significantly understudied.

The Mystery of Exosomes in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is one of the common pregnancy complications, which increases the risk of short‐term and long‐term adverse consequences in both the mother and offspring. However, the pathophysiological mechanism of GDM is still poorly understood.

Systematic identification of gene families for use as markers for phylogenetic and phylogeny- driven ecological studies of bacteria and archaea and their major subgroups [PDF]
With the astonishing rate that the genomic and metagenomic sequence data sets are accumulating, there are many reasons to constrain the data analyses.

Summary High‐throughput phenotyping is increasingly becoming an important tool for rapid advancement of genetic gain in breeding programmes. Manual phenotyping of vascular bundles is tedious and time‐consuming, which lags behind the rapid development of functional genomics in maize.

Redox stress defines the small artery vasculopathy of hypertension: how do we bridge the bench-to-bedside gap? [PDF]
Although convincing experimental evidence demonstrates the importance of vascular reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), oxidative stress, and perturbed redox signaling as causative processes in the vasculopathy of hypertension, this has not ...

Methylation of miRNAs at the 2′-hydroxyl group on the ribose at 3′-end (2′-O-methylation, 2′Ome) is critical for miRNA function in plants and Drosophila. Whether this methylation phenomenon exists for mammalian miRNA remains unknown.
