Large-scale and significant expression from pseudogenes in Sodalis glossinidius – a facultative bacterial endosymbiont [PDF]
The majority of bacterial genomes have high coding efficiencies, but there are some genomes of intracellular bacteria that have low gene density. The genome of the endosymbiont Sodalis glossinidius contains almost 50 % pseudogenes containing mutations ...

Summary Invertase (EC.3.2.1.26), a key enzyme in sucrose breakdown, is crucial for cellulose synthesis. However, the function of the vacuolar invertase (VINV) in woody plants remains unclear. In this study, transgenic lines of Populus trichocarpa Torr. and Gray were generated to investigate the role of PtrVINV2 in wood formation and under high salinity

Medicago truncatula and water deficit: exploring a new method for trehalose 6-phosphate quantification and characterization of three abscisic acid responsive promoters [PDF]
Condições ambientais adversas limitam fortemente o crescimento de plantas, levando a quebras anuais de produtividade em explorações agrícolas. Dos stresses vegetais, a falta de água é o factor que mais limita a produção.

THADA regulates the organismal balance between energy storage and heat production [PDF]
Human susceptibility to obesity is mainly genetic, yet the underlying evolutionary drivers causing variation from person to person are not clear. One theory rationalizes that populations that have adapted to warmer climates have reduced their metabolic ...

Transcriptomic analysis of Ascaris suum larvae during their hepatopulmonary migration [PDF]
Common roundworms are important intestinal nematodes of man (Ascaris lumbricoides) and pig (Ascaris suum). During the first stages of the infection, the larvae of these parasites undergo a hepatopulmonary migration.

Macrophage-derived upd3 Cytokine causes impaired glucose homeostasis and reduced lifespan in drosophila fed a lipid-rich diet [PDF]
Long-term consumption of fatty foods is associated with obesity, macrophage activation and inflammation, metabolic imbalance, and a reduced lifespan. We took advantage of Drosophila genetics to investigate the role of macrophages and the pathway(s) that ...

The food enzyme trehalase (α,α‐trehalase glucohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.28) is produced with a genetically modified Trichoderma reesei DP‐Nzs51 by Danisco US Inc. The genetic modifications do not give rise to safety concerns.

Trehalose is required for the acquisition of tolerance to a variety of stresses in the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans [PDF]
Trehalose is a non-reducing disaccharide found at high concentrations in Aspergillus nidulans conidia and rapidly degraded upon induction of conidial germination. Furthermore, trehalose is accumulated in response to a heat shock or to an oxidative shock.
