Remote Control of Eukaryotic Gene Expression by a Modular Ultrasound‐Responsive RNA Toolkit
Achieving remote control of biological processes remains a significant challenge in genetics. Although ultrasound has been employed to remotely regulate biological functions by targeting mechanosensitive ion channels, existing systems are constrained by the limited responsiveness of specific channels to specific ultrasound frequencies and their ...

Relaxing the Hypotheses of Symmetry and Time-Reversibility in Genome Evolutionary Models [PDF]
Various genome evolutionary models have been proposed these last decades to predict the evolution of a DNA sequence over time, essentially described using a mutation matrix. By essence, all of these models relate the evolution of DNA sequences to the computation of the successive powers of the mutation matrix.

Orphan proteins of unknown function in the mitochondrial intermembrane space proteome: new pathways and metabolic cross-talk [PDF]
The mitochondrial intermembrane space (IMS) is involved in protein transport, lipid homeostasis and metal ion exchange, while further acting in signalling pathways such as apoptosis.

Predicting the Evolution of Gene $ura3$ in the Yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae [PDF]
Since the late `60s, various genome evolutionary models have been proposed to predict the evolution of a DNA sequence as the generations pass. Most of these models are based on nucleotides evolution, so they use a mutation matrix of size 4x4. They encompass for instance the well-known models of Jukes and Cantor, Kimura, and Tamura.

RGC1/RGC2 deletions cause increased sensitivity to oxidative stress in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which can be overcome by constitutive nuclear Yap1 expression [PDF]
Oxidative stress mechanism in yeast presents an innovative pathway to understand in creating the next generation of antifungal drugs. Rgc1 and Rgc2 are paralogous proteins that regulate the Fps1 glycerol channel in hyperosmotic stress.

The Genetic Basis of Mutation Rate Variation in Yeast. [PDF]
Mutations are the root source of genetic variation and underlie the process of evolution. Although the rates at which mutations occur vary considerably between species, little is known about differences within species, or the genetic and molecular basis ...

Greek protected designation of origin Xinomavro wines are analyzed with ultra high performance liquid chromatography–trapped ion mobility spectrometry–quadrupole time of flight‐mass spectrometry (UHPLC‐TIMS‐QTOF‐MS). Both target and not‐target screening approaches are employed, leading to the identification and quantification of several polyphenols and

An excess of reactive oxygen species (ROS) can cause cell damage, and an accumulation of damage leads to cellular dysfunction resulting in a variety of diseases including abnormal aging, cancer, diabetes, and inflammation. In this study, feruloyl oligosaccharides (FOs) were obtained by solid‐state fermentation using wheat bran, and antioxidant activity

Morphology, cell division, and viability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae at high hydrostatic pressure [PDF]
High hydrostatic pressure is commonly encountered in many environments, but the effects of high pressure on eukaryotic cells have been understudied. To understand the effects of hydrostatic pressure in the model eukaryote, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we have performed quantitative experiments of cell division, cell morphology, and cell death under a wide
