Programme on establishing a semi-free population of Przewalski's horse in Orenburg State Nature Reserve: the first successful project on the reintroduction of the species in Russia

open access: yesNature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2019
The Przewalski's horse Equus ferus przewalskii is the only wild representative of the subgenus true horses left in the world. This article discusses the history of projects on the reintroduction of the Przewalski's horse in Russia and compares two ...

Biochemical Engineering Perspective on cGAS: From Enzyme Discovery to Potential Industrial Application. [PDF]

open access: yesChembiochem
This review examines the structural and enzymatic properties of cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase, including substrate promiscuity, homologs, and engineered variants. In addition, it evaluates potential expression systems for large‐scale enzyme production and analyzes reaction and purification strategies for the synthesis of cyclic dinucleotides to connect ...

Fecal Material of Captive Wild Animals as Source of CAZymes With Application Potential. [PDF]

open access: yesChembiochem
With the goal to identify a novel resource of enzymes, we tested for the potential of fecal metagenomes of captive wild animals to provide CAZymes. Our data show that CAZymes profiles differed between animals with varying gut physiology and diet, and that metagenomes of captive wild animals can be considered source of diverse CAZymes including rare and

Imputed genomes of historical horses provide insights into modern breeding

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Historical genomes can provide important insights into recent genomic changes in horses, especially the development of modern breeds. In this study, we characterized 8.7 million genomic variants from a panel of 430 horses from 73 breeds ...

ASSOCIATIVE BEHAVIOUR IN PRZEWALSKI’S HORSES REINTRODUCED INTO MONGOLIA [PDF]

open access: yesNature Conservation Research, 2019
Allogrooming is an important associative behaviour in social mammals that has hygienic and/or social functions and may be mediated by kin selection or reciprocity. Equids exhibit allogrooming and another associative behaviour, stand resting in close proximity.
