Control Strategies in Guanine Biocrystallization
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.Biological guanine crystals produce spectacular photonic phenomena in animals and hold great promise as new, sustainable optical materials. We review how organisms precisely control the structure, morphologies, and resulting optical properties of these crystals using a set of ingenious ‘design’ strategies, including control of pH, template‐directed ...

Blocked dihydropteridines as nitric oxide synthase activators [PDF]
, 2010 It has been shown that 6-acetyl-7,7-dimethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteridin-4(3H)-one can act as a competent cofactor for the production of nitric oxide by neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS).

Pteridines, 1993 In order to carry out a genetic and biochemical analysis of pteridin pathway eye colour loci, sixteen strains of five eye colour mutants of Drosophila melanogaster (2 dke, 7 sf. 3 se, 3 Hnr and 1 bw) from natural populations were used.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.In this study, we tested whether white and yellow morphs of the common wall lizard (Podarcis muralis) adopt alternative strategies shaped by the immuno‐competence handicap hypotheses (ICHH). We found that testosterone‐induced immune suppression was stronger in white males, while aggression decreased in both morphs.

International Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.Conventional dermoscopy provided higher scores than ultraviolet‐induced fluorescence dermoscopy for parallel furrow pattern, parallel ridge pattern (PRP), fibrillar pattern, dots/clods, radial lines, blue–white structureless areas and blotch, and outperformed sub‐ultraviolet reflectance dermoscopy (sUVRD) for PRP and blue–white structureless areas ...

Free amino acids in a cave beetle \u3cem\u3eDarlingtonea kentuckensis\u3c/em\u3e Valentine (Coleoptera: Carabidae) [PDF]
, 1974 Free amino acids of Darlingtonea kentuckensis were investigated by two-dimensional, thin-layer chromatography on Silica Gel G. Thirteen amino acids which could be identifìed (alanine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine and/or leucine, lysine ...

A Simple Method for RNA‐Seq of Manually Isolated Chromatophores in Oryzias Fishes
Development, Growth &Differentiation, Volume 68, Issue 3, April 2026.ABSTRACT RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) has become an essential tool for analyzing gene expression and exploring cell type–specific transcriptomes. However, sample preparation and quality control remain challenging, as current approaches typically rely on dissecting tissues containing mixed cell populations or using flow cytometry to isolate fluorescently ...

First Synthesis of Asperopterin A, an Isoxanthopterin Glycoside from Aspergillus Oryzae [PDF]
, 2013 The key precursor, N-2-(N,N -dimethylaminomethylene)-6-hydroxymethyl-8-methyl-3-[2-(4-nitrophenyl)ethyl]-7-xanthopterin (16) was efficiently prepared from 2,5-diamino-6-methylamino-3H-pyrimidin-4-one (5) and ethyl 3-(tert-butyldimethylsilyloxy)-2 ...
