The Roots of Bioinformatics

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2010
Every new scientific discipline or methodology reaches a point in its maturation where it is fruitful for it to turn its gaze inward, as well as backward. Such introspection helps to clarify the essential structure of a field of study, facilitating communication, pedagogy, standardization, and the like, while retrospection aids this process by ...

Exon 7 splicing of ERα predicts poor prognosis and increases phenotypic heterogeneity in luminal a subtype breast cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ERα splice variant ERα∆7 lacks the C‐terminus, and its expression may change phenotypes of breast cancers. Our results showed that ERα∆7 is found in the luminal A subtype, and elevated ERα∆7 levels are linked to improved cell survival with lower proliferation and migration.

Getting to the root of root–microbe interactions [PDF]

open access: yesScience Progress
Microbial relationships with roots influence many ecosystem functions and nutrient fluxes, including their sometimes-profound effects on plant health and productivity. Fine roots were often classified with a diameter less than 2 mm, but fine roots under that size perform distinct functional roles in the environment.

Combined 5‐aminolevulinic acid and ferric ammonium citrate treatment promotes hair follicle growth by activating dermal papilla cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
5‐Aminolevulinic acid combined with ferric ammonium citrate (5‐ALA/FAC) stimulates dermal papilla cell activity and promotes hair follicle growth. The treatment enhances ERK and AKT signaling, increases hair‐inductive gene expression, and restores dermal papilla function suppressed by dihydrotestosterone and oxidative stress, resulting in enhanced hair

Possibilities of influencing the rooting quality of Norway spruce (Picea abies [L.] Karst.) cuttings

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science, 2004
The influence of the date of cutting collection and cutting position in the crown on rooting quality was evaluated in cuttings taken from seven-year ortets.

Early selection of Cabralea canjerana for propagation by mini-cutting [PDF]

open access: yesPesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2018
: The objective of this work was to define an early selection strategy to identify Cabralea canjerana (Meliaceae) clones with high multiplication rate. A mini-garden of 109 clones of canjerana seedlings was established in a completely randomized design ...

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Adventitious root formation in the cloned microcuttings of Prunus avium

open access: yesActa Biologica Slovenica, 1989
The rhizogenesis of the wild cherry shoots cloned in vitro has been investigated. The best re­ sults (70-90 % rooting) in the in vitro conditions were achieved by placing the shoots on an agar solidi­ fied mod.

Root patterning: SHORT ROOT on the move [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2001
The radial pattern of the plant root is determined by the action of two transcription factors, SHORT ROOT and SCARECROW, which are produced in different cell types. The SHORT ROOT protein has now been shown to move from cell to cell, regulating transcription of the downstream SCARECROW gene in the target cells.

The skills required for transition to university and study in biological sciences: A student perspective

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bioscience students were asked for their opinions on the value and teaching of skills. 204 responded that teamwork, time management and study skills are necessary to reach University, that scientific writing, research, laboratory and presentation skills are taught effectively during their studies, while other skills are gained inherently through study ...
