Active DNA demethylation in human postmitotic cells correlates with activating histone modifications, but not transcription levels [PDF]
Background: In mammals, the dynamics of DNA methylation, in particular the regulated, active removal of cytosine methylation, has remained a mystery, partly due to the lack of appropriate model systems to study DNA demethylation.

Phylogenetic and environmental DNA insights into emerging aquatic parasites: implications for risk management. [PDF]
Species translocation leads to disease emergence in native species of considerable economic importance. Generalist parasites are more likely to be transported, become established and infect new hosts, thus their risk needs to be evaluated.

Deciphering the molecular adaptation of the king scallop (Pecten maximus) to heat stress using transcriptomics and proteomics [PDF]
Background The capacity of marine species to survive chronic heat stress underpins their ability to survive warming oceans as a result of climate change. In this study RNA-Seq and 2-DE proteomics were employed to decipher the molecular response of the

BABY BOOM target genes provide diverse entry points into cell proliferation and cell growth pathways [PDF]
Ectopic expression of the Brassica napus BABY BOOM (BBM) AP2/ERF transcription factor is sufficient to induce spontaneous cell proliferation leading primarily to somatic embryogenesis, but also to organogenesis and callus formation.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis - the 10 years of epidemiological and diagnostics studies [PDF]
Tuberculosis (ТВ) is the main bacterial pathogen that causes more deaths than AIDS, malaria and all infectious diseases. The unusual long doubling time (about 24h), highly hydrophobic cell envelope resistant to chemical lysis was the reason to delay ...

Tuberculosis: Epidemiology and Diagnosis [PDF]
Despite the discovery of the tubercle bacillus more than a hundred years ago, and all the advances in our knowledge of the disease since then, tuberculosis still remains one of the major health problems facing mankind, particularly in developing ...

Cellular response to efficient dUTPase RNAi silencing in stable HeLa cell lines perturbs expression levels of genes involved in thymidylate metabolism. [PDF]
dUTPase is involved in preserving DNA integrity in cells. We report an efficient dUTPase silencing by RNAi-based system in stable human cell line. Repression of dUTPase induced specific expression level increments for thymidylate kinase and thymidine ...
